>It constantly amazes me how many traders are willing to put their money and profits at unnecissary risks by not sticking to their system and their plan for the trade.< Most traders who lose their money do so for two reasons. 1. They don't take the time(and it takes a long time)to develope a "system" 2. As you said they cannot stick to their system. One might ask why..fear or greed? Fear would be if someone had a big drawdown and therfore was afraid to continue to follow their rules.I think most fail because of greed. They do a trade and see it go farther and say "look how much I COULD HAVE made" Those words COULD HAVE are killers. David
