Al Brooks, I apologize..

  1. What happens IF in one year time, MarketAddict discovers another writer or trader, and posts the same kind of post?

    So what? Isn't that MarketAddict's choice? and business? What if he never makes another discovery for the rest of his trading life? Is that the preferred course?

    *sigh*

  3. How is he going to see if he is just turning wheels around, or making real progress ?

    Then he will have made two potentially valuable suggestions, or not. Or is it your belief that in learning a skill one needs to choose one source and then sink or swim with that one reference?
    I could rattle off a small library of titles I have found useful, helpful, or otherwise interesting. Why would I have to choose the content of just one to inform my view and reject the rest?

    You have, at some point in your life, read more than one book about the same subject, haven't you?

    Wheels have come off this one. Big surprise.

  6. I'd say I have read them all with notes - learning writing skills on the way.
    Just in passing: I will not read any more, may be economics just to keep "conversations".

    What I am saying is, if he wants to save time, he'd do well to track the P&L very closely
    ( the whole lot with equity curve, risks, etc...), so that he can assess IF progress there is
    and WHERE progress is taking place.

    Unless he has no idea how to maintain a spreadsheet, I don't see that as a problem. And even if it were, discussing it with a bunch of people who have no idea what he's doing would not likely be of much help.

    If he's out of high school, we can assume he will be tracking his P&L. Which is his business and no one else's, except perhaps the IRS.
