That's fine if you want to settle for just 50%.

Gentlemen and Lady (ies),

Is there a case of who is kidding who here, about 32 vs 64?  When people I
meet on the bus, little old ladies, who do simple MA crossovers freely tell
me that they just make their 5 % to 10% every week on whatever they trade --
that the benefits of faster computers and mega memory really is going to
take the place of discipline, organisation, consistency and a well thought
out plan???

Others I know do a three step, Stochastic, RSI and MACD , buy an option and
make +50% on a trade.  I mean really...I think there is a "Gizmo Gearlose"
mentality focussed on hardware techie aspect out of balance with the whole
spectrum of skills needed to trade in financial markets.

Of course I could be wrong.. (I'm not and don't make any apology for the
false modesty posing as sarcasm)
