I know, but I can't resist one last dig:

Let's play therapist. O.K. #1 Supposed deadly sin of day traders is No discipline to keep stop loss. Which segues into this: "During my trading calls I frequently hear..."

(What does this refer to? What are her "trading calls"? I don't think she's talking derivatives...)

Anyway, moving on, we have "The Solution! Develop a list of all the reasons why it is a must for you to stick to your stop loss points. i.e. if I continue to violate my stop loss rule I will have to get a real job, and work for someone."

Here we see why this rates as sin #1. Could THIS be the flighty robin's deepest fear manifesting itself? That she does not consider daytrading a real job is beside the point. That she puts as fear #1, above all else, "getting a real job"-----now THAT is telling. Not that she fears failure, or fears losing hard-earned money, or fears losing face, or fears facing retirement without much money, but fears GETTING A REAL JOB!

As much as I love analyzing, I don't have time to analyze #2 Deadly Sin tonight. Law and Order is having a two hour special. But feel free to send me a pm and for a small fee I will gladly...

hi, Bill.
not a waste of time at all, enjoying your posts very much... it makes me laugh real hard ... i even bookmarked it to see if she ever answers anything... not much hope though.. she can't even keep up a conversation in the live chat room.. besides saying, that she doesn't seem to know much about trading at all including any L2 related info, which she btw started to teach too... (..almost p*ssed in my pants :)
seems like anyone can teach anything these days having read a few books on the topic ( ..books, that are not up to date ), and btw.. you don't have to be very good in english too (typing at least).. not that i am an english master.. but still :)

anyway.. good trading to ya.. and cya later :)
vadim.

P.S. don't stay up too long... the market needs ya fresh and healthy tmrw :)
