Dear AA,
Agree with most of your points but, I don't agree more with the point that
mentioned above. This is not absolute. Bill Williams and many other are
considered trading wizards. However, they are frequently release books that
cost them months of work beside their careers as traders. Furthermore, they
travel to give lectures at aprofessional exhibit (sometimes for free or for
pennies that they can gain in a trading day ). So I conclude, not all
supporting businesses are for less successful ones.
Best regards,
Hani :)
