larry, re: I know if I make the right trades I am going to get a big sweaty wad of cash, and if I make the wrong ones I am going to get a kick in the a$$.
Actually, I like to get the cash when I make the right trade, however, I prefer blaming others for wrong ones. And it doesnt have to be a person...at times I've blamed my cat for distracting me and 'causing' a wrong trade. Since establishing this mindset, its been three and a half years since I was actually responsible for a bad trade. For instance, if I go back to my screen and see something that I should have bought or sold while entering this post, I will have you to blame. Its a pretty watertight system.
best.
