sorry chief, you seem to have received some flak because of me, the thing is you read my post is isolation without the context hence didnt get the intended sarcasm/humour. in case you have read the tailing posts you'll know i dont have anything against limit orders and that , i place limit orders for my trades. this post was intended in a jocular dark humour line hence the way it was done.
I am a voracious reader and have read quite a lot of stuff and I have a little difference about the " look positive, think positive, say positive" agenda. while it is good to have a positive outlook in everything, i believe there should be a trace of fear / pessimism in your approach. this will help in damage control/ danger prevention when things start going bad. this is in my opinion an essential part of the human psyche of survival. There are hundreds of studies where companies who have been practicing this positive thinking stuff have had generally ended up ignoring or avoiding obvious mistakes which subsequently destroyed the companies, when a bit of caution and practical approach would have saved disaster.
while positivity works, caution is a saviour. i have spent my lifetime in sales and marketing and can relate to this behavioural psychology stuff though do not fully subscribe to it in total.
there was an article i had read. it was nice reading
