JEB,

That means that they are not afraid to get out with a loss IMO and move on. They don't let it irk them.

7.Successful traders are not afraid to buy high and sell low.

My interpretation was that there is often money to be made going long on a stock that is at or near a 52 week high; conversely there is money to be made on the short side of a stock that is descending toward its 52 week low.

For example, many thought the internet stocks seemed to be peaking a year ago, and so these investors avoided such stocks. But the stocks have continued their climb. The same was true of some of the blue chip tech stocks like Dell and Microsoft.

On the short side, many people started buying oil field service stocks a year ago, because "they couldn't go any lower". But I bet some prudent traders have made money on the short side of this beaten down sector.

That's just my interpretation.

Selling low to me, is when i sell on my stop. who said where that is, all that was stated was " tight" .

Those rules have been around for a very long time, and if you can come to a point that you totally understand and follow all those rules, you just might make it as a trader, break more then 2 of them and you are sunk !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Better off bagging grocery's.
