Re: Top Ten International Economic Indicators

I remember I used to daytrade stocks. Looking back, drove me nuts having to open so many charts, juggling them all at once with all the indices on top of that, I had 3-4 monitors, all the flashing signals all over the place with your heartbeat pumping 140/min. What was I thinking? Stocks are better for swing, not really for daytrade, at least for my simple-minded, untalented, un-multi-tasked brain of mine.

When I finally moved to eminis, especially ER2, things got a little calmer, relaxed, sometimes fun and sometimes boring. Don't have to deal with news spikes, which stock is correlated with which, now it's just plain vanilla (only 3 charts max of same symbol). I'm not as emotional anymore. Now, I just wait and snipe. No more charting flipping. Signs of aging I think.
