Quote from small:
This thread has made me laugh out loud so many times the guys around me think I'm watching the "star wars dork" again.
Mr. Market is HUGE. Guys like him are why I so enjoyed the year I lived in Lindenhurst.
But Mr. Market is not a trader in the strictest since, as rolegario succinctly described a pure trader's approach.
Mr. Market, please never go away, and put more of your Florida vacation pics on the site. But you would probably get much less grief on this board if you would do 2 things:
1. Understand that to a trader, a position that is against you is a loser, regardless of whether or not you have closed it out. Saying you are on a 17 win streak with a half dozen (open) losers will not make you friends with this sour crowd.
2. More pics, fewer Wharton references.
