Richarf2 has been trading Stocks since he was 16, and he has been in Healthcare IT for 34 years. To keep active into his mature years, he wants something to keep his mind active and to fund a semi-retirement. He started training about 8 years ago and it took him some time to find a trading style that fit his personality. He has finally found a style that works for him and has continued to be profitable.
He is a very short term trader with trades lasting from a few seconds to a few minutes. He trades triple bottoms/tops, Fibs, opens, and news. He is an engineer by trade, so he loves to focus on the technical charts. He finds that the technical charts allow for placement adjustments of just 1 tick that has increased his profitability from 63% to 81%. The chart formations have allowed him to adjust the exits to meet the resistance points in the market. He has worked extensively to control his perfection emotions and not force trades. This has become another component of his increased profitability. He has also found that having a trading partner to talk through trades before execution helps to keep both of them on track to making the right trade with the highest odds of success.
