MONEY MANAGEMENT AND TRADING GUIDELINES

Trade in the direction of the intermediate trend.
In uptrends, buy the dips; in downtrends, sell bounces.
Let profits run, cut losses short.
Always use protective stops to limit losses.
Don't trade impulsively; have a plan.
Plan your work and work your plan.
Use money management principles.
Diversify, but don't overdo it.
Employ at least a 3 to 1 reward-to-risk ratio.
When pyramiding (adding positions), follow these guidelines,
Each successive layer should be smaller than before
Add only to winning positions.
Never add to a losing position.
Adjust protective stops to the breakeven point.
To prevent margin calls, make sure total equity is at least 75% of total margin requirements.
Close out losing positions before the winning ones.
Except for very short-term trading, make decisions away from the market, preferably when the markets are closed.
Work from the long term to the short term.
Use intra-day charts to fine-tune entry and exit points.
Master inter-day trading before trying intra-day trading.
Try to ignore conventional wisdom; don't take anything said in the printed media too seriously.
Learn to be comfortable being in the minority. If you are right on the market, most people will disagree with you.
Technical analysis is a skill that improves with experience and study. Always be a student and keep learning.
Keep it simple; more complicated isn't always better.

TOP 50 REASONS WHY TRADERS LOOSE MONEY

1. Many traders trade without a plan. 
2. Usually they liquidate the good trades and keep the bad ones. 
3. After several profitable trades, many speculators become wild and unconservative. 
4. Traders often try to carry too big a position with too little capital, and trade too frequently for the size of the account.
5. Some traders try to "beat the market" by day-trading, nervous scalping, and getting greedy.
6. They fail to pre-define risk, add to a losing position, and fail to use stops.
7. They frequently have a directional bias; for example, always wanting to be long.
8. Lack of experience in the market causes many traders to become emotionally and/or financially committed to one trade, and unwilling or unable to take a loss. They may be unable to admit they have made a mistake, or they look at the market in too short a timeframe.
9. They overtrade.
10. Many traders can't (or don't) take the small losses.
11. Many traders get a fundamental case and hang onto it, even after the market technically turns. Only believe fundamentals as long as the technical signals follow. Both must agree.
12. Many traders break a cardinal rule: "Cut losses short. Let profits run."
13. Many people trade with their hearts instead of their heads. 
14. Often traders have bad timing, and not enough capital to survive the shake out.
15. Too many traders perceive Spot/Cash markets as an intuitive arena.
16. Not following a disciplined trading program leads to accepting large losses and small profits. 
17. Emotion makes many traders hold a loser too long. 
18. Too many traders are underfinanced, and get washed out at the extremes.
19. Greed causes some traders to allow profits to dwindle into losses while hoping for larger profits.
20. Trying to trade inactive markets is dangerous.
21. Taking too big a risk with too little profit potential is a sure way to losses.
22. Often, traders do not recognize the difference between trading markets and trending markets.
23. Lack of discipline is a major shortcoming.
24. Trading against the trend, especially without reasonable stops, and insufficient capital to trade with and/or improper money management are major causes of large losses in the Spot/Cash markets; however, a large capital base alone does not guarantee success.
25. Overtrading is dangerous, and often stems from lack of planning.
26. Trading very speculative counters is a frequent mistake.
27. There is a striking inability to stay with winners. Most traders are too willing to take small profits and, therefore, miss out on big profits. Another problem is undercapitalization; small accounts can't diversify, and can't use valid stops.
28. Some traders are on an ego trip and won't take advice from another person; any trade must be their idea.
29. Many traders have the habit of not cutting losses fast, and getting out of winners too soon.
30. Many traders overtrade their accounts.
31. Spot/Cash traders tend to have no discipline, no plan, and no patience. 
32. Staying with a losing position, because a trader's information (or worse yet, intuition) indicates the deteriorating market is only a temporary situation, can lead to large losses.
33. Lack of risk capital in the market means inadequate capital for diversification and staying power in the market.
34. Some speculators don't have the temperament to accept small losses in a trade, or the patience to let winners ride.
35. Greed.
36. Not having a trading plan results in a lack of money management. 
37. Frequently, traders judge markets on the local situation only, rather than taking the worldwide situation into account.
38. Speculators allow emotions to overcome intelligence when markets are going for them or against them. They do not have a plan and follow it. A good plan must include defense points (stops).
39. Some traders are not willing to believe price action, and thus trade contrary to the trend.
40. Many speculators trade only one counter.
41. Getting out of a rallying counter too quickly, or holding losers too long results in losses.
42. Trading against the trend is a common mistake. 
43. Often, traders jump into a market based on a story in the morning paper; the market many times has already discounted the information.
44. Lack of self-discipline on the part of the trader and/or broker creates losses.
45. Traders tend to do inadequate research.
46. Most traders overtrade without doing enough research. 
47. Many speculators use "conventional wisdom" which is either "local," or "old news" to the market. 
48. Too many traders do not apply money management techniques. 
49. Many traders are undercapitalized. They trade positions too large, relative to their available capital.
50. Don't make trading decisions based on inside information. It's illegal, and besides, it's usually wrong.

There you have them, fifty rules from more than a thousand brokers who have handled more than 20,000 accounts. They've seen what worked, what didn't, and why. Following these rules will not necessarily lead to success. Breaking them could increase your chances of failure. Spot/Cash trading is not for everyone. Spot/Cash trading involves the risk of loss.

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time

Feature Film: 7 July 2006 / 98 minutes

Director: Mamoru Hosoda

Art Director: Nizo Yamamoto

Background Artist: Kazuo Oga

This theatrical production by Madhouse of The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (時をかける少女 Toki o Kakeru Shoujo (Tokikake)?) is one of eight film or TV adaptations (and the only animated one) based on the 1967 manga by Yasutaka Tsutsui (筒井 康隆 Tsutsui Yasutaka?) (Paprika). The film premiered on Tanabata, 7 July 2006 in Japan and on 19 November 2006 in North America at the Waterloo Festival for Animated Cinema.

The film has many of the crowd-pleasing qualities of a Studio Ghibli film. Not surprising, given that it was directed by Mamoru Hosoda, the director originally selected to helm Howl's Moving Castle. It also features the work of two current or former long-time Ghibli veterans, with art direction by Nizo Yamamoto, and background art in part by Kazuo Oga (freelancing for Ogura Workshop).

The story centers on 17-year-old Makoto Konno, who one day accidentally gains the ability to, quite literally, "leap" backwards through time. She immediately does what any teenager would do, using this power for simple things like improving her grades and preventing mishaps for herself and her friends. However, she soon realizes that changing the past isn't as simple as it seems, and definitely has unintended consequences.

Story

Ginga is a simple—yet energetic—country girl, living with her father far from the capital city of the empire in ancient China. When she learns of an opportunity to become a concubine of the young new Emperor, with the possibility of becoming his head wife in charge of all of the other wives, Ginga convinces her father to let her go. Once there, she meets all of the other potential head wives, each of whom have various reasons for being there. All of them must learn to read and write, learn the history of their country, and learn the proper mannerisms for being in the royal court.

Ginga's enthusiasm tends to get her in trouble more often than not, but it works to her advantage when they learn that the former emperor's head wife, who is not the mother of the current emperor, is plotting treachery against the new emperor, and that a rebellion is headed toward the capital.
