Most useful things you learned in school that apply to trading?

I learned in this Forum, that if a man,

was active participant in the topic, where two well know members of this forum ,

traded demo accounts on options, in form of competition,

now,

finds demo trading to be ,,not real" ( ofcourse that's true ),

then the words of such a man,

should not be taken,

to serious.

 

Da fuq you smoking... I don't trade demo accounts...

 

But you shared tons of memes and comments when others did.

 

and..... dude..land your plane.

Don't come here touting your performance on a demo account. It's like fucking a hot girl with your best friend's dick.

 

... You was, as i wrote few posts ago, a participant, commenting and sharing memes, not the one who traded.

That happened not so long ago, and because of my respect to a member who was trading there, i will not link that topic,..

The forum - as in Rome's times, is to share and argue,
so i will , whenever i shall find it fitting to the topic & except for administration, noone will change that.

Most likely you are a great trader,
yet,
i placed you to my ignore list,
to save our mental energy,
because you just proved to me,
for the first and last time,
that your words,
- do not follow your actions,
and that is,
far more important to me,
than,
money.

Good luck to you El.

 

took a 6 months break....
to take something from golf: everyone is a scratch golfer at the range
or, in this context it is easy to be God in a forum

 

Most useful things which I learnt in school and applicable for trading :
simple plus minus times division



Most useless & worthless things I learnt in school and
not applicable for trading :

Euler's Identity
The Gaussian Integral
Navier Stokes Equation
The Explicit formula forthe Prime counting function
General Relativity
Noether's theorem
Callan Symanzik equation
Curvilinear regression
Finite Element Aanalysis formula


even simple linear equation y = mx + c is useless for trading
where m is gradient,
and c is constant.

Very nice post.

 

I don't know. It was actually useful.

Helped me made money when x was months/years instead of ticks/minutes and m >> risk free rate.

 

I learned a bit of German in school as a second language, and it made me appreciate Nena's one-hit wonder song more...



And it helped me to realize that I should listen to more music while trying to daytrade. Frees up the brain muscles.

Other than that, the fact that you are asking this question makes me weep for the future.
