Papa,

Thanks for the blatant honesty! I imagine that would be hard for most.

I agree with Mike. I think you are a good trader if you could recover within 2 weeks!

Good point. :(

Didn't mean to pound it in, just pointing it out with a possible solution. I used to trade like that w/ FOREX. Never 'got ahead' or 'recovered'. :(

Papa,

This may seem harsh, but I see you falling back on some 'tendencies'. The 2 steps backward to me seem to be not sticking to your PT's and Stops. That is it! :)

Papa,

1. Stops and R:R could kill you on a bad day (ranging). Curious if you have a daily loss limit just in case or a max # of bad trades?

2. With the trailing stops, I think you could...
