Hi Vadym Graifer; Re telling your wife that you were "flat." If she's like most wives I've known, if you told her that you had lost money, she'd start giving you a lot of advice you didn't want to hear. Or give you attention that you really don't need. I really think that there is a tendency for other people to influence traders to trade badly. People will also suggest that you aren't taking enough risks if you are simply being careful with your money. And having gamblers around tends to influence everybody to overtrade, I think, especially after the gamblers have a good run of luck. Suddenly, I think of my ex. Seems she was always worried about being "flat." Never seemed to bother me. -- Carl
