HALL OF FAME of ET Educational Threads

The best thread ever was the one about SwiftTrade in Rotterdam.

Where one trader was bitching about the dishonest branch manager. It took a hilarious turn when the branch manager hacked the ET account of one of his traders to write positive stuff about himself using the trader's ET handle.

The thread was eventually closed by mods. I tried to find it but couldn't. If anyone could find it, that would be awesome.

Welcome. It's always most important to minimize losses. One bad trade can knock out many, many good ones. And then you feel "All that hard work for nothing." And sometimes you don't have any control over that other than to pay attention to the risks involved before entering the trade. Weird things happen in the market we hadn't planned on.

Can't happen unless these are mechanical or automated trading systems. Simply, if it ain't that...we can be looking at the same cloud in the sky from different areas of the city and still see something different. :cool:

I would go further...we can be in the same area of the City and still see something different.

We all know what Tiger's golf swing looks like, doesn't mean we can do the same..
