Trading against RAMS. Every trade has a winner and a loser.

[Rams]

Like the 40 000 ACL shares I sold to you when my stop was hit.....that was about a year ago.....well, not much worth now for your 2 year old...

[sponono]

THIS IS AN IMPORTANT TOPI AND YOU RAMS AND PRESTON THINK THAT YOU MUST JUST GO AND SPOIL EVERY DISCUSSION ON THIS FORUM. GROW UP AND GET A LIFE PLEASE

[Rams]

I agree..... I made an important point, and there, goes Preston ....always some remark....he trades nothing, he contributes nothing, hell....he goes after Simon also....but I promise , I ignore him from now on

[Preston]

Wow sponono, sounds to me that you were typing your reply whilst suffering with a serious bout of constipation. Please read the logic behind the statemeent of "Every trade has a winner and a loser" 1. You need to be educated/and continually seek to be educated so that you are smarter than the other traders 2. Always seek new strategies in making money and never chase a price. Sponono, seems to me that you are losing money?

[Preston]

I have an incredible amount of respect for Mr Simon Brown. Not sure where your "ass"umptions comes about?

[Rams]

Just ignore him

[klapka]

The one that has made me more successful in the past few years is 'TRADING LESS OFTEN.'

[SimonPB]

klapka, great point .. over trading a huge problem that makes your broker rich but seldom the trader ..

[Rams]

And I see your point in the weekly and monthly systems...I busy toying with that.....

[Preston]

If you ignoring me, so why post that statement?

[SimonPB]

ya I get sucked into day trading and it makes for great money, but low quality of life .. so I need to remind myself to leave the day trading and do the longer stuff, weekly is best, means my trading take a few minutes every week, leaves lots fo time for wine and other important things

[Blik]

What can possibly be more important than a good bottle of wine...

[SimonPB]

two bottles ??
