The Virtues of Trading the Markets
By: George Harrison of The Money Tigers Group
I Love the Word: ‘Virtue’.
It’s so seldom used today, yet, was a foundation stone of education a 100 years ago in America. Indeed, it was part of a sound Classical Education which is not promoted today. Not by a long shot.
Virtues, like Patience and Moderation were dealt with as distinct goals to strive for to perfect one’s nature into something more spiritual or divine.
While the markets are far from divine playgrounds, still, I’ve noticed that these same Virtues are exactly what we need to become successful as tradings in the markets or as human beings anywhere.
When facing the screen trading, we’re largely really facing a mirror with our darker side staring back at us.
The opposite of Virtues are vices, and, I propose that due to our present decline in education and spiritual guidance these past generations, we are largely surrounded by vices disguised as virtues.
If we were practiced in Patience, for instance, would be inclined to stray from our trading methods at the worst moments? In a word, no.
Moderation, another virtue, would restrain us from feelings of going into positions too heavily or not heavily enough.
The list could go on as you can see. And, I’ve only listed two of the Virtues we could all do well to cultivate. I’ll keep this post short, but, wanted to bring this subject up. Those who have read the book offered here about “Unleashing Your Inner Super Trader”, know that I mention these factors as subconscious elements that combine to make our trading process successful or unsuccessful. You can receive this book for free when you join our group (also FREE). Look for the form on this site to sign up.
This is largely done without our notice, but, can be addressed if we can give a name (Like ‘Virtue’) to those elements we wish to enhance and call those patterns of misbehavior by the name they deserve (‘vices’) so we can be done with them and dispose of them more easily.
“What we can name, we can tame.”
That’s the quote I’ll leave you with today. I’m off now to do some cultivating of some Virtues of my own. Catch you later. – George

Forget the Deflation Mantra . . . For Now
Hello my friends.
It’s taken many weeks and months, but, I’ve finally had enough of the “Inflation vs. Deflation” arguments by the ‘experts’ and talking heads out there in media land. And, not just them. I’m sitting here with the latest flyer to hit my mailbox expounding on the imminent dangers of DEFLATION running amok and creating the next Great Depression.
This clever brochure has the same characteristics as most presentations on the inflation/deflation theme. Everything is backed up by charts and statistics. You could easily read or listen to either argument and agree by the end that each was correct in their assumption.
Where does that leave you but confused and a market schizophrenic. A bad state to be in when considering one’s portfolio or how to manage one’s nest egg unemotionally.
So, let’s draw back and dip our toes back into REALITY, shall we?
Can we agree as a starting point that what has NOT happened, doesn’t need to be worried about?
We can? Good. Now, we can get somewhere!
Here’s the bottom line of my observations (using my own unconventional tools):
