The Mind of a Trader

I am thinking of putting my personal stories, along with advanced technicals, into my next book. The relevance is what comprises the mind of a money market trader. If you disagree, then I won't continue. Feedback, please, and here's a sample:

DADDY IN THE SLAMMER
Lenny Jordan <lennyjordan1@gmail.com>
May 13 (1 day ago)
   
Ok, I admit it. I spent one night in the slammer. I was on my motorcycle during college, and I crossed a traffic violation, a double yellow line,

It was after a few tacos and a few beers, and I wasn't feeling law obliging. There was an open road with no traffic, so I gunned it. It was up in Highwood, a mafia town, near my college, LFC.

The cop was waiting for me in the dark. Next thing you know there was a siren and flashing lights. I could have out run him, but I figured he had my licence plate.

I pulled over. He wanted fifty bucks. I said, 'I don't have it.'

He then 'escorted' me to the slammer, where I spent the night on a cold hard bed.

Next morning, my pals put fifty bucks to together to bail me out.

Two weeks later I showed up at Cook County Court where the judge told the cop off, and then gave me a twenty dollar ($20) refund.

All true!  Regards, LJ

Advice to a Finance Student

Here's my advice to a young finance student who contacted me from Nairobi, and who wants to learn how to trade the money markets:

Advice: trade the markets. Put capital at risk, no matter how small. Feel the profits and losses in your gut. Lose sleep. Analyse your trades. Don't risk more than 10% of your capital on any one trade. Live cheap. Work with a senior trader, even if he treats you like rubbish. Learn technical analysis. Stay away from the sharks, like the guy you just mentioned. They just want commissions. 

 And don't get married until you can afford divorce:) Regards, LJ
