    Let the Math Do the Work!!

    creating a system that feels good

    Yea, what would be the point? I trade to proof something to myself, if I want other people to make or loose money for me I throw them at an Hedgy. And if I lose at least I know it is my fault and I may learn something from it.

    Tell me how much you enjoy Trading

    Wait a sec. I didn't say anything about leaving the trading profession. I was only pointing at the fact that it is very difficult to make enough money solely by trading in order to have a comfortable life. I was just comparing my P/L and what I get from my current business activities outside...

    The Iraq "Civil War" -

    Option replication and exotics journal

    Risk--do you post your trade as they happen? (it looks like). I don't doubt much your achievment, I traded exotics with IG and know their potential and if that's the case this journal might be of monumental value....

    Tell me how much you enjoy Trading

    Yes, for the moment. What happens if something goes wrong: your beloved system works no more, market changes and gets much tougher,MM can't make $$$ easy, they want to get rid of you, a few leveraged positions go bust…the possibilities are infinite. I mean you need a collateral to guarantee...
