No points are given for lacerations, contusions, or abrasions, but then no points are deducted, either. Kicking is very important in football. In fact, some of the more enthusiastic players even kick the ball, occasionally Picture Quote #1

A movement starts because of the social habits of friendship and the strong ties between close acquaintances.

The implication for the trader is that to win you have to act like the minority. If you bring normal human habits and tendencies to trading, you’ll gravitate toward the majority and inevitably lose Picture Quote #1

History gets reinterpreted as time goes on. Many times, the participants are lost in the retelling of the story Picture Quote #1

History demonstrates that participants in financial markets are susceptible to waves of optimism. Excessive optimism shows the seeds of its own reversal in the form of imbalances that tend to grow over time Picture Quote #1
