I think the most important aspect is NOT a mentor, but an IDEA that makes money. Implementing that idea is important. For instance, a trader friend gave me the idea of trading risk arbitrage situations---that's where I made most of my money---but he didn't mentor me. You have to expand on that...

I'm not managing a trading office, but I do have an interest. Wed/Thur P&L +2100

My Lexus is for sale on e-bay. I need to ditch it before leaving for Central America or ....a cabin in the woods in Montana ala the Unabomber. I mean, it would be kind of strange to drive my sc 430 into a small town for groceries if I'm living in the woods without power.....wait....maybe I...

lost $3,600. I haven't been trading much this week. Just visiting with friends.

I have concluded my trip, and have calculated I am up $9391 since inception of this journal. My major positions in CIC and HRP have done well. Costa Rica is an interesting place. Homes are not cheap in the best areas. I'm considering a mountainside home . Labor is very cheap. A maid is...

Quite a difference in height and age, but Yoda is still better with a light saber. Maybe compare Gertsman to Annakin. Kinda looks like him too, except only uglier and with zits. Hope his trading hand doesn't get cut off, though. I used to think he was going to blow out, but now I'm convinced...

At least I know ¨Del Rey¨means ´¨of (from) the king.¨ Most guys there think Rey is the name of the owner. Given the negotiability of pricing in Costa Rica, I would say having aggresive girls there is sort of like the cab driver who overcharged me by insisting on $8 instead of $6 for a 30...

looks like I will be down about $1,500. I am discontinuing this journal unitl I return July 4 at which time it will be updated to reflect the further losses I plan while on vacation. Note to Don Bright: Where is your brother when I need someone to buy 10 million shares of something I am...

I'll be interested in seeing how it plays out for you over a much longer period, say five years. I guess we will find out.

At the risk of not being able to claim I made money, and since I am going on vacation (the alarm in the house is ON), my major positions are: Long: 28,300 CIC Long:16,400 HRP

Yeah, Bob said that even though I wasn't trading there, he would give me a payday loan in return for 1% daily interest!

Lost approx $400. Net since inception : $4,600 To Don: Thanks. But, you used to say I was THE smartest person you know. Now, I'm only, "one of the smartest." Did something change? To Bob: Thanks for the casino recommendations. I'll try to stay away from the guys in turtlenecks.

I assume you don't have $ at Assent. Otherwise, you can call your GSP and ask him if this is enforced.

See, I did get a response! Obviously some of Gertsman's 75 minions read this board.

Auto, If you are being charged too much, why don't you call your GSP and get it corrected?

Since trading my strategies fairly well suck now, I could be persuaded to write a book, but it would have to include more than just one trader. I'm sure there are others out there with higher incomes and better exploits. The problem is verifying the stories I hear from others.

Maybe we can somehow mix porn and trading......demonstrating, for instance, the true purpose of the kneewell of a trading desk.
