Do the opposite

Monster Wins are out there. They’re just super hard to get. Not because they’re a secret or that they can only be found with complicated, proprietary analysis. They’re hard to get because of one big obstacle: Us. Everything we know. Everything we’re good at. Everything that’s served us well...ruins it. What do we like to do? Take risk off the table. What’s the absolute safest place to have our money? Out of the market. If we get in a trade and it starts to go profitable, what’s the safest (smartest?) thing we should do? Take it out. It keeps our money from danger and, well, no one goes broke taking a profit, right? Actually, not right. That’s the problem. It’s very easy to go broke taking small profits--when the stoploss wipes us out. Ask any big hedge fund that’s blown up (Long Term Capital Management being a very famous example). Almost always, they took their profits quickly and let their losing trades run. If the profits are small, they can’t pay for the losers. It feels great to take a profitable trade out of the market, no doubt about it. It can also destroy our whole account. The same goes for weekends. Who likes to hold a winning position over a weekend? Nobody. For that matter, who likes to hold a losing position over a weekend? Nobody again. No one likes holding a position over a break. It feels like nothing good will come of it. And sometimes, bad things do happen when the market opens back up. But, by far, the best thing to do to get big winning trades is to hold over a weekend. All the research I’ve ever seen shows exiting on Friday dramatically reduces profit and increases drawdown. We want to get out on Fridays. And it’s one of the worst things we can do for our trading. The Monster Wins are out there. We just have to [do the opposite]( to get them. Happy trading, Scott P.S.
