Name of Writer/Poster and Quote would be helpful. TIA

Men make plans............. and God just laughs !!

Or..... men make plans......... to do something and then go to the pub to plan it a bit more... and then forget all about it in the morning

here's a few old one's..

the market never lies

don't catch a falling knife

I measure what's going on, and I adapt to it. I try to get my ego out of the way. The market is smarter than I am so I bend.

From Alan S Farley's "The master swing trader":

".. always remember this valuable wisdom: attention to profit is a sign of trading immaturity, while attention to loss is a sign of trading experience".

Most of my 10 k came from MMC(US)& AIG(US) shorts. I hardly trade UK stocks because I end up losing. Those of you who trade UK stocks must be very good traders.
