    Zen, Yoga, Meditation and Trading

    I meditate after most trading days for 30 to 45 minutes. It helps me transition into home/family life after the trading day is over. I highly recommend it. Meditation CD's work best for me. Dr. Jeffrey Thompson's Theta Meditation CD is a good place to start...

    Zero Downside second account

    You don't know what you are talking about. The training is optional, and you pick a mentor to work with. Nobody is stealing anyones secrets here. I have a strategy that is very liquidity sensitive and have never felt that anyone is stealing it to provide other traders at Bright.

    My post: Make investors, pensions, mutual funds, and retirees pay up again? Are you out of your mind? This tax will hit the little guy who is already on the hook for bailing out Wall Street! Either you have no idea what you are talking about (which I doubt) or you want to turn naive...

    Considering this is a thread against the transaction tax, how do you avoid it? It is no secret what party is pushing this tax. Breaking up their filibuster proof super majority in the Senate is a win for those fighting this tax. However, I agree that other political ideology should be left...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Bogle has been for this tax for a long time. He has never liked short term traders and for years compared them to gamblers always with anger and venom in his comments. A picture of Jack Bogle comes to mind everytime someone uses the term limosine liberal.
