Here's a strange one but it's getting less and less amusing:
I'm on a trading list and there's this guy who keeps talking about emotions but
never says a thing about trading. And to make matters worse, when people
tell him to shut up, he thinks that is really their way of trying to encourage
him. Really strange.

Subject: [RT] Amusing and Strange
Hi,I thought you might like me to share this
unusual experience.I have received many private emails of support and
encouragement - thank you again.Most such emails will be private because
few want the wrath of the crowd on their heads.But I have just received
my first PRIVATE angry email regarding "Masters of the Difficult or Students of
the Easy" and follow-ups.This was most surprising in two
ways: - most
negative emails are written to the group looking for support (as there
is
normally insufficient integrity in the senders to write directly and
they are
not in learning mode
anyway), - this
email accused me, in the same paragraph, of proclaiming myself
as: - a
trading
master, - a
terrible trader.Even if one was true (and the second is true for
trend-following styles) ,it truly amazing how emotion could get my respondent to
hold such conflicting ideas simultaneously.I am used to people not
reading, or reading what their emotions tell them they have read, but this
'black and white' held simultaneously is a first in my experience.A
lesson for us all - because we all get clouded by emotions from time to
time.But maybe you have a stranger tale to tell writ by traders
emotions?Unconditional regards, Ric.<A
