Great quote!
It describes perfectly the only way mentoring could work in trading...

Hummm, sounds like Marty just bet the farm on a Naked Leap. Whenever you reach the point where you think the outcome of any particular trade is important, it's time to dust off your resume.I think the point of his quote is that you should look forward and not backwards.
If your last trade was a losing trade, don't beat yourself up because of that. Move on and don't let emotions cloud your judgement.
If your last trade was a winning trade, don't think you are invincible. Move on and don't let emotions cloud your judgement.

How much is ur account up for this month? are ur swings working for u?Hi Ammeo,
Yes, they are working for me.
However, I am currently in a drawdown, which is part of the business.
I will post performance figures after 6 months of trading. Currently, I have posted less than 2 months of trading. So, you have to be patient
Please keep in mind that I do not scalp, but keep positions longer. So, anything less than 6 months of performance are not a large enough sample size to draw any conclusions (one year would be even better). This is of course different, for instance, for a method which produces 15 or more signals each day. But this is not what I am doing here.
Regards,
k
