Hi all,
This forum is vast and I did attempt to find a thread similar to this one I'm writing now to avoid duplication but was unable to, so apologies if there already is one, moderators feel free to bin this one if so.
Others must have mused over this before, it's not terribly profound, but without further ado;
Trading is a zero sum game. We can't all win, all of the time. You're taking money from, or giving it to someone else, and broadly speaking the amount of money sloshing around is fairly constant. I appreciate that's a simplistic view but it doesn't matter for the sake of the question.
Who do you hope is on the losing end of your trades?
It often makes me smile wryly when I read people wishing others 'good luck' when (unless they're just spectators) the good luck the're wishing on someone could be bad luck they're wishing on themselves. It's a bit of a paradox really, a friendly comminity wishing each other well whilst trying to empty each others pockets on our trading platforms.
With the above in mind, I wish you all bad luck, but am still keen to hear your views
