I Spend My Day Trying To Make

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.

The Most Important Rule Is To Play Great Defense, Not Great Offense. Everyday I Assume Every Position I Have Is Wrong. I Know Where My Stop Risk Points Are Going To Be. I Do That So I Can Define My Maximum Drawdown. Hopefully, I Spend The Rest Of The Day Enjoying Positions That Are Going In My Direction. If They Are Going Against Me, Then I Have A Game Plan For Getting Out.

Fundamentals Might Be Good For The First Third Or First 50 Or 60 Percent Of A Move, But The Last Third Of A Great Bull Market Is Typically A Blow-off, Whereas The Mania Runs Wild And Prices Go Parabolic... There Is No Training, Classroom Or Otherwise, That Can Prepare For Trading The Last Third Of A Move, Whether It's The End Of A Bull Market Or The End Of A Bear Market.

I Am More Scared Now That I Was At Any Point Since I Began Trading, Because I Recognize How Ephemeral Success Can Be In This Business. I Know That To Be Successful, I Have To Be Frightened. My Biggest Hits Have Always Come After I Have Had A Great Period And I Started To Think That I Knew Something.
