yeah...i would agree with you, but i have been wrong for the last 6 months...so dont listen to me.

i did say it was "all that was needed"..i said that is a key ingedient in all prifitable strategies. And roulette, the odds are always against you...always. there is red, black, and green...the green assures you that the odds are always less than 50/50. the market is not the same in thsi...

i thik most profitable strategies are very similar overall.. there are different types...but within each type there are very similar ingredients. there are no big secrets to this game. "strategy" is just asking people who have done ther homework how they appreoach the market. read the...
