Trading Strategy Tips

  • If you try to stop and start executing your trading strategy you will not be successful.  Consistency is the key to trading success.
  • It's hard to pull the trigger after a big loss but you can't second guess yourself.  Even after a losing streak you must be able to trust your trading strategy and continue to follow any signals that it generates.
