Ive been thinking about this contest and the past contests here . All great ideas imho . Waaaaaay back when futures.io (formerly
BMT ) was a little baby and even before that Mike has been a consistent giver , a rarity in the self directed online trading world and he deserves a lot of credit so thanks Mike for your vision and insight .
Ill have time to consistently put my 2 cents in and intend to start a thread to share the stuff Ive learned all by myself while putting on live trades without blowing up my account . Ill describe how I had to recognize common sense decisions in a functional manner , stick by my decisions , trust myself no matter the results and
lots of other things that are easy to talk about and very difficult to practice .
I know that the things that were shared with me by selfless traders helped me avoid getting ran over by the market and even more importantly protected me from myself . So to share things here to give back and with a goal of preventing somebody or a lot of somebodies from getting eaten alive by the market is a pleasure . Being thanked lots of times is icing on the cake (hint) . I dont need a monitor or prizes and always
pay it forward to those who do actually need .
Reckon Ill call this thread " Common sense trading decisions " and Ill start it up saturday to capitalize on the contest , thanks .
Can you help answer these questions
