Where's the blood? The sweat? The tears? You're just not trying hard enough...
I gave at the office, thanks.
Its all about what can I do in less than 2 hours a day.
I do like trading but why be a slave to it anymore.
I'm sure I can trade 8 hours a day and make 40 to 100 pips a day but why make a full-time job for myself.
Once I get a few hundred trades under my belt since I returned to only scalping, I'll have the beginnings of some data to make a proper analysis.
# of BE
# of Loss
# of Gains
Accuracy range - not just average or mean
Average # of pips per trade/ hour/day/week/month
With this information I can adjust Risk parameters to figure out my base lot size for Pips per 1%.
Its not really about % return its more about $/month but if I'm not outperforming other investment vehicles then why waste my own time at all.
2 hrs a day is about the perfect balance of work/life for me.
Especially when it pays minimum wage.
Factory worker wage would be INSANE!
