Dear Turtle Trader! This is just the best description of a pro trader, of the personal side of trading I have ever read. The aims you set here are what we're all working towards I believe. I just cognited something here. My mechanical-strategy-mania comes from an early period of trading (last...

Dear Neil and Turtle Trader, I am getting to understand the difference between these two points of view. 1. The "lazy bum", who wants to buy a simple, easily tradeable and profitable system and 2. Those who are in the know. Here is my approach to this. I used to supervise courses for adults...
