Here's a question for the live real money traders.

When do you consider what you take out of the market YOUR money? NOT your capital but the money you take off the traders in the live market.

For me it's when I am cashing the check at the bank and no other time.

As long as I am not going into MY money on a position I don't care at all because the money I took off them was never mine to begin with. If you think about that for a sec you get it.

Got filled on VG 3.18 yesterday. It's the only position I am actually trading percent gain on account. The goal is 20% then rinse and repeat on another position. There are so many set up's right now it's crazy.

I hope this one gets there quick

EDIT: VG closed at 3.25 at EOD. I am up +15 and small change already on it. COOL PT for the 20% gain is 3.83.

Here's another question for the real money traders.

How much do you take out of the market daily and keep? How many trades does it take you to get your money goal for the day?

TIA
