Bond Fiasco

Maybe to "understand" fixed income markets, but not to trade them.  I traded
Bond Futures after studying them for only one month-- Maybe I was lucky and
I'm not suggesting that anyone else should try it, but if it had taken 6
years, I would have given up almost 6 years earlier.  
      
I don't know anything about the alleged Bond trading "method" that has been
touted and bashed here, but in the past I've trained people in fundamental
techniques of trading Bond Futures in a couple of weeks.  Yes, I had prior
experience with S&P and currencies and that obviously helped.  
        
BTW, I gave it all up a while back, so please don't even think of asking--
I'm just trying to make a point that it may not be as difficult to teach
--or for some people to learn-- as some here apparently think.  Maybe "kiss"
is the key.  Of course, if you're a "System Trader" it may be a whole
different ball-game and that aspect may introduce the major difficulty.
