The smart ones do. They take the ball, invest the time and many are doing great. A number moved to full time and are very successful. They give credit to those who helped and the tools they use, but they molded their own. Dave, glad to see you drop by. Been a long time, no see. Come back and drop some pearls of wisdom on us.

"But wouldn't any "newbie" have enough sense NOT to trade if he (she) didn't have a system they had thoroughly backtested?" PLEASE!!! What percentage of traders out there do you really think have a 'system,' let alone a backtested system? I think less than 5%. 95% may think they have a system, but it's not really one. And they wouldn't know a system if it hit them in the face, because most gurus, for what ever reason, are just not inclined to discuss it in any depth (at least that's the experience so far). Nicholas
