Quote from jem:
You know what is kind of funny, while I had a working methodolgy and was making money I thought Publias stuff and other zen type stuff, while well written and thought provoking, was really mostly useless for making money. I thought it was a crutch or a drug that allowed poor traders to continue trading a losing methodology because it wasnt that they or their method sucked it was their state of mind. I thought for winning traders it was superfluous. Today upon rereading this stuff I was beginning to say yeah thats good insight. This shook me up.
I mean--- when you know what you are doing the market is not a mirror it is a cash register. When it is a mirror you may be in trouble. You know what lately it has been a mirror. I had best make it a cash register again.
