DislikedI disagree completely - if you can't trade a demo in the way supertrader9 is attempting to do - you have no basis really trying to trade cash. The mentality is the same. What you need is self assurance that your approach works and it will not matter whether it is cash or demo. I would encourage the approach the young man has adopted.
BTW: That is what I did after losing over $20k cash - went back to demo, treated it like cash and mastered my emotions, techniques and market theory. The idea that demo trading is different than trading cash is cliched...Ignored
