"Attachment the great fabricator of illusions" ~Simone Wiel~

Not for anything Nitro BUT Zen Koan's are the anti-thesis of everything "psychological" or "intellectual". Their purpose is to tease one out of thought... Sort of like a sculpter uses a chisel ----> the Zen masters used the Koans...

Karma I know who he is -- tell me who you are and I will let the cat outa the bag:)

Since we are being blunt and all Tampa -- I just got done reading some of that ridiculous "short skirt" thread and YOU ARE A MESS! How somebody like you can get it in their head that you are somehow qualified to be giving this kid advice is beyond me...

Allen when you say you risk 2% per play -- how many NQ pts is that? I also noticed that you used the word "based"; do you personaly risk more or less than 2%? TIA Commisso

oh boy why did I just have to click this link :eek:

I think you are reffering to Sabena's quest to outperform Larry Williams...

Thanks for explaining Doc!

Ahhh so you see now the message that was trying to be conveyed to you with the bull proverb? While there are no doubt external changes that you can make inorder to lessen stress and anxiety -- the real transformation is an internal process... Good luck Aphie and take it slow! PEACE...

Rogue the verbal gymnast :) Strange thing this game, letting go wanting what you want inorder to get it -- one of my short lifes most valuable lessons thus far. The flower does not blossom for the bee to come, the flower blossoms and the bee comes. PEACE and good-trading my friend, Commisso

Hey guys if one wanted to measure the performance of a NQ strategy with an ES strat -- what would be a reasonable ratio? Like I know 1ES point is worth 2.5 times that of the NQ, but is it neccasarily wise to measure relative performance with that same ratio? Curious to know others...

Fine line between "restraint" and "patience". You really think the the benefits are in equanimity(right word?)?? "Restraint" lacks the understanding that perpetuates the "patience", hollow almost... Restraint ----> Rigid, forced and artificial Patience-----> Fluid, natural and genuine...

Is there really such a thing as "witholding" action? For arguments sake though, even if one could somehow break the pendulum of our condition and "with-hold" action -- wouldn't this sort of patience be artificial? I wonder if this would even be real-true-genuine patience at all??? Professor...

One thing I know from my own experience, is that all attempts at "forced" patience or conscious attempts to apply what I conceptualized as patience -- were in vain. Being overly self-conscious about the process of trading, especially while in the midst of action, never served to do me any...

I agree that patience is key, but there are such a myriad of beliefs and lack there-ofs that perpetuate it. Very hard to do it any justice with mere words... Why don't you get the ball rolling professor :D
