Comments from an Our Grads:
"Let me echo some of the comments made in class yesterday about live trading. Although I enthusiastically enrolled in this class without knowing about this added benefit, having met you folks at Anaheim in August and taking an earlier class, it would be hard to overstate the importance of the added value of the opportunity to do live trading in class. Many of us who have come this far understand--intellectually--the importance, even dominance, of the psychologic aspect of trading.
However no matter how well trained we think we may be, nothing prepares us for that initial confrontation with our emotions in the grip of actual market battle. It's not that real money is being used (it's not even my money). Rather it is the undeniably uncomfortable realization that I am exposing myself (and all that that means) to that vast, mentally uncharted territory called The Market. However the opportunity to do so with the protection and guidance, psychologic as well as financial, of professional traders, who are on my side, made the experience significantly less intimidating. It became exciting and fun, as well as educational; it was positively challenging instead of frustrating and confusing.
On a personal note: although I had never done any trading before, I realized some time ago that I would have difficulty with "pulling the trigger." By having now been able to do so in such a supportive environment, not only am I better able to understand and prepared to deal with any hesitancy; I am eagerly looking forward to immediately continuing my trading practice at home.
Thanks doesn't cover it. M." November 2, 2001
