Have you ever heard a day trader refer to “chop”? Maybe they claimed it was a “choppy” day or said they got “chopped up” in a trade? As a beginner day trader who is just getting started, I fully see how you could have very understanding of what is meant. Instead of trying to describe this sort of price action with words, let me show you! Annoying for me? Yes. But helpful for you so you can witness what “choppy” price action looks like? Also, yes! One of the most important decisions you can make for yourself as a beginner is to keep expectations in line with reality. One of those expectations you need to have in mind is no matter what you do, some days will be “choppy” and you’ll need to deal with it. The market is a beast all to itself, so on those days where it decides to have a choppy attitude, so be it! Let me show you pure chop!
