Being perfect is a goal not a reality. Shoot for birdies, not pars. If I was content, I would have covered today at 117+, gone and had a beer and would have had no regrets. That's not the game. I have nothing to lose! They gave me last rights at birth. I wasn't suppose to make it anyway! There is the old phrase that pigs get slaughtered. Glenn

Again, this "being perfect" thing is a subjective matter. The absolute "perfection" is to buy at every low, sell at every high, immediately short at this high, and cover at the next low, and repeat this cycle. However, as both you and I know, this does not exist. Birdies do happen from time to time as they are real. But being perfect on WS is just a wishful thinking that nobody could ever fulfill. If your understanding of perfection is not the one I described above, we are back to the subjective ground again. Someone's "just feel comfortable return rate" may be a lot higher than your "perfection return rate":) Danny
