If life ever ceased to be an educational experience, I probably wouldn’t get out of bed.

It’s like we’ve ripped the humanity out of our companies, we have this double standard when it comes to the way we value businesses. You know what? It’s threatening the very underpinnings of our society.

The most important thing is how good are you at risk control. Ninety-percent of any great trader is going to be the risk control.

The secret to being successful from a trading perspective is to have an indefatigable and an undying and unquenchable thirst for information and knowledge.

Trading gives you an incredibly intense feeling of what life is all about.

Trading is very competitive and you have to be able to handle getting your butt kicked.

First if all, never play macho man in the market. Second, never overtrade. My major problem was not the number of points I lost on the trade, but that I was trading far too many contracts relative to the equity in the accounts that I handled.

After a while size means nothing. It gets back to whether you’re making 100% rate of return on $10,000 or $100 million dollars. It doesn’t make any difference.

Don’t ever average losers. Decrease your trading volume when you are trading poorly; increase your volume when you are trading well. Never trade in situations where you don’t have control. For example, I don’t risk significant amounts of money in front of key reports, since that is gambling, not trading.
