The most memorable impression

[jamesg46]

Hi all!

Ok, so I got to wondering if I could ask one meaningful question to a pro trader, what would it be.

I realised in that thought that here in this forum, there isn't just one pro trader, there are tonnes of you.

So to my question.

What is the most impressionable piece of advice or information someone told or gave to you, it lives with you to this current day.. what would that be.

Kind Regards to you all,

"If (insert variable) is truly useful, it shouldn't be too hard to prove in data" or "If sex is a pain in the a$$, you aint doing it right" - pretty much the same quotes

Underpins everything I do out of market hrs!!

Tonnes? I think you would be surprised how little there are.

[ruthlessimon]

Very true, yah.

Interesting how that line gets drawn though

& a "pro-trader" can still give shite meaningless advice. Weird paradox!

Ok, maybe tonnes was slightly exaggerated...maybe & it's a good point too about a "pro trader" can still give shite advice. Wisdom really does come from all corners.

Was that a line from Only fools & horses? Ironic.

Probably best not to to go too deep with that although, I'm glad you're doing it right.

My favourite quotes for participating in any market are:-

Be greedy when people are fearful and fearful when people are greedy.

Let the market be your slave and not your master.

Both encapsulate your objective and the psychology behind it very neatly.

The most useful quote anyone could give to me but it still would fall on deaf ears, is, a stitch in time saves nine.
