I turn bullish at the instant my buy stop is hit, and stay bullish until my sell stop is hit.

In order of importance to me are: 1) the long term trend, 2) the current chart pattern, and 3)picking a good spot to buy or sell.

The biggest secret about success is that there isn't any big secret about it, or if there is, then it's a secret from me, too. The idea of searching for some secret for trading success misses the point.

Risk no more that you can afford to lose, and also risk enough so that a win is meaningful.

My style is basically trend following, with some special pattern recognition and money management algorithms.
