    The day to day psychology of a trader

    I am also hearing that those who learn/read about the "10 commandments" are integrists :D :D :D One question : what is so hard about these mere 10 commandments, and specifically about not lieing%???

    The day to day psychology of a trader

    The nice thing about trading is one gets clearly what needs to be improved/worked on. If one is lucky, one also gets the ways to sort it out. So, I am still working on "making peace with money" - a psychological aspect that is crucial for a trader! It is obviously better than feeling disgusted...

    What is clear is the "elite" have really mis-managed this migration phenomena. On purpose or not? Results : * all the peasants are suffering * all the human traffickers are making a fortune. In Libya human trafficking is the new hot job. And the one thing the media are making sure...

    The day to day psychology of a trader

    Continuing my understanding of the ten commandments. This "don't lie, don't bear false witness" is actually not an easy one to fully grasp. The different aspects of lieing, and false witnessing ( calomny,slander, sin of detraction, sin of rash judgement) are things I did not know at all...

    ES day trading journal - my final attempt

    I wonder if Hurricane is just thinking in a certain way and dismissing any comment that does not fit it. Going demo, taking a break from trading, taking a stepback from trading, etc. Most posts are suggesting to take a step back, or go demo. But I am not sure he is ready to change his mind. Just...

    Damn!!!! I'd never thought these elections would come down to the issue of "I feel good"!!!! Let's listen to this "I feel good" and check if it makes one feel good! If what was at stake was not such an important job ( President of the most powerful country on earth), I'd be saying Hillary is...

    Paris is turning into a third world shithole

    I really do not understand why recognising that (rape, violence , etc) are not suitable behaviour in Western countries makes one a racist or Islamophobic. May be one question would be to find out why they do these acts ( rape, violence, etc)
