I yak a lot about my losers but now for some winners....

paper trading is OK BUT, it is NOT the real world... these next examples explain why paper trading/system test or dreaming to get out at the high would have shown a larger profit than I did realize

(no comish accounted for and out at high)

ECHO...paper 129% ...real 57% sold next day at stall, thinking it would
go up

ISAC... paper 309% ...real 140% puter crashed for half of trade, other sold on stall

RACE paper 61% ...real 35% had to go to work, lucked out home for lunch

then there was BAMM which should have been a BIG winner but I placed a market order....making it a BIG loser

hard to take somebody else's money....
