Everyone tells you NOT to have any opinions or convictions when you are trading...but the majority of professional traders have an overall market view - what kind of basic market are we in, what are the major factors for the month, etc.
Discretionary professionals trade in much the same way as you - moving in and out of the E-mini S&P 500 or the US 10-Year T-Note a few times a day or week - but they anchor their view to their perspective of the market's overall personality and dominant theme for the week. This approach provides context and allows them to not get caught up in one trade.
If this approach works for them, shouldn’t it be right for you as well?
