I would like to discuss here an issue of trading metaphors, as I think it shapes our mind during trading. My own metaphor is scalping=wind surfing.

As somebody already talked about it, see a thread:


Please post your metaphors.

I think everything is a metaphor for everything else. Golf, baseball, performing music, creating art, skateboarding, weightlifting, managing a marriage or other relationship, managing a good life... I think, in most cases, trading will help with all those other things more than those other things will help with trading... at least that's how it seems with me...

Trading is a mugs game, but only if you are a mug!
