1) An inoordinate fascination with money is destructive to ones self.
2) An inoordinate fascination with short term price fluctuations will damage long-term performance.
3) Fundamentals are ipmortant only at the larger time scales (several months to years)
4) Two predefined exit prices are necessary to do well on a transaction. (Cutting a loss is just as "good" as taking a profit for long term investment goals.)
5) No free lunches -- increased leverage means increased risk of loss as well as potential for gain.
6) The primary goal in trading options shoud be reducing the risks to get a good risk-adjusted return.
7) Momentum investing is bad or stupid when other people are profiting from it and not you.
