Saint, got your point,
shall desist from posting any deviating trades here!!!
Thanx for pointing it out!!!
But Saint, Beware that I shall surely post here to pester you as in the past, in case some trade levels or Sl levels posted here are not understood by me and feel are not as per the rules understood by me!!!
I had specifically posted that it is a deviation of rules.... so there should not have been any confusion!!
And I am thankful that you did not take my posts as to belittle you!!! Its beyond imagination that i should even think of 'one upmanship over Saint'!!!
Yes, some portion of the Post above by you would have hurt me had it been from someone other than you!!! Just becoz i know you , I understand that all has been written by you with the view to keep the interest of all in mind, for the general good at heart as always!!!!
So
Your advise taken and assure you no feelings hurt!!! Thanx again Saint!!!

R K Karnani,
I believe it's neither about confusion nor rule deviation.
As taught by Saint, keeping the "I" factor out of one's mind is same as learning to deal with emotions like fear and greed, both of which lead to severe financial/personal punishment at the end of the day.
I'd b a pretender if I said there is no anxiety on gap up days, seeing my position deep in the money but not fighting back the urge to take my money and run. That's part of human nature and cannot be denied it's place.
The converse being true on gap down mornings, running deep loss, yet praying fervently for a reversal without an action plan.
So there are well tried and tested rules that equip us with the fight back when the markets get challenging. I'm sure you'll agree that since trading these rules one sleeps well, without anxiety of what the morning will bring, nor sitting up late night watching how the Dow is doing.
No, I don't believe you caused confusion. From what I can see most everyone here by now knows what they are doing.
But as learners, or re-leaners struggling to kick bad habits, you may have inadvertently touched some old scars caused by not trading a determind plan and surrendering to a bad habit.
It's like blowing smoke at someone agonising over kicking smoking. It's disruptive.
Having done so, don't be too burdened by it. That's what the market does, just when you think it's all sitting pretty. A few days ago another senior at the forum did the same.
This is learning still, and what's important is to learn to protect ourselves from the self, rather than the market.
I've been seeing your posts regularly, and there's lots of spirit there. Keep going.
And then, of course, Saint's around. Furthermore, he's gentle, and Czar would affirm that, I wager.
Amit.
