Market is boring. Got a PM for questions, looks he/she is bit frustrated
with the trading. Here is my reply, guess it might be helpful for all of us
to rethink these basic questions:

==============

besides your transactions, I might ask your below questions:

1. how import is the money you put in the market? can you afford to lose
them
all? or what is your bottomline lose (i.e the point you can't take further
loss and need to out).

2. what is your goal for your investment? and is there any time frame to
achieve that?

3. how much time you can spend on the stock market?

4. what is your trading style and personal character, do you like gamble and
excting? or your prefer sitting and waiting game? etc.

5. do you have any family pressure, like your wife/husband check your
performance quite often? :-)
