The Courage of (Forex) Pigs

by Walter May 26, 2011 0 comment

In the excellent trading classic, The New Market Wizards written by Jack Schwagger, Stanley Druckenmiller is interviewed. Stanley mentions that he traded with George Soros, in fact, it was Stanley and Soros who were famously credited with breaking the Bank of England, but that is another story.

Druckenmiller credits Soros for teaching him to “go for the jugular.” Druckenmiller also mentions that Soros taught him that it “takes courage to be a pig.” But what does this mean? What does a forex pig do? Druckenmiller learned that it is important to really pile it on when you are right.

Forex pip pigs make pips when the pips are coming their way.

It takes great courage to be a forex pip pig.

After all, we forex traders make money when we take a winning trade, right? So why not make sure that our winning trades are weighted more heavily than our losing trades. I wrote an article about this concept, if you would like to read more, feel free to read the article at Trading Markets here

How far back should I start from? As a youngin', I used to go to birthdays, just about every weekend as a magician. This went on for about 11 years, then I retired from magic at age 21. I became a Psychologist and helped insurance companies choose the jury for high stakes cases. That was interesting, but not so much fun. Then I found forex. This is fun. I would be happy to show you how I trade for a living. Spend time on this forum, there is a wealth of information here for you. I am here to help as well as many of my trading buddies from around the globe. Happy Trading! Trading, talking about trading, traveling and surfing!
