I think most of us who have been trading even a year can agree that managing risk is more than half the battle when it comes to making consistent returns in the markets.  That was va clip from my conversation with veteran trader Ian Coleman. Ian mostly trades forex, occasionally the indices. In this episode we talk about the kinds of patterns and correlations he looks for. Why he prefers swing trading to intraday and his own quiet obsession with the markets. Check out the full episode on A Trader’s Life. I think you may find Ian’s wit and modesty quite charming.
