FAMILY="SANSSERIF">Hi,I am a student of the easy, still
learning.I do not claim to be a master of anything, let alone a
master of the difficult act of trading with the trend.I am not a
good enough trader to make money trading the trend - I leave that to the
masters of the difficult.One of my personal problems, which I am
actively working on, is a tendency to look for others
motivations. This is self-destructive, as there is then an
inclination to use such an (often false) assumption as lens to evaluate what
they say and do.False conclusions, more a reflection of myself than
reality, are the result. In trading this means
losses.One of the advantages I find in the following three trading
styles:

- market making,is I need to
make little or no projections. Even if a forecast
proves wrong, a higher probability trade becomes available. In
other words my predilection for false assumptions through using motivation
as a lens has little chance to undermine my trading results.Many
other traders seem to suffer, to one degree or another, from my problem of
evaluation through a lens of presumed motivation - in fact it seems to be a
rare person that has mostly overcome this tendency.Perhaps that is
why the majority of traders with consistent 50% plus annual returns and
limited draw-downs use one or more of the above three trading
styles.But perhaps I am a master of one thing - a master of being
wrong for I am wrong so often, I must be getting expert at it - especially
when I look for others motivations.And I do love being wrong - it is
one of the best ways to learn.Unconditional regards, Ric.<A
