What's up Doc.

You wrote:
...and repeat myself that "I am a loser" and to concentrate and to prevent taking loses whenever possible.

I didn't need to do the "repeat to myself" part of that book.

I'm told this on a daily basis...

People stop dead in their tracks, giggle, point and me and repeat, "Ha! You're such a loser!"
Then they turn away and go on their merry way.

Does your book recommend repeating the phrase "Get out of my way you idiot?",
or "Get a life",
or "Why don't you take a long walk of a short pier",
or "Your so dumb you have to take off your shoes and drop your pants to help you count up to 20 1/2",
or "You make Dan Quale look like a brain surgeon",
or "Honey, stop it, not tonight".

...Oops the last one doesn't really apply but it is told me often enough...

The list goes on and on.
I could write a whole chapter for that author...

However, none of these things have helped me to be a better investor or trader.
