Why I love the market.

Because when you have an opinion that's wrong, you lose your money. And if your stubborn and refuse to admit you're wrong.....you can lose it all.

I love that last part.

We'd be a much better society if more people had skin in the game every time they opened their mouths.

A perfect test for reality awareness. I fully agree with you.

I love it because I was never under as much pressure to work on myself until deciding to become a trader. Trading is that profession in which character flaws are not only bad for your own personal trading results, but will be exploited by others.

Love the market circa 2008 because a pigeon could make a deposit on a BMW but a stockbroker couldn't

Because it the only place I am aware - that absolute truth is present - 100% of the time

It's been my experience that people who, "love the market" are lacking any edge. Not speaking to anyone on this thread.

Good point

I view those people as being "in love"

Bad for business

I love the market because in reality...everybody is involved in it one way or another and dependent upon it...traders, investors, pension plans, services (via companies & government) we use, schools, stores and everything else because it all has a foot in the market.

I suppose it comes down to how long you been doing this, your views of the market changes, I use to think like you, now the most competition is between my ears. I think cause it is so dehumanized you never know who actually you trading against, don't matter, don't care either. I see it as competition with myself, trading as well as I can. Playing the same game each day, it is something to do, I don't play golf.
