I've tried the Full Moon indicator and the only problem I've seen with
it is the number of Werewolfs (Werwulfs) it seemed to attract to the
neighborhood.
I had to lay in a good supply of silver bullets in a large caliber. As
most of you are aware the price of silver is up, which of course added
to the expenses of my trading. Then there's the cost of having the
bodies removed. Then there's the cost of removing the remains, and
other miscellaneous expenses. I'm trying to find an equation that will
translate these costs into slippage so I can put them in the tester,
but so far I'm not having any luck.
For those who think this is a load of trader superstition, here are
the signs of a WereWolf (Werwulf). While this list is comprehensive
I've found it difficult to separate WereWolf traits from those of
want-to-be traders after their first six months.
Having a left thumbnail that is left uncut as to resemble a claw.
(Actually all of the nails are uncut, there's a strange order coming
out of the bath robe and the hair looks somewhat unwashed.)
Wearing tattoos, particularly that of a crescent moon. {Most of these
tats are hand drawn with a Bic pen. They look a little like someone
trying to carve into their arms.)
In human form, a werewolf usually has slanted eyebrows that meet at
the bridge of the nose. (They're suspicious of everything and
everyone. They think everybody is out to steal their system.)
A werewolf has an unusually long third finger on each hand. (This
proably due to too much time at the keyboard which causes a lot of
finger issues, including mouse palm.)
Werewolves always have to sleep with their jaws open . Once their jaws
are closed, it difficult to unclench them. (Just ask a trader's spouse
about this one.)
You may also for symptoms in your human suspects that include
increasing violence, increasing aggression, unprovoked rages,
insomnia, restlessness, and other bizarre behavior. Unfortunately,
over time these symptoms can be brought under control, so do not rely
on them exclusively.
In addition, you need to watch for paleness, feeble vision, dry and
misted eyes,an unnatural dread of all water, very dry tongue and
always thirsty legs have incurable ulcerations from frequent falls or
from rubbing the leg of a chair, and the devil's mark.
All of these signs can be found on anyone who has been trading for
more than a few months, spends too much time with the systems tester,
argues with every post on this board or has lost money using buy and
hold, listening to CNBC for their stocks tips, and can't understand
why the systems tester says they should be rich but they keep losing.
I for one keep my Glock nine mil next to my desk with a full load of
silver tips, and I'm not letting one person that fits this description
get ouf of my trading room alive. I suggest you do the same.
