  2. I need to focus a little more on that... That's a good one that I don't think about too often.

    talking to your broker on your trading over your cell phone while driving, you know, sooner or later, get killed in an accident .... this should be the most expensive

    Repeating detrimental behavior


    In this business - "try" - simply won't cut it

  8. Every rookie...will make every rookie mistake, sooner or later --I don't care how long you practiced.
    When real money is in play...you learn very quickly. Or at least, I did -- hopefully you will too.

    Some "dumb ass mistakes" are derived from dumb ass strategies, so keep that in mind too. :confused:
    Other than that, good luck...and may the force be with you :rolleyes:
