These questions always amuse me...

amateur investors.....

A question to the board: Guess which group of traders amateur or professional is still in the game, still trading, and prospering months and years later?


How would you determine a pro from an amateur?

I would say that the amateurs have to go to an office every day and report to a boss. 8)

Where do you draw the line for "traders"? 100 trades a day? once a day? Once a month? Once a quarter?

I am sure you meant well, but it sounds a bit "arrogant" to me.

Oh well, maybe it is because I have never hedged a position and yet have averaged an annualized 30% over the last 7 yrs?

regards
Kirk
