In the contrary, we have Paul Tudor Jones who's a major socialite in NYC. Limos to high end parties, Crystal champagne, 3 model girl friends... And he was happy doing it. Trivial but at least, it's good to hear you're doing what makes YOU happy which is the most important. Rather than...

So a trading performance is a character? Or is performance a result of a character (if there is one... which we are trying to discuss)

Isn't that a good thing? You never want to be comfortable with a trade. "AFRAID" would be a bit extreme but I'm "serious" of taking a trade... Is that psychological? Bad thing? I dunno, you tell me.

Dustin and Brandonf, Thank you for your response. I agree that it's a mixture of both and the degree of which side (if there is a side... but it was an example I provided) depends on the individual. Then... this whole thread becomes very trivial. I know one guy who's really happy with...

This actually came to my attention from a PM. Eric, why not write about Money Management? We all know you trade both discretionary and systematic. Discussing Money Management won't give out your actual models, there's nothing revealing that can take off your edge. Whatever your trading...

OK... No cursing. I'm back to my usual style of posting. If you want a discussion in a normal, rational tone... I'll give it.... ----------------------------------------- Why would one's lifestyle affect someone's "actual" trading? Is having a family a good influence or bad...

Eric, I take back all the msgs I've mentioned in PM. My original instincts were correct. You are a one hit wonder. Seriously, I'll give you another year, and you'll be a lighter-weight Dan Zanger living off his past success. Not to mention, most of the bashing I've done is pretty much...

Sorry, saxon22... he sidelined your original question and I may have helped him do it. Don't bother with this. Just get back to your original doubt.

Sorry, saxon22 and Eric. I have an issue when it comes to teach and dealing with newbies. It was never easy... But what's ironic is ironic.... EricP, why do you post your results on ET? How does that relate to being humble? Even if you have me on ignore.... Other people will read it...

Seriously!!! I'm the dumbest poster in ET.

Eric... you must start a church... If you truly believe so why not just donate all your money to some dumb mooching charity and make all your money back via trading. You MUST have the skills.

nuff said... Eric is a loser. All his followers are losers. No more posts.

In another words, limits themselves for no rational / logical reason.

Yet again... You use my trademark thread title... Still waiting for my check in the mail. I always enjoy your thread. Lot of "basic" stuff which newbies just can't seem to get... I still can't understand why people don't actually "read" and "think" to understand what's really important...

You friendly broker on the other side of the phone. Leachers get what they want.

A bit biased based on your own trading... aren't you? Math? Statistics? Programming? Engineering? There's plenty of courses that can help. Of course, it's up to the person to apply them after you learn them. Just as there are bad doctors and great ones.

Closed position.

I'm a big fan of stupid bets. That's what friendship's all about. On one right now. :)

You're talking about psychology. What can you expect? All this is a popularity contest. People believe something to be true based on how they feel. Not what they think... Why do you think all the chicks buy all those self-help books... They feel psychology, not think of it. Irony is...

When I trade discretion... I use it. I've tested MP a long time ago, it has significant value. I know my tests and research.
