Hi Walter & all,
<br>
you are right, now (after checking out on my Webster) I would put the word
"stuff" between brackets, no irony or worst was intended from me,
basic knowledge of the English language that is. This happen when you think
that "you know", as my white head <u>should have known</u> by now.
<br>Best regards as always.

I will try to be as fair here as Guy is in regard to Wade Cook. I
too have never attended a Wade Cook stock or options seminar. I did
listen to him years ago when he was peddling real estate strategies.
I have also been innundated in our radio market with his infomercials and
I have listened to the promo's he mails out. The material can indeed
excite one for the riches the market can produce. In my opinion Wade
Cook may be as irresponsible as he is enthusiastic. It is too easy for
a listener, especially an investment "greenie" to think that because Wade
has a "system" that he teaches, that the "system" will work for anyone
who trys to follow it. So many of these "systems" really amount to "buy-low"
- "sell high". And as one who trades almost exclusively in options,
I know how easy it is to show <u>some</u> spectacular short term profits.
But most of us realize the dangers and routinely experience the losses
that make us wonder how the "genius" within us can be so fickle.
I feel the innocent converts of his "systems" may not be sufficiently grounded
in the risks involved. I suspect your's freind's success is shared
by some others who have been awakened by Wade Cook and learned from him.
But I also suspect that most attendees of his relatively expensive seminars
will never recoup their tuition.

Guy: "With the type of trading we do, since it is very risky with a large
exposure to loss, we look for a high return on investment."
Guy, what does this roughly mean in your case in percentage terms?, and over
what period of time?
I wonder if 'Trading Goals' could be arrived at through system testing ---
one we find/establish a system we like to trade, if the MetaStock system
tests indicate the trading system ought to be generating a return of xxx per
year, perhaps we should be shooting for something along those lines?
That is, just a benchmark to shoot for, from a technical, non-emotional
vantage point.
Nicholas
