Hi Allen Re:Frequency,
Yes a lot of that makes sense... I'd just ad in that if you run out of cash, then you're program is dead in the water. Trading too frequently and you can run out cash way too soon, or have very little to sell on big run ups... Trading too fast misses the big swings, the big home runs so to speak... What's the other side? Not trading enough, or little at all is also leaving a boatload on the table too... As you sit and wait for one 10, 15, or 20 percent swing, you may have been able to have multiple smaller swings in that trading range that far overwhelms one larger trade... So what's the right answer? I don't think there is one... Every trader on here has their own trading personality... One must do what's right for himself... Best regards...
