Dislikedwell, maybe, just maybe u've summed it up lah. lol.
i just think the teacher has become a bit fiesty as of late, proly due to our inability to grasps his teaching even after various examples. Im starting to believe that its impossible to learn this unless i get personal training from him. sigh.
anyway, i think the loss of several prominent members and some who has silently dissappeared to may have affected him, he's quite attached to a few of the veterans here and now the've gone. im just speculating tho, but if i were in his shoes i'd be affected too. aiya, what to do....Ignored
Not possible at all to summarize. I think trading is on going thing and can only be finally said we are successful or not till the day we quit. I don't think everyperson will like trading, the passion toward trading cannot be teach, those who love trading...love it by born nature trait, hope I am right! and I bet you will never quit trading in your lifetime, regardless of your result, I knew it for sure. A little bit like gambling addition, Ha! Ha!
If trading can make one bankrupt (to the extreme), it must also able to make one rich. I think Mr FTI's way of trading is the highest level of trading which I mean is one can always survive in trading unlike other rigid trading method which (maybe) cannot last long enough when failed to adapt to change in market. You know, one thing100% sure is market must win or there will be no market, and this CANNOT happen. Lat time, I tend to ask/search/think how to know market's direction? How to predict PA will goes up or down? Ha! Ha! I still do it, but when I get more and more experienced, (specially after reading this thread that free my trading thought about rules of trading), I am able to spot it, guard it and overcome it more steadily, by telling myself that if I can predict, market will not exist. This mean my prediction is nothing more than a 50/50 guess, and I know I cannot win by only relying such a 50/50 guess to trade.
Thus, other factors must come in and works together hand in hand to win the trade, these is what Mr FTI has already mentioned and the most three important factors are the Market, Us the traders and the $ capitalisation.
I have so much to say yet (my thought, not sure wrong or right), but later when I free again. Oh!, Trust me, I believe Mr FTI's emotion will never ACTUALLY be influenced/affected by us or anybody based on his vast life/trading experience, his current financial status and his wisdom. If not, he will not be that successful in trading.....
