Quotable Quotes

Some very good quotes that I’ve come across in Techniques of Tape Reading which I completed reading recently:

-“This (Trading) is not a job where you get paid by the hour. You get paid for doing the right thing”

-“Forget that your money is at stake. Money in trading account is just a tool for making money. Preserve your tool. You need it to make money”

-“Don’t let the outcome of one trade alter your trading discipline. One trade doesn’t make a system…”

-“Trading is a game of probabilities. You don’t have to be right every time. You just have to follow your rules”

-“You decide your fate; the market doesn’t”

-“Pure followers of stock pickers will never be around…Learn or you are bankrupt”

-“Be aggressive in trending market and conservative in choppy market”

“Take home runs when you can, but don’t beat yourself up about missing a few. One trade should never make or break your account”

Hi STO :

Thanks for taking the time to put up these valuable quotable quotes.

In fact, some of these golden nuggets brought back some sad memories of my trading account when I didn't realize the severity of not practicing them :)

Yours Truly,

Hi Tony,
These are some of my personal fave quote as well and indeed many of us are guilty of breaking the rules until we learn the lesson :)
