Since you want to put this into the category of Psych,here is my
recolection:
1.I did not disbeleve what he had done.
2.I found it peculiar that someone[16 or not]needing advice did not
respond to personal or list e-mails until he was confronted.
3.He made a comment that his method was foolproof.In an e-mail to him
I pointed out he was dealing with stocks of questionable merit and
news responsive.He then admitted he was "misunderstood" and yes he
could lose money.
4.No one is out to demasculine anyone on this list 16 or older.The
idea is to maintain a standard.
5.It would sadden me to see him removed from the list over
misunderstandings especially since I can empathize as a former 16 year
old stock trader myself.
By now most are worn out by this subject but I have found it
fascinating,
John

Hi Group,
I've been wondering what everyone's responses indicate about their own
predisposition in trading. Some were immediately encouraging, some
were
immediately critical and untrusting. Some seemed to let the evidence
accumulate and wonder.
I encourage each of us to ask how our response is a possible pattern
in our
personality and how this effects our trading.
For me, my first response was to accept the story without much
question:
Therefore, am I lacking in my critical thinking and analysis? Do I do
this in
my trading? Do I need to then emphasize more critical analysis in my
trading?
If I had been initially critical, would I then perhaps lean in the
direction
of over-critique? Could this perhaps effect the moment when I pull the
trigger? All kinds of questions can come to mind about what we can
learn
about ourselves here.
Let's learn from what WE do rather than from what Jawad or someone
else
does...
Steve
