The Screen Trader is a Quarterback
In many ways, trading mirrors many sports.
For example, a trader trading for his/her own account is like a quarterback in football....
So, if you are a trader, why not encompass the thinking of a quarterback?
"Bad things happen when the quarterback holds on to the ball"
Likened to a trade that goes against a trader; the trader must have the fortitude: 1. to exit the trade; 2. to temporarily drop the experience from one's mind (short memory) and, to go on to the next trade.
