magna - are you saying the QBD statment was copy from an ad for software. Because whoever wrote that seemed to not only have at least some understanding of trading but a pretty cool writing ability. Of course I prefer originality but if you wrote that yourself QBD, that was a pretty cool read.

Are you for real? That sounds like a nice setup that you have going. Definately inspiring to those of us in the newbie section of the bus. Hard for those of us sitting here in the midwest going into winter, little sun, corporate job, fifty pounds of clothing to stay warm..... But you keep it goin', I can see those hills and valleys too.

Thanks for all the kind words. I have some pictures posted here http://www.tonyoz.com/pictures.htm I don't have the place in Redondo anymore, and I have been in my current residence since 1996. It is not a big place, and I don't own it either. We rented it brand new from the developer, (because I don't like to be tied down to property. We sold our house in a soft market after it was listed for almost a year, so it was a bitter lesson). Anyhow, I just wanted to share some of the views I was talking about in an earlier post.
BTW, 4th of July is really cool, we can see fireworks in 11 different places form our balcony.

Writing is my third love next to trading-golf, then writing. In fact, every morning, I freetype one page without stopping in order to clear my mind. It helps to alleviate any conflicts, thoughts, or emotions before I trade. Something like this:
pretty tired this morning, its 345 am and i didnt sleep for more than 5 hours, something has been bothering me the last two days and i cant pick up on it, im not sure is it not being absolutely fully loaded on this market when i have been rampantly bullish for 2 weeks? a speculator never feels he makes enough when he is right or is it my girl who is complaining i am not spending enough time with her? or is umm... not really thinking of anything right now just typing so jem can see what i do for about fifteen minutes every morning typing putting all my thoughts down on the screen so i can start this day fresh , new, clear and ready to drawing a blank for the word i want to use so i continue to type and think of nothing and clear my mind and just let anything i think of come onto the screen where did i leave off? oh yea the word i was looking for let me see how do i want today to be i want to today to be full on conviction confidence integrity honesty truthfulness clarity and wisdom and ill let jem know i end every freetyping sort of like this, i do not know, i do not need to know where the market is going to make money, i play my edges, accept the risk, define the risk, and let the market trade, i will scan the general market conditions looking for clues as to the path of least resistance not caring about being a bull or a bear but on being right is all i care about....
Peace.
Tony,
That apartment view was totally Baywatch. Almost makes having to get up so early worth it.
