Simms-

So how may we less accomplished traders gleen any pearls of wisdom about
their trading
techniques or methods?  Are they willing to share anything about their
trading systems?  I can see
why this may not be the case with the hedge fund manager guy.  I can also
understand what you state about not having an ego; so I was wondering why
does the other guy have a chat group?
