Only if you ask them nicely. :)

Choosing to be offended by some one on the internet is like choosing to step in dog shit instead of walking around it. No offence taken. I don't know, If you are struggling with discipline then being responsible to someone else, even anonymous posters on an internet forum, might help. You are...

I agree. If you can't define your edge then you probably don't have one. However if you don't have the disciple to follow your plan you'll never know if you have an edge and if you can't make money sym trading you probably won't with real money. If nothing else you save a lot just follow...

Not a problem. I thought I might have to change when a position was entered.
