So you think honest effort is all that matters. Being right or wrong is not important. I don't know about that. In this business if you are consistently wrong you lose your money. If you influence others to be wrong, then you can cause them to lose money. That is pretty important. I think an honest effort results in being right more than wrong. So what is an honest effort? If you have the necessary intelligence and can overcome your bias and will work at mastering a successful system and have the self-discipline to use it, you will be right more often than wrong. I think these four things make up an honest effort. Anything less is an incomplete, halfhearted, perhaps lazy or ignorant effort. That effort will not get the job done in this business. That is why such a small % of traders make money. So, with what I call an honest effort you will be successful, and you may help others be successful along the way. Their success, however, is up to them. One old and valuable lesson I have learned is that you can lead a horse to water but you cannot make him drink. But that is just me. Of course, everyone can feel free to have another opinion.
