I'm glad to see someone here talking about trading on a longer time frame than day-trading or even swing trading. One type of position trading I have had a bit of success with is carry trade. Interestingly, both times I have gotten into one, price has gone crazy (in my favor). Now I'm wondering if I should really be looking to carry the trade or if I should just look for a good entry and then capital appreciation.

Incidentally, I seem to be finding myself trading strategies on opposite poles from each other. On the one pole, I have been gravitating more and more towards very small scalp-type trades that take advantage of market volatility. On the other pole, I also like longer term trades that pay me interest or are generally (supposed to be) slow moving.

Am I schizophrenic? Who knows?
