Even with a weak trading plan if you imply strict money management and psychology trading decisions you can make consistent money in the markets.It took my about 3 months to understand how the market really works and it truly open my eyes, as I see professionals simply make money by doing the opposite of the herd. Distributing on the up move to weak holders and Accumulating on down moves from the weak holders.
