Creating a positive and supportive work environment is a key to success.
In the face of the daily battle for investment survival, the emotional and physical challenges of trading, the more support you get the better.
Going it alone is a fool’s games. At the end of the first decade of the new century it should be perfectly clear that “discount– no frills– DIY (Do-It-Yourself) investing / trading are going the way of the “Dinosaur” In today’s market place you need to create the winning environment with a team effort. If you have not figured this one out yet, your a steak dinner to the smart money.
A big part of our job is listening and understanding. An orchestra can’t make beautiful music unless the musicians are listening and understanding each other. Otherwise you sound like a one man band.
Listen here to get an idea of what it may sound like. Did you ever consider what being a DIY trader looks and sounds like this to a professional! How about a steak dinner!
In 1981 I saw the likes of Charles Swab and others deep discounters as only benefiting an industry by providing it with the liquidity from the public for the big pl
ayers to cash out on. The misinformation the industry propagated about the “buy and hold” long term nature of stocks has brought the capital markets to its worse shape since the great depression. For two decades they were right: buy and hold worked. Not today, if this was the equity curve of a trading system or strategy would you invest in it? That tells the story of why buying and holding stocks over the next 10 years without timing and management is likely to be doom. But that is not the complete picture as we do mean for the next 10 years.
The notion of buy and hold stocks is cyclical and stops working after 20 years and falls into disrepute for 20 years. It is during this cycle that market timing and active management come into popularity. As you can see by the long-term chart we display here that we 
have just entered a period were the equity capital markets need to be timed and managed in order to succeed as opposed to the brainless buy and forget. So while everyone else is looking for the mythical smooth equity curve before they invest, we will use a better approach and buy low to sell high.
The complete notion of DIY — to do little for little cost in order to make above average returns does not even sound like the free market capitalism that I learned about in school and that I compete in every day of my adult life! It’s like someone getting in shape without doing any exercise, it just does not work.
