Would it be possible to get back to talking about
trading the markets.
Psycho analysis we can get from other
places.

Ric,
The "selling" comment was not meant in a
derogatory manner. Your own "emotional response or reaction" needs some
polishing off it would seem?

Hi,This is short, but as usual I am
still attempting to provoke you to think.Thank you for all responses
- for I see them all as valid.My 'master/student' email has evoked a
range of responses from "thanks", to "insightful", to "thought-provoking"
to"yes, but", to "selling", to "garbage", to "long" to "pedantic"
to...The sheer range of responses to the self-same email, suggests
that the response probably says more about each responder, than it says
about the content or value of any email they are responding to.In
particular the "selling" comment reminds me of Andy Warhol who suggested
that "Shopping is more American than thinking.".This mastery of
emotional response or reaction is a key concept for traders to grasp - or
else they will be forever victims of the markets whim (losers of capital)
rather than an exploiter of whatever happens (winners of capital).So
this is a key skill of repeatable successful trading and not giving the
money back - getting past your emotional reaction to recognise that it is
your emotional reaction that makes you a victim. Not what the
market does.For those whose emotional responses are still clouding
their ability to see their emotional responses as just that - their
responses (note the ownership) - good luck in releasing yourself from
self-imposed slavery as one of lifes victims. For those
that do not need the luck, thank you for lighting the way, for I am still
somewhat in the dark and enjoying what little light others have shed before
me.Unconditional regards, Ric.<A

P.S.For those who complained of length, I notice many
complainers attached my email in full.Perhaps a case of the 'pot
calling the kettle black'. Another opportunity for
self-insight perhaps? To unsubscribe from this group,
