I think it's important to note that you and I are essentially talking about two different things... day trading and investing. You are talking about day trading. I am talking about investing for the long term. We both are using risk management techniques. Personally, I'm not big on day trading. I see comparing day trading with a more long term, consistent investment approach as being kind of a tortoise and the hare parallel. But I'm not knocking what you're doing. It's just not right for me... just like what I'm doing isn't right for you. It's up to each individual to find an investment/trading method that is a good fit for their objectives, time horizon, temperament, and tolerance for risk.

Thanks for the discussion. Whether you and I agree or not, I think it's a topic of interest to many here. I don't think any of us want to see the "Latest & Greatest" turn into an investment forum. But don't stop posting on this topic when you have something to say.

Are we cool now?

We are. I appreciate the civility, I did not expect it to be something I was supposed to duck and cover on.
