    In his orginal interview he says:

    "The elements of good trading are: (1) cutting losses, (2) cutting losses, and (3) cutting losses"

    It is easy to conflate this with:

    "keep losses small, keep losses small, keep losses small"

    But they are not the same thing.

    As Covel says in his 2004 book, "Trend Following":

    "I’ve had the chance to review his monthly performance data for the decade of the 1990s. The month-by month numbers are eye popping. Seykota takes big risks, and he gets big rewards"

    i pay my maid 25 usd per month

    if i can make 25 usd per day i will get equal to my monthly pension.

    suggest bring your capital and shift to Hyderabad
    that is why the British shifted here and stayed for one or two centuries
