Peteuk and everyone,

I've bounced back and forward between day & longer term trading and every time the thing that gets me reluctantly back to being glued to a screen is the money management: The size of the stops required to stay in long term trades requires a trading account around 100K/ 50k contract (approx). Add to this the o/n volatility risk and the final nail in the coffin is the weekend risk - huge! There are many posts here about the pain inflicted over a weekend.

Thus until I have a rather large trading account, I'll just have to stay screen mesmerised.

Bill...
