just for example sake...study the big fund managers....most their money was made from a handful of trades but with conviction and over time example those that got in doge and the others early...sat through for ages even btc...conviction on holding long term. probably the hardest personally my biggest in fx have been big swing trades over months and compounding sizing up when everything lines up means being selective and patient even btc...i accept im not the best at scalping and short term...so i dont force it....but swing trades and catching trend moves...i understand it better...coupled with money management and compounding i dont get many...but the 4-5 big swings a year more than makes up for it most trades i know made big money from a handful of swing trades very rarely do short term traders have longevity unless exceptional(TraderSZ)
