Time Between Trades

Written by Rashmi Ramesh

Sometimes the length of time that you have between closing out one position, and opening the next one can have an impact on your performance.

Fast re-entry is when you are entering the market with only a small break from when you last exited a trade.

If you see that these “fast” trades underperform, then you need to focus on taking a break between trades, and also ensuring you are not carrying the emotions from one trade into the next one. 

On the flip side, it may be you can get into a “zone” where fast trading really works for you when you catch a trend.

In either case, know your specific strengths and weaknesses, and put some structure around your trade execution to ensure you can manage your own emotions.
