Trading Strategy Tips
- Most successful traders have the ability to be flexible. They don't jump from strategy to strategy but they constantly tweak their strategy based on lessons learned as their trading experience increases.
- All trading strategies will have bad periods. If the trading strategy is not yours and you don't understand why the strategy works you will abandon it during these drawdown periods.
- What works in the market is not going to feel good. Trading is hard, it's difficult and it's psychologically tough to do.
- Keep good records of all your trades. Having a track record is your greatest asset in trading.

Yes - 27%
No - 73%
You must have a clear entry trigger and take all the signals generated by your system. You cannot afford to miss a good trade or a good trend. You can't be afraid to take the trade.
You must also know where you are getting out of a trade before you get in it. Once you are in a trade you lose objectivity and it will be very hard to pull the trigger.
