It is a happy circumstance that when nature gives us true burning desires, she also gives us the means to satisfy them. Those who want to win and lack skill can get someone with skill to help them.

The trading rules I live by are: 1. Cut losses. 2. Ride winners. 3. Keep bets small. 4. Follow the rules without question. 5. Know when to break the rules.

If you can't take a small loss, sooner or later you will take the mother of all losses.

My style is basically trend following, with some special pattern recognition and money management algorithms.

Win or lose, everybody gets what they want out of the market. Some people seem to like to lose, so they win by losing money.

Traders and Surfers both have to deal with feelings of missing out on the small ones, until the big one comes along. They also have to deal with feelings of staying with the big one.

A lot of people would rather understand the market than make money

It can be very expensive to try to convince the markets you are right.

The key to long-term survival and prosperity has a lot to do with the money management techniques incorporated into the technical system.

The markets are the same now as they were five or ten years ago because they keep changing-just like they did then

The elements of good trading are: 1, cutting losses. 2, cutting losses. And 3, cutting losses. If you can follow these three rules, you may have a chance.

Faith is to believe in something when common sense tells you not to and situation surrounding you says otherwise.

You define a good flight by negatives: you didn't get hijacked, you didn't crash, you didn't throw up, you weren't late, you weren't nauseated by the food. So you are grateful.

Rigorous financial discipline that, together with monetary stability, ends once and for all the boom and bust that for 30 years has undermined stability

No endeavour is in vain; Its reward is in the doing.

Love me. Love my umbrella.

I feel like at the Olympics I gave the best performance of my life and I wasn't rewarded for that as an athlete. Yes, my fans and my mom were happy about it, but I didn't win that gold medal.

The idea of perfection can be a tyrant you should overthrow, to gain your freedom.

I like to write for actors I know and with whom I've worked before. You can write to their strengths and weaknesses and write roles that are better suited to them.

Running a business is not the same as being president of the United States.

It was a basic plot in any number of her books: girl strikes out, makes good, finds love, gets revenge. In that order. The making good and striking out part I liked. The rest would just be bonus.
