@merrittblack Choppiness destroys me. I have terrible days when it chops about. I've got to figure those days out, and soon.

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

@merrittblack "The Checklist Manifesto" by Atul Gawande is a very interesting book on that exact subject.

@merrittblack Looks like my day during the qualifier. I know I shouldn't trade the afternoons but I did it anyway. 😁

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

@merrittblack 😂😂😂
Leave it.

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

@merrittblack Tom Hougaard's book "Best Loser Wins" is a pretty good book about that subject.

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

@merrittblack Beautiful.

@elonmusk How about lobbying as a federal offense punishable by up to 20 years for first offenses.
That would solve about 80-90% of the corruption in our government.

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

@elonmusk I don't think we should pay any taxes on our personal income since it's a fair trade of our time and/or knowledge but if absolutely necessary something like Herman Cain's 999tax plan could be feasible.

@vulturetrades Play

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

@vulturetrades "Join"

@elonmusk Can't fix stupid...

@merrittblack This was introduced to me by Dr. Van Tharp. I still use it when I get to trade.

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

@merrittblack Anything over 1.0 is tradeable (has positive edge).
The higher the number the more edge the system has( easier to trade).
Very few Systems exist with a number between 5 and 7. Anything over 7 would be a 'holy grail system '
Hope that can help.

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

@merrittblack Not sure it's exactly what you are looking for but Dr. Van Tharp had a formula to determine system quality, which I think is the equivalent of edge in trading. I still use it when I'm able to trade.

[Scott Bentley @SLBentley01]

@merrittblack I love checklists. Especially after reading The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande.
Check it out if you haven't already. 😉
