Dearest Brother GeeTO69, My brotherly instincts urge me to conclude that you are protrader and traderx... my love for you is intense, so please do not regard this post as a slam... indeed, I commend you for your imaginative new nickname Resolas Inamtih... Love, Candle
Brethren Don and Hitman, It causes a considerable degree of disquiet in me to see you both ringing eachother's necks... admittedly, I have had my spats with you, Don, but, as time progresses, I have seen good value in your postings. It is with sheer brotherly concern that I urge you both to kiss and make up. Love, Candle
So much of your passion comes through, and you do have the "heart" of a warrior it seems. But this is not "war" - and we don't "wage attacks" on others. It is just business, and some ways of doing business do well, and some don't, no matter how hard you try. It is truly unfortunate that you have been turned to the "dark side" of this business. Imagine how much good you could do with all your energy. This is an attempt to make contact with you and stop the wild controversy. Keep up the good work with your team, make them strong and profitable traders, don't make them "warriors" - there is enough of that going on in the world today. I hope you have a great trading day...and tighten up your opening envelope a bit and see what happens.
Don makes a good point, actually. Trading is not like "war" as much as many people like to misuse war analogies. Trading is a game where probability & degree meets psychology & execution. The business of trading (i.e. firms, funds, retail, etc.) is even much less so than "war". The market is not your enemy. Other traders are not your enemy. And other firms are not your enemy. Using Sun-Tzu's principles as applied to trading, or the business of trading, would be disastrous.
Sister Omartrading, In defense of Don, first earn your spurs before hurling insults... once you've got to 50 posts or so, then insults become more credible... Love, Candle
So candle, what you are saying is that since I have less than 50 or 30 or 10 posts, that whatever I say is less credible? Realizing your underlying reason behind it still doesn't make it right. Maybe the this site should be renamed to "ElitestTrader".
