Even though I have been unsuccessful in using it my trading, I do believe
there is something to astrology. BUT, this latest poll was absurd. Knowing
the sign of every person on this list would be worthless as far as drawing
any type of conclusion regarding the correlation of a given sign and
trading success. Now if everyone were to send in their last twelve months
of account statements along with their sign then MAYBE some correlation
could be drawn.

John,
Sounds like a very closed minded approach. If some people can make astro
work for
trading, why not show a little tolerance. It is the lack of tolerance and
flexibility that is the root of many of our problems today and throughout
history.
