How to Develop a Profitable Trading Strategy Why You Should Do the Opposite ofWhat the Majority of Traders are Trying to DoTraders become active in the stock market for no other reason than to collect points, ticks and pips. As much as possible and as fast as possible. Everything else is pastime and useless analysis. Traders therefore need a method, a system that does exactly that: accumulating small profits permanently, which eventually adds up to a considerable plus in the account.For this to happen, the author takes the classic recommendation "cut your losses and let your profits run" under the magnifying glass. In this book, he does the opposite of this well-meaning advice: keep profits as small as possible and choose losses as great as possible.In the second part of the book, he is investigating a strategy that works with this premise.
