At least half.
You have been more successful than most traders. What do you attribute your success to?
The reason I have been so consistent is that I'm a great listener. I probably talk to about twenty-five traders
each day. Most traders don't listen to your opinion; they only want to tell you their opinion. I am different because I
honestly and truly listen to what they say and how they say it. For example, if one of the major locals calls me up
three days in a row when the market has rallied, and he is asking me what I think, I know that he has been selling
and is not sure of his position.
What does that tell you?
If it is in line with what the other traders I talk to are doing, it tells me the market will probably go higher.
So if you talk to twenty-five people, and twenty of them are nervous about the market going
higher because implicitly they are short, does that tell you that you should be trading on the long side?
Yes. I know a large number of people in the industry and that is a big plus. I listen to them. I go with the
people who are hot. Sure, I can form my own opinion, but that is not what makes me do the things I do in the
market. Sometimes, Iknow my opinion is right, and I'll go with it. Sometimes, I know somebody else is hot, and I'll
go with their opinion. I'm not picky about how I make my money. It doesn't matter if my opinion is right or wrong. All
that matters is whether I make money.
