To tell the truth, mentor is very important, but sometimes, I don't know whether this is really true. Mentor can give you his method to trade, but sometimes, people still need time to find something fit for his/her personality. .../B]

Scho,

One thing that troubles me about the fact that you work at Shony _AND_ you say things like this is that, according to everyone I know that works there or has worked there, part of the allure of working there is that they MENTOR you?

Can't say that there's any better way than to "just do it". There is no better way to learn than to experience it for yourself.

The only problem with experiencing for yourself is your learning curve tend to be 2 to 3 times longer. In this market this translates to almost 1 1/2 to 2 years. That's too long for most traders. Trust me when I say a mentor is the best way to go. But the mentor needs to know and be able to teach you several different styles, otherwises Schon is right, a mentor is useless.
