By the way I have nothing against investors in any way. I just find it curious if ANYONE expects to get on a professional field as a hobby and try to run some plays amongst a very trained crowd and wonder why they cannot score and why they even get hurt. Though I am surely against any kind of illegal tackle. It is everyone's right to play but winning is no right. People would never get on a professional football or hockey field and risk physical pain but they risk their emotional and monetary health all the time without proper preparation. I think pointing this out to new aspiring traders and investors is a sign of good ethics and morality despite what Dave says about me. There is more to be gained in the market by focusing on how to improve your efforts in the markets than there is by trying to reduce the competition. Especially if you do not have time due to other responsibilities. That is the only message I infer.
