In the space between heart beats, and the pauses between musical notes, does the truth break through and give you a fleeting glimpse of the answers you seek. Keeping your mind closed, and in constant "logical analytical mode" puts blinders on you and you miss 10x more than you would have if you were to just sit back, and brain storm 10 insane hypothesis about how X can affect Y stock, then prove or disprove it.

You'll hit one in 100 at first, then 1 in 50, and maybe if you're good 1 in 10. Hitting only 1 in 100 but being calm and playing YOUR game at ALL TIMES keeps you in the black. Like Nick Saban. If I make 400% on a Call and gain $5,000. So fucking what? I'm not going to trade another option for a week or two at least anyway. I play my game, my way, and with the strategy I employ, I'll never ever have a -98% portfolio value. I'm positive, on average, 47% on all options trades that went my way. I make money on 3 of every 7 options trades. Total value outlaid never exceeds 15% of my portfolio, and if that dries up, I save up and go again. I don't dip into my big boy fund.

I use that shit to pay off people to get insider info you idiots. /s
