man, it's good to be flat

I'm almost never flat

That is for rich people like the Rothchilds

Who can party all the time

Until they get some inside information and make a move

I'm a journeyman trader and work at it all the time 24/7

Until harvest time

and then I get flat

and then we celebrate a little bit

it doesn't hurt that it was on almost the last day of the month

because I can tell you man, 2013 started out really horrible

they should re evaluate the way people like to celebrate when they have had a successful month

i think the idea of a reasonable positive feedback loop is required to make it in trading.. you can't think your way into good trading.. i never understood the expression.. "dig your way out of a hole" is that even it?

it really has nothing to do with profits

or even math

it's just an attitude about yourself

I have such a low opinion of myself after all the bad decisions I have made

that I don't feel like I deserve to just sit around and wait for a good set up

so I have to be in there working everyday

adding to losers

adding to winners

taking losses

working at it

how do you know that Rothchild's are flat ? :p i kind of doubt it
but i feel you. that's why i stick with day trading. at least i can sleep well and without worry about those f** markets.
 
self help books.. are under the impression that you can actually help yourself.. haha which in my case i know to be untrue.. when thinking about myself my brain is very bad.. problem solving it is very good... separating that in trading is very hard..

I got it from reading the family biography

for the most part they were flat

just a simple business of loaning money

much like you or I would do if we bought bonds

but occasionally, they got cornered

much like you and I would be if we had too much in bonds and rates were rising

so they had to take risks

much like you and I would have to do if we were trying to protect what we had worked for

So like the man said, "Everything is fine. I eat well, I live well, I love well, I sleep well, until I have to risk it all to protect it."

Truthfully... I'm not sure even what the heck you are saying. I've read it over and over and I have to be honest... I have no idea what you are saying or what even your point is?
