emotion is the silent killer in the markets..............thats why having a "plan" when purchasing a position has helped me. I have little sticky notes on my monitor of my positions. Having them there reminds of the unemotional plan I had when I bought or went short. It's improved my performance. It has helped with "capital preservation". Sometimes i've been whipped but mostly the quick exit is better. I've lost 12% in the miners over the last 2 months. Could have been 25% or more. When the trend changes I'll go back in . Been trading the oils again, they seem to be working for me. Rim conference gotta go.....cmg
