Thanks, its coming together finally to have tradable plan AND be
consistent with it, thus if it doesn't work then adjust. There will
be times I wish I sold earlier just as wishing I held longer. But
consistently taking profits sounds good.
That's fantastic! I'm seeing it like I did when I played
baseball these days. I don't wish I hit a Homerun. I'm happy that I
doubled into the gap and scored a few runs. That kind of consistent
play is a significant contribution to winning games. One at bat at
a time. Sometimes it is ok to walk or take a day off if I'm
tired (sit out, walk away, not trade for some hours, etc.). Preset
orders and alerts are my friends so I don't need to watch every
tick.
Waiting for the close has been another strategy I've used to get
more full moves before adjusting. Of course each has its own risks
and rewards. Or run a hybrid.

Yes and I like Steve's plan of watching for a bottom, then wait
for a tradable higher low to form and ride that. Versus
trying to always catch the bottom (amost impossible for me).
Patience. will be watching NUGT/GDX
Great point, Matt has discussed waiting for it to take out the
above resistance as a trigger on those. Trade high prior day in
some cases.. No trigger, no trade. Great stuff man
