AW: Street Smarts

I did not say she doesn't use these. I believe she uses these. I am saying if 
you use use them as such, you lose money. As was said, these are not meant to 
be a mechanical system, these are meant to be triggers. You use triggers in 
combination with the correct setup. The setups are not discussed there, and 
they are up to you to figure out.

| Gwenael;
|
| I heard from a reliable source that Linda "uses" the
| techniques in Street Smarts actively, and you can see
| this on her chat page (live time).
|
| I was on the phone with an aquaintance of hers and he
| asked me if I saw her trade on Cotton (a few months
| back).  I of course said "no", but he later on went to
| say it was a Holy Grail set up etc.
|
| So Linda does use the methods she does write about in
| the Street Smarts book real time.  I actually sat in
| on her sessions and saw her taking some setups on
| line.
|
| I personally have traded her Anti setup and it has
| worked very well.
