A Tale Of Two Traders - Which One Do You Want To Be? 

How Having The Proper Mind Set Will Make You A Winner

Today, let's talk about a tale of two traders. Let's assume that both traders have been trading for the same period of time. Both have the same starting capital, same trading dome, same market, and both are using the exact same trading system with precise entries and exits. We are going to leave the traders to trade for the next 60 days and see what results they have come with. Would you be surprised to find that one trader would have a 20% return and the other would have a loss of 40% during that same period. I am fascinated by the fact that two people, given the same opportunities to make money, can get very different results.

I think that the answer to success (be it at trading or at life) lies within each of us and that we are completely responsible for our own results in trading (or in life). Too often, we blame our trading results on outside events, circumstances, or other traders. The typical excuses would be: the "market" was against me, the big players were out to get me, they knew exactly where I had my stop, etc.

Not to long ago, I read a book that discussed how, to a certain extent, your trading discipline was a matter of integrity. Not exactly the kind of integrity that you would normally associate with that term. More importantly, this integrity has to do with how you adhere to your specific trading rules. This integrity has to do with "Are you being honest with the commitment you have to trading your trading rules?." Do you move your stop if a trade is going against you? Do you justify moving your stops because you think a trade that you are in is going to make money? Have you moved your limit order (to take profits) because you "have a feeling" that the market is going to continue to move in your direction. All of these actions would violate your commitment to your rules and thus violate your integrity.

Once you have a strict set of trading rules, one of the most important things that you can do is follow those rules to the letter. For me, using the "integrity" analogy helps me to look at a trade and say, "Is this a trade that fits all of my trade criteria? Can I follow my trading criteria on this trade?" If all criteria are met for the trade, then I take the trade and set my stop and limit orders. Then the hard part comes into play. If I am up a little, my natural tendency is to start to move my stop up. But that's not a part of my trading strategy. My strategy says, "If my trade is up 1.50 points, I can move my stop to break even." Not a tick before. If I were to move my stop before then, I would be violating not only my integrity, but also my trade rules.

I realize that I spend a great deal of time going over the mundane topic of trading psychology. The reason is it has been my experience that the mindset of a trader can determine to a great degree the profitability of a trader.

Take a look at my beginning comparison of the "Tale Of Two Traders". My question to you is this? Which trader would you rather be? Work hard at following you trading rules. Set objective and realistic goals and... Catch a Whopper.

Fibonacci Levels - A Few Trade Secrets Revealed 

A Short Guide To Trading Fibonacci Levels

First off, I don't claim to be a "guru" on fibonacci levels. In this article, I would like to share some of my insight based on my observations of 20+ years in the financial services business. Like any other trading technique, a new trader needs to do their own homework and see exactly how the market reacts to various fibonacci levels (from this point forward, I am going to abbreviate the fibonacci word by "fib" because to type fibonacci out every time would lengthen this article by half again).

I am not going to look at any other indicators (like moving averages, or other technical indicators). In my full trading plan, those indicators play an important part of deciding if I take a trade or not. (For my full trading plan, log onto my blog: http://www.futuresinvestingmadeeasy.com. The trading plan is FREE and I urge anyone trying to learn how to day trade to study this blueprint carefully). In another words, just because you have reached some of the fib levels I am going to talk about in this article, DO NOT take a trade unless other criteria have been met. Fib levels, while important, are not a be all, end all, stand alone strategy.

The 61.8% Fib Level

When I first started trading, many of the trading books and manuals that I studied recommended using the 38.20% (38%) fib level, and the 50% fib level to analyze support/resistance areas. While I have found those to be somewhat useful, there are other levels that I have found to really give a trader a better edge in making decisions on where support/resistance areas are. The first of these levels is the 61.8% (61%) fib level. Most charting platforms have a fib tool built in. In Tradestation, the fib tool is very easy to use. Let's assume that the market opened (point 1), moved down and bounced off of a certain level (point 2) and then began to rally back up to point 1. The price stops there and begins a pullback. Using your fib tool, click on point 1 and then on point 2 and release. Your fib levels will then be marked. It is important to see how the price reacts to the 40%, 50% and ultimately the 61% fib level. The market can turn and go in the other direction at any of these levels. My research has shown that the larger the pullback (specifically the 61% fib level), the better chance that the market will turn around and go in the other direction. I have seen many times that the market will pause at the 61% fib level, almost as if it is trying to make up it's mind if its going to stop there, or head on in the original direction it was headed.

I urge you to start watching the 61% fib level and see how many times that level holds the price in.

The 127% Fib Level

If the 61% fib level described above is broken, then the next two fib levels come into play. The second fib level that my testing shows is worthy of mention is the 127% external fib level. Usually (but not always), once the 61% fib level is crossed, the market will travel to the 127% external fib area. An interesting point is that many traders don't acknowledge or use the external fibs to determine possible stopping areas. I am amazed at how many times the market turns on a dime at this level.

The 161% Fib Level

Another level that I think needs to be addressed is the 161% external fib level. If the 127% fib level doesn't hold the price in, the next stopping point is the 161% fib level. This level also seems to stop a trend in its tracks.

How To Use Fib Levels

In my opinion, there are two ways to use fib levels. If I am looking to enter a trade and the 61% fib level is right above/below my entry, I will pass on the trade and wait for a set-up without that area to compete with. Secondly, if the 61% fib level has been broken, I know that there is a reasonable chance for the price to go to the 127% or 161% fib extension area.

Conclusion

As you began to work with fibs, understand that these areas are just that, areas. That means that when the price approaches a fib level, it can go past that level by a few ticks or more and still be a valid fib level. I hope that if you are serious about learning how to day trade, you put fibs in your tackle-box as a tool to help evaluate strong support and resistance levels. Charts describing the above set-ups and more free commentary are available on my blog. I hope that Fib levels help you be able to: Catch a whopper!!
