Good poker player = good trader?

The big advantage to trading over poker is that if youre good at it you can, in most cases, make a lot more money. The way in which they most resemble each other, imo, is that you must learn how to lose and move on in order to succeed.

 

I always think so,but i think that the trding is most difficult than poker,and most complicate.

In fact i always think that the intelligent people have more possibility to succes.
But this sentence is not completely true,because in the past very intellectuall´s people was a experience failure trading.

 

I believe that trading can be "not gambling" and you do not need to be intelligent to execute manual-arbitration strategies.

You just can't get lazy. (this would support the "passion for trading" thingy)

This is just my belief...so take it with a grain of salt.

I always wear sunglasses when I trade. Keeps other traders from reading my eyes through the computer screen

 

I beg to differ...Trading is simple, simple, simple....not "easy" because the psychology involved is hard to overcome.

Poker takes a lot more "hands" "time" and thought, in my opinion. Both are very similar.

"Ya gotta love what we do"....what could be better, trade all day, play poker for fun (and make a few bucks while you're at it, LOL).

Some see the glass half empty, we prefer the other opinion.

All the best,

We monitor everyone, we know every trade you make....We ARE the "They" you all FEAR

(Now we come back to the planet Earth, at least I think we still count the Earth as a planet, LOL).
