You have to work very hard to restore that confidence, and cutting back trading helps achieve that goal."

  9. My favorite trading quote is as follows:

    "Don't touch F1, I have it programmed to...I said
    don't touch that.....no, NO, Noooo!!! Dammit.... What is wrong with you!!!!

    This quote from my mentor more than 13 years ago, as I "inadvertently" bought 30 million in what used to called "D Marks". The trade actually resulted in a small profit....:(

    Thank you

    and thank you George wherever you are, for not firing my ass.

    Steve.
