Well I didn't say not to paper trade in that post. What I said was that just because you paper trade doesn't mean you can do it successfully in real life. It is a good learning tool but not real life.
Trust me, it's not all about fundamentals. Fundamentals are for investors not traders. That is a prime example of why they are so different. But understanding fundamentals that have gone wrong can be helpful for a trade - such as bounce trading.
