Gnome - thanks. Very good post. What do you guess AT? Without giving away your secrets (you may say there are no secrets other than KISS and stops) - do you guess at demand and supply of something, or an indicator, or a direction (and if so how do you 'guess' that?)? Do you see something...

Go gnome! What was your key learning or two?

QQ12 Focusing on wrong goal. If you dont want your account wiped out - easy. Use small positions. IS that really your goal? Dude - work out what you REALLY want. Im serious.

True, they are small personal traders. But then so am I. We dont need to manage $5Bn to have a wealthy life.

Ok, fact 1: These quants make 5-20% returns. Maybe 30% in the case of Renaissance. Fact 2: Nitro and some others say 1 in 100 traders use indicators, rest use math edge. Implication 1: 99 in 100 use fundies (and mutual funds do worse than the index) or quant methods (see returns above) -...

Good post man.

Jack - thanks. Thats a very good article. You teach well. Thanks

(1) Dont you always want to improve? If not, youre dying. (3) That makes no sense. If you are talking about inflation then reduce the 5k also.

Where from and who was that Western girl? Ive never come across one that insane.

wow. Im on Match in the UK and have no luck whatsoever. Used to use it in NY with 1,000x better results. It helps to be in a culture where dating services arent considered weird.

That is a very good post Jack. I understand.

That is such a utilitarian (American?) way of looking at things. I know plenty of people who are together BECAUSE THEY HAVE RAPPORT. They like and respect each other.

Saw a program last night: The Secret lives of women. It was an American show. Was about plastic surgery. One guy had to sell his house as his wife wanted so much plastic surgery. He was really unhappy about it. He said "All Ive worked for is disappearing under a mountain of debt - but you...
