               A WINNING ATTITUDE

               Everyone wants to be a winner; at least, they think so. Unfortunately, most are not willing to
               perform the tasks necessary to become a consistent winner. Winners generally achieve success
               by being focused on a goal. Being focused allows winners to remain committed to the tasks at
               hand. Most winners perform a lot of hard work; including a willingness to deal with sometimes
               mundane duties. Most of all, winners perform with an "I am responsible for both my failures and
               successes" attitude.

               So, where does the would-be trader start to become a success? By focusing on the tasks at hand.
               Most of all, treat trading as a business. And, as in any business, money management is critical.

               Money management, next to trend, is probably the aspect of trading most overlooked by smaller
               investors.  Man,  by  nature,  is  an  optimistic  creature  and  the  amateur  trader  often  acts
               instinctively. Unfortunately, this instinct or optimism is often the undoing of the smaller trader.
               When a person enters a trade, he does so with the hope it will be a winner. When the position
               goes against him, he keeps thinking (or hoping) "it will come back." He knows he should have a
               stop in place, but hope keeps telling him to stay just a little longer since everybody knows "you
               always  get  stopped  out  the  day  the  market  turns."  Eventually,  hope  turns  into  frustration,
               desperation and, finally, panic, prompting the trader to issue a GMO (get me out) order.
               If  the  trader hasn't  learned his  lesson  by  this  point,  he  develops  the  "I  have  to  get  it back"
               syndrome. He generally rushes into another poorly planned trade, throwing good money after
               bad.

               Winners  show  several  different  characteristics.  They  enter  the  market  knowing  they  can  be
               wrong and, in fact, are wrong as often as they are right. They have learned markets don't run on
               hope. They understand markets tell them when they are right or wrong. When a trade is losing
               money and getting worse, the market is telling them to get out. A bad trade is like a dead fish:
               The longer you keep it, the worse it smells.
