there were several threads here on et recently concerning the time/money spent until a trader became profitable. what i would find very interesting is how many trades did it take the now profitable traders to turn around. i guess this number would be more indicative than anything else - since everybody trades different sizes and makes a different number of trades per day/month ... and since we all know that one learns a little bit with every single trade (or at least with every losing trade - hopefully) - this is something i'd love to know. please tell!
