Hi Everybody,
Yesterday was a brilliant example of how the use of correct position sizing can help you when a number of losses come through. If you look at the 3min ES chart, you can see that there were 3 -1R losses. On the surface this does not look good.
BUT, as we will see in the next post, all it takes is one good trade to put you back into Profit. So in reality, you do now need to have lots of profitable trades to make money trading, you just need to control you losses. This is a point that most amateur traders never seem to get or fully understand.
Thanks, Steve
PS, also please look at the Advanced Blog where you will see that the Advanced Traders among you would have avoided these losing trades anyway as they were “against” the 15min chart.
