Dear contributors;

I have followed this exchange with much interest.    My sternly Puritanical background has often caused me to question subconsciously (pops up consciously

from time to time) the religious ethics of trading.   I sit and I plot and plan and my brain is the only thing exercised.   I have an exercise plan I keep fairly tightly to compensate for the fact that - urgent as I may feel - my brow remains dry and my hands clean.    I recognise that beyond my small enterprise there is a vast number of people who are employed to keep the whole juggernaut running from which they earn a salary or wage.    Nothing to do with pitting one trader versus another.    That is a comfort to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    I really like "transfer of risk from one trader to another".    Thank you v much.

 

I have said previously and will repeat.     This is an excellent forum for all sorts of reasons and not just for Phaedrus" charts and McDunk's sometimes hilarious donations and Morgy's so in depth evaluations and all the rest of you excellent contributors.    Keep on with it - I am disappointed when I don't have the time to truly appreciate what is being set forth.

Subject: [sharechat] Gambling

Gambling is a game of chance where risk is maximised by the Gambler and minimised by the House.

True trading is the transfer of risk from one trader to another. If you do not believe in the mathmatical outcome of the Markets then you are truely Gambling. As for belittleling members of the forum, this I have not done. This is however my last posting as I am truely the minority among you. I shall however leave you with a gift.

Between the 9th and the 12th of October will be the next High of the SPI. If I am wrong then you all will be proved right.

However if I am right I shall remain intouch for those willing to learn.
