great question and one that never gets asked mostly because people dont read the entire thread.
the answer is simple.
a large percentage of my trading to this day IS daytrading but not forex.
why did i talk about it then and not now?
forex factory back then was about 50 people total and i never in a million years saw this happening to this thread. what started out to be "just another thread headed for oblivion" quickly became very serious stuff for a growing number of people. once i saw that i knew the right thing to do was to be upfront and honest. what is upfront and honest?
beginner daytraders never make it in this business. MOST position/swing traders dont make it long term.
I knew i stood a pretty good chance of helping a fair percentage of people find some position/swing trading success but daytrading is different.
You can give most traders a daytrading method that finds a decent profit 80 plus percent of the time and 80 plus percent of them will still fail and find a way to lose all there money.
i also knew when i quit talking about it that a certain percentage of people that followed my stuff would find success with the longer time frames and use the same material to find some success daytrading
my choice has been to let that happen naturally and its probably the single best decision i have ever made pertaining to this thread.
succesful daytraders are not born they are made. made by blood, sweat and tears and countless hours of brutal hard work and self discovery.
succesful daytrading is a personal journey after a succesful method is discovered. its 95 percent between the ears and psychological in virtually every respect.
