Quotes from 'Tools and Tactics for the Master Day Trader' - Oliver Velez
Proper trading is a by-product of proper thinking.
A trader has to identify chart patterns that :
1. Are reliable and represent a short term shift in market psychology.
2. Show when there is a change in balance of power between buyer and seller.
Mastering two or three trading techniques is all that is required to become a highly successful trader.
A trader has to spend little time analyzing what has happened, as it is only of academic value. The majority effort has to be directed as to what is about to happen in the near future.
Stocks experiencing a great degree of momentum tend to correct (or rest) for 3-4 days before they resume their move. This 3-5 days of decline typically sets up a unique opportunity for the educated swing trader.
Trading tactics and techniques will have little or no value if the mind behind those techniques is not been prepared.
The greatest riches of a successful trader lies within his thinking, not with the method used.
Requirement of a successful trader : Deep understanding of the market, clarity and mental awareness and emotional mastery.
It takes many months and years of relentless effort to obtain market proficiency. However excellence seems to emerge only after one has learnt and experienced every conceivable way to loose.
The ultimate reward that goes to those willing to pay the price is immeasurable. Successful traders enjoy an independence that cant even be enjoyed by most.

It is important for a trader to separate losses due to a faulty strategy from those that arise due to faulty implementation of a strategy.
What a stock is doing is far more important than why it is doing it.
