The tremendous advantage that active traders like you and others on this board have over slow-movers like me is the time & the guts to quickly move in and out of the same position.
I tend to just buy as low as I can and wait for it to hit my target, but I miss many, many of the waves in between.
I'm in the middle of two large real estate deals and I probably had about one hour total this week to look at stocks!
All that is needed to make a happy life is within yourself, in your way of thinking. -Marcus Aurelius
