Quote from GermanTrader:
So let them bitch about it. They cannot bitch to their wives, who would throttle them worse than their ISP; they cannot bitch to their dogs, who would walk out on them; they cannot bitch to their friends who think he is this big & rich trader, who might think less of him for his indiscretion. What does it cost?
Invalid reasons for bitching:
1) You don't believe in your own systems to win in the end;
2) You don't trust your ability to follow your own trading rules;
3) You have not yet conquered your emotions in trading;
or
4) Your system is flawed but you trade it anyway because it is yours.
Valid reasons for bitching:
1) Your fucking broker screwed you over;
2) Your cat walked across the keyboard, costing you money;
3) Your girlfriend 'distracted' you and you pushed buy instead of sell;
or
4) Your ISP sucks.
