There are successful traders who make less when they are right than they lose when they are wrong.

I'm sure there are; Larry Connors RSI2 system comes to mind. However cutting winners short and letting losers run does not sit well with me.

Trading is being patient, while not in a trade, and waiting, and waiting some more, for your trade opportunity to develop.

Trading is being patient, once in a trade, and waiting, and waiting some more, for the eventual outcome to be fully revealed.

Be Patient and Trade Smart
