all my trades are low risk- all my stops now are 10 points max, and if I make 4 losses in a day, I won't trade for 2 days...the reason why I only take 10 points is because, well, I'd rather have 10 points than none, simple as that. I bag my profits where many traders let a trade ride and go for the kill, many don't even move their stops to break even and let a good profit move to a loss! (Awful)...I look at a large move and take chucks of that move bit by bit....I personally feel that the FTSE will drop, BIG TIME!
My accumulation of positions is something I would NOT recommend to all traders, you need skill, money management, conviction that your trades are in the right direction, and BALLS!...Yes sometimes I max my trading limit, but thats only because I firmly believe it's worth it.
Finally, I keep my analysis simple. I have reverted from some very "sophisticated" technical/fundamental analysis to this, and this has been very profitable.
But then again, it could all blow up tomorw!
