Ah, but I don't "trade" as you folks understand the game. My trading
consists of a house payment and quarterly rebalancing of a 401(K) at
work. After five years of study of the mathematics and psychology of the
other forms of trading, I've concluded that they are not for me. For a
brief period in 1990-1991 I traded stocks and options fairly actively. I
made a few mistakes but on the whole I at least stayed even with the
bull market that followed Desert Storm. In my heart I'm a stockpicker, a
value investor and an academic student of computational finance.
