Hey, Smart$, re: letting your inner voice out: May I
make a suggestion---get a cat! Then you can talk to him
instead of to yourself---it may keep you out of the
looney bin. People can think you're crazy if you start
that muttering to yourself stuff <g>
Mine keep me company all day long.
Here's my script for an etrade commercial (what the heck
it's Friday, time to lighten up):
Man and cat looking at screen.
Man and cat look at each other.
Man says:"Well, whaddya think Elwood, should we light
this candle??"
Cat says (sotto voce):"Oh Yeah"
Final shot: Cat looks at camera, shakes his head and
rolls his eyes, and little dollar signs roll across his
pupils. Fade out to Pink Floydesque' money tune...

Also, have you read "The Inner Game of Trading" by Koppel
and Abell. If so what do you think? It sounds right down
your alley. I have spent more time on mastering
techniques, studying TA, researching sectors etc. than
mastering emotions...

I bet you get bored of listening to yourself ramble on;)...I completely agree that it is beneficial for traders to externalize their feelings on the market. What I like to do is ramble on in MIRC.

That way you can actually look at what you've typed and pass judgement on it. I suppose any chat room would do as long as it's not one of those large rooms where you get lost in the shuffle.

Cheers!
