Has anyone tried it out in practice?

 

Jjj: I used to love playing calculator when I was a kid, more than Tetris. You can make up so many games with a calculator! Only someone with a poor imagination can't play a calculator.
Mmm: ... only a man with a poor imagination can't watch a fan!

 
Murphy's Laws for the Market:

To learn from your mistakes, you must realise that you are making mistakes.
If you happily open a trade expecting a profit, you are likely to make a loss.
If you're looking forward to a good day, you will most likely miss it.
The worst thing happens when you expect the best, or are absolutely sure of the deal.
It will take you longer than you think to become a good trader.
If a BLEEP happens and you don't set a stop loss, get ready for a margin call.
Any failure looks brilliant in the beginning.
If your trade is going badly, it will get even worse in the near future.
If your trade is going very well and you are jumping for joy, get ready for a big drawdown.
If you think your trading is about to get better, you are probably just imagining it.
Any bad trade, left to itself without a stop, tends to develop into a margin call.
If you are an elliot wave specialist, get ready for a margin call.
If you quit your job to make money in the stock market, you will most likely have to look for a job again.
Hope dies last along with the deposit.
What seems obvious will probably not happen.
If it looks like it will happen this time, get ready for a margin call.
If something goes wrong, it will only get worse.
If you think a reversal is coming, it's more likely that price will continue to move where it has been moving.
A reversal happens unexpectedly and you probably won't take part in it.
If you think you are smarter than others and therefore will make money, get ready for a margin call.
If you have found a new trading system, you will soon have to find another system.
If you think you won't break any more discipline, you only think you will.
 
The presidents of France, the United States and Russia meet.
Sarkozy:
- We have salary of 8000 Euro per month, taxes, this and that, we get 7500
euros. We need 3,000 euros for living expenses. Where do they spend the other 4,500, I don't know!
Obama:
- We have a salary of 10000 dollars a month, taxes, so and so, we get 8500 dollars. We need 4,000 to live on. Where the hell do they spend the rest 4500 dollars!
Medvedev:
- Our salary is 8000 roubles a month, taxes and so on.
6,500 rubles. They have to spend 10,000 to live. Where the hell do they get the other 3,500 from?
