As part of an occasional series of great approaches to trading, written by fellow traders/bloggers, here is a series we’ll call “Truer Words”. These articles discuss the fundamentals of trading which include emotional intelligence, trading journals, size management, P/L performance, and many other dimensions – not just pre-trade analytics and idea generation. These articles, therefore, do not mention Trade-Ideas but are listed here to help readers ‘get a leg up’ on the other steps.
