ODT,

do you find nibbling at the markets easier/better than staying in for bigger bites?
I trade off 5-mins, but still try for 60, more recently 30-35 pips per trade. Its the nail-biting to-and-fro of the moves that cause me hassle.

you seem to just go and ratchet up lots of small winners.
doesnt taking small bites put extra pressure on you to get your entries perfect? added to which the cost of trading is multiplied manyfold as well, in terms of transaction costs, and/or SB spread.
or, does your mechanical trading mean you just plough through all signals, knowing the aggregate will be nett positive?

actually, same question for all, as the trades seem to be scalp trades!
(sorry: displacement activity between trades)

Yes I do not wait for 200 to 300 pip runs

No pressure, its actually pressure free .No emotions .

I go though my losing periods knowing my system will recover , and provide a profit.

Actually my strategy has an average win per trade of 7 pips.

I run my my trades , until the market hits my stops /trailing stops or b/e or t/p.there are no early exits.

Julian

My manual day trading method for calling needs refining.It is also not fair on anybody following my calls .I run simple set and forget systems,If I place a trade I will not close , until my stop is hit or my target is hit (normally 3 times s/l),that style is not suited for calling.This is why I need time to refine my system.

Have you tried pyramid trading with your trend line method?If will give huge profits on trending days , some trending days I get almost 200 pips per pair , I only trade and look for trends .

Yes I do increase and vary my stakes at times but not pyramiding as such. Why not call out all of your trades and units to give us an idea of what you do?
