Tim-
 
You pose some extremely interesting, important, and 
complex questions.  I think the eventual answers to what you 
are
seeking may have <FONT face=Arial 
size=2>more to do with yourself than Ira.  I 
do not know Ira; only that he is reputed to be a successful <FONT 
face=Arial size=2>ex-floor trader (I think) who made his living trading the 
markets.  Your success and failure will be 
determined by discovering answers to the following; at least imho.  

 
*  Is Ira's trading system compatible 
with my temperment and personality?  
*  Do I understand; and am I willing to 
emotionally accept the degree of risk in any given trade?
*  Are my BELIEFS about myself and the stock 
market the same as Ira's?  (This is a tough nut to crack and there 
are
nuances about this which I myself do not completely 
understand.)  Stated deceptively simple; if your beliefs are not 
the
same you will not meet with the same success.  
 
 
The following has been 
proven.  Successful traders have attempted to teach others how to 
trade by revealing 100% details
of their trading system:  concept, 
backtesting results, bet sizing, entry/exit rules, etc. you name it.  
Yet; for psychological
reasons (and the reason may be different for each 
individual) very few of the students are able to replicate their 
mentor's
success going forward.  
 
Of course there is the obvious example of those who 
are good at trading but who; for some reason <FONT face=Arial 
size=2>or another; cannot teach <FONT 
face=Arial size=2>others how to trade.  Alternatively; successful 
traders may have poor teaching skills.  Each of us have innate skills 
and
talents.  Some folks can build planes and 
explain how they fly; but are lousy pilots.  All these are sidebars which I 
don't
think applies to Ira.  <FONT 
face=Arial size=2>Speaking of teaching; there is a theory that one cannot truly 
'teach' anyone anything; rather the learning 
process is an inside/outside process.  Indeed; the derivitave of the word 
'educate' is 'to draw from within'.  

 
I'm not a shrink; nor a master trader; so I would 
please like others to chime in and tell me 
where I am wrong and why?  
 
Thank you.

  Subject: [RT] Looking for information in 
  Ira Tunik
  Hi group,I am looking for information and feedback from 
  people who have worked with Ira Tunik.  I am looking for someone to 
  teach me a profitable trading system, and Ira claims to teach a simple and 
  effective method for trading anything.  I thought perhaps this group 
  would be a good place to ask for feedback before I contacted him.  My 
  only information comes from a friend of a friend of a friend who knew 
  someone who had worked with him.  Any and all feedback is 
  appreciated.Thank
