PT Bro,

Everyone feels the same. In the end, I will only tell you to trust your own instincts and your view. You'll always be more comfortable with that. For example, I think markets are robust and hence I am buying. No matter who says what, I will do what my analysis asks me to do. In the end, if I am wrong, I am wrong and I am ready to bear the consequences.

Markets know no one, no matter who that person is. And if someone thinks that markets know this and that particular analyst, they are so wrong. If ever I go broke, I want to do it with my analysis and not from anyone else's opinion. You are an experienced investor and hence trust yourself. There is no one out there who is more brighter than you and hence you are right in your opinion. Stick to it, execute it and live with it. This is the attitude that I adopt while Trading.

Remember, life is a lot like chess, accept that after check mate, it still continues to move forward.

Believe in your trading system,
emotions has no place in pro traders mind,
make a trading plan, know your risk,release the risk, moveon.

Entry and exit matters , intermediate movements are part of trend, dont bother them at all
 
3. Risk reward in trading is dependent again on account size. Usually 1-2% risk on each trade is kind of fine. But again it depends on one's risk profile, account size, ability to tolerate pain and psychological makeup. I cant decide these factors for you and hence you will have to do some trades related soul searching. :)
Okay, suppose that a swing trader may take 1% risk on each trade. What should be the initial target to book profit? 1%, 2-5%, 6-10% or 10-15% or more??
I understand that exit points can be trailed as per the price movement on the chart. However, what should be the mental objective for a swing trader?

Itsmemad,

Profits in between 4-6% with a risk of 1% should be extremely good. Basically your target should be a 5% move.
