    I didn't find it condescending at all, thank you for your advice, that's what i hope/think these forums are for.

    Timing

    Other than experience, is there a way to increase my skills at timing the trades for day trading? I'm about 6 months in to my very unprofitable trading career and I keep executing the same issue... I'm picking the right stocks and buying, they end up correcting or reacting and hitting my stop...
