Don’t sit and watch the charts, trust your choices. If you sit and watch the charts you are going to go nuts, panic and make irrational decisions. Rather watch trends, be aware of ranges, and if you want to react do so only when there is a confirmed “break-out”. These are the first things I was ever taught, and they really helped me. They are your foundation, and things you must do, otherwise you will be trading from the edge of your seat, no sleep, no social life, and you will loose more than you make.
In no time your confidence will build, you will be doing these small things without thinking about it, and you will then be able to concentrate on other important contributing issues like the economic calendar, and indicators. When you have a handle on those and making consistent gains, you will have developed your own style and, that is when you will be ready to look at going live.
