Continuing the discussion on the art of pattern recognition

…the video blog I posted last night has some good information on subjective pattern recognition and trade management, along with some specific comments on the art aspect of trading. It is a bit long for a video blog (thirteen minutes), but I think it significantly extends the discussion.

    A common message in trading is to sell your losers and let your winners run. The style presented seems to be managed trading with a high probability setup patter and target. Can you comment on “letting your winners run” in a future blog.

      One possible solution is to do both. In other words, take partial profits at a pretty “close” target (maybe 1X the initial trade risk) and then work on letting the other half run.
