There are two forces acting upon us: Suffering pushes us forward from behind and pleasures entice us and pull us forward.

You must have correct understanding of how the markets move.

So Knowledge is required.

From there a logical strategy can be formulated.

to make money you have to sell (whatever it is) at higher price than you paided for it.

Hey Scratty!

A little less market orientated would be (like your sig says) losing like a pro.
Give them nothing but take everything.

Space/lot managment defently gave me a better edge and has
become one of my highest priority's.

Other then that stamina , patience and a reason why :D

(im sorry if i have misunderstood your topic :D)

You need the ability to trade your plan through the difficult times; this is facilitated by a belief in your trading plan.

As MighyOne once said,
    "Money is something that happens to people who do the right things irrespective of short term results."


You can do the right things irrespective of short term results when you have a core philosophy deep in your mind; when you truly believe in your core philosophy, (you can accept losses, b/c you KNOW you are doing the right thing), you can follow your rules systematically, and allow them (read: WAIT for them) to lead you into the opportunities to participate in the market profitably.
