On Being Patience
"It is never your thinking that make big money, it's the sitting."
Jesse L. Livermore

"When I see a danger signal handed to me, I don't argue with it. I get out! A few days later, if everything looks all right, I can always go back in again, thereby I have saved myself a lot of worry and money. I figure it out this way. If I were walking along a railroad track and saw an express train coming at me at sixty miles an hour, I would not be damned fool enough not to get off the track and let the train go by."
Jesse L. Livermore
"Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."
On Market Timing
"The variables you use to define your edge have to be absolutely precise. The system has to be designed so that it does not require you to make any subjective decisions or judgment about whether your edge is present. If the market is aligned in a way that conforms with the rigid variables of your system, then you have a trade; if not, then you don't have a trade. Period!"
Mark Douglas
John Maynard Keynes
"The market will fluctuate."
John Pierpont Morgan
"There are times when one should speculate, and just as surely there are times when one should not speculate. There is a very true adage: "You can beat horse race, but you can't beat the races." So it is with market operations."
Jesse L. Livermore
"In this game, the market has to keep pitching, but you don't have to swing. You can stand there with the bat on your shoulder until you get a fat pitch."
Warren Buffett
On Trading the News
"Be very careful of what you learn from the media, any major announcements are perfect timings for the smart money in a ready stance to liquidate their prior positions."

"News magazine like Time, Newsweek, Business Week and Fortune can also provide useful contrary insights when they quote the opinions of presumed financial authorities. In particular, cover stories in these magazines often signal that a trend of intermediate-term or even long-term importance has gone to an unsustainable extreme."
Richard E. Band Contrary Investing for the 90's
