It is a good idea to write down some background for each order。 My preferred format includes three lines: Weekly; Daily; and To Do。 For example:
为每笔交易写下背景也是个好主意。我最喜欢的格式包括3句话:每周,每日,要做的事。比如说:
Weekly: EMA rising; MACD…H ticked down; deteriorating
每周:均线向上,MACD柱向下,很不好
Daily: MACD…H bearish divergence; pullback to the EMA in progress
每日:MACD柱看跌背离,向均线回调
To Do: Sell short at 71。30 with a stop at 73; target mid…60s or
要做的事:在71。30做空,止损点设置在73,目标65左右,或者是
Weekly: EMA turning flat; MACD…H ticked up from a bullish divergence
每周:均线持平,MACD柱从看涨背离向上
Daily: EMA up; MACD…H rising; all in gear to the upside
每日:均线上涨,MACD柱上涨,2者都上涨
To Do: Buy on a pullback to the EMA at 23。25; stop 22; target high 20s
要做的事:回调到均线时在23。25买入,止损22,目标20多。
I keep these notes in an Excel spreadsheet。 It has a line for every stock that I track; with dates in vertical columns。 Whenever I see a trade; I click on the cell for that date and stock; go to the Insert menu; and select ment。 Once I’ve written my three…line note; a tiny red triangle appears in the right upper corner of the cell。 Whenever you move your cursor over it; the ment pops up on the screen。 This record…keeping system makes it easy to sweep horizontally and review your entire analytic history of a stock or sweep vertically and review all your ments for that day。 I keep my records for the ABC rating system; described below; in the same spreadsheet。
我用Excel电子表格做这些记录。每个股票都会做,日期在列里面。不管什么时候我要看,我点击那个表格日期和股票,再点下拉菜单,选择评论。一旦我写好了3句话的注释,一个红色的三角就会出现在表格的右上角。当你移动鼠标时,这个评论就会弹出来。这种纪录的方式让你很容易地看见你分析过的所有股票,或者从列里面看见你所有的评论。我用ABC评论方式在表格的下面打分。
Remember to keep your notes descriptive。 If you write something like “weekly charts give a buy signal;” that does not tell you anything specific about a stock and will be useless when you look at it a few days later。 Begin by describing what you see on the weekly charts; move on to the dailies; and only after that write down your trading ideas on the action line。
记住,你的记录要明确。如果你写的内容是“周线出现买入信号”,这并不能告诉你要买哪个股票,几天后再看可能就忘了。要说明你在周线上看见了什么,每天坚持,在交易计划里也要写上你的想法。
Keeping an action plan increases your load of paperwork; but it makes trading more businesslike and less like a swing through a casino。 This reminds me of the time I took a group of mostly American traders for a mock trading session on the floor of the Russian Exchange in Moscow。 Each person was assigned an interpreter and given a paper bankroll。 Everybody had a grand time; trading and taking pictures; except for a lone Dutchman in our group。 That market maker from Amsterdam kept furiously scribbling on the back of an envelope as he watched prices on the display panel above the floor。 When the session ended and we moved on to the executive dining room; they brought us printouts with our results。 It turned out that the group as a whole lost a million rubles。 The Dutchman made a little over 900;000 rubles; while the rest went up in slippage and missions … a pretty mon oute。 Good records help create good traders; which is why I encourage you to invest time and energy in keeping and following your action plan。
写交易计划确实加重了你的工作量,但会让你的交易更像生意,而不是像赌博一样。这让我想起了在莫斯科俄罗斯交易大会上教美国交易者模拟交易的事。每个人都配了一个翻译,手上拿着钞票。我们组里每人都有很多时间,交易,画图都行,只有一个荷兰人不同。这个来自阿姆斯特丹的做市商只要一看见显示屏报价就在信封上快速写着什么。当活动结束后,我们都去了餐厅,他们把结果打印给我。我发现整组亏了100万卢布。那个荷兰人则赚了900000多卢布,其他人都是因为滑点亏损和佣金亏损的——普遍的结果。好的交易记录帮助产生好的交易者,这就是我让你花时间和精力做你的交易计划的原因。
CHAPTER NINE TRADING FOR A LIVING
第09章 以交易为生
Trading attracts us with its promise of freedom。 If you can trade; you can live and work anywhere in the world; be independent from the routine; and not answer to anybody。 You can trade from a beach bungalow or a mountaintop chalet; as long as you have a good Internet connection。 You have no boss; no customers; no alarm clock。 You are your own person。
交易吸引我们是因为它承诺可以自由。如果你能交易,你可以在任何地方生活和工作,没有例行事物,不用理会任何人。只要你有互联网连接,你可以在海边小屋交易,或在山顶木屋交易。你没有老板,没有客户,没有闹钟。你就是你自己。
People pay lip service to their dreams of freedom; but many feel frightened by it。 If I stop making money for any reason whatsoever; no corporate parent will take care of me。 This a frightening thought for most people。 No wonder so many of us have grown used to the security of our corporate cages。
人们为了实现自由,花钱被骗,但也有很多人害怕。如果我不再赚钱,就再也没有公司照顾我了。这是大多数人和恐怖的想法。难怪有这么多人喜欢公司牢笼带来的安全感。
Caged animals develop all sorts of neurotic behaviors。 A mon neurosis is an addiction to the earn…and…spend cycle。 We are taught since childhood that our place in society is defined by what we consume。 If you drive a 50;000 car; you are a better; more successful person than someone who drives a 15;000 auto; whereas a neighbor who drives a 120;000 car is a very special winner altogether。 The man who dresses at an Armani boutique is a more refined individual than someone who buys his pants and shirts at the corner store。 Society waves countless carrots in our faces。 The ads sell not food; shelter; or transportation; but a boost of self…esteem。 An addict feels revived by a fix for only a short time。 People spend their entire lives straining to keep up with the Joneses。 Those dastardly Joneses do not have the decency to stay in place; and as they climb the ladder; we must climb also。
被笼养的动物形成了各种神经质行为。常见的神经质行为就是赚到再花掉。我们从小就被教育说我们的社会地位取决与我们消费的水平。如果你开50000元的小轿车,你还可以,比开15000元车的人要成功,然而一个开120000元车的邻居就是特别的赢家了。一个在阿玛尼服装店买衣服的男士要比在街角商店买衣服的人要举止优雅。社会用很多方法迷惑我们。广告不卖食品,保障物或交通,卖的是自我崇拜。为此上瘾的人只能得到短暂的满足。人们用了一生的时间努力活得体面。这些人为了保持体面,就要往上爬,我们也必须往上爬。
Freedom begins in our minds; not in our bank accounts。 To liberate yourself; start being conscious of your spending。 You are likely to see that you need much less than you thought; making freedom that much closer。
自由开始于我们的思想,不是银行账号。要想解放自己,开始要了解自己的消费。你会明白你需要的比你想的要少,实现自由要容易些。
There was a Wall Street analyst by the name of Joe Dominguez who saved enough money to retire at 31。 He spent the rest of his life enjoying himself; doing volunteer work; and writing a book called Your Money or Your Life。
有个华尔街分析师叫乔·多明戈斯,他存了足够的钱,在31岁退休。然后他开始享受自己,做义工,写了一本书《你的钱或你的生活》。
We aren’t making a living; we are making a dying。 Consider the average American worker。 The alarm rings at 6:45 and our working man or woman is up and running。 Shower。 Dress in the professional uniform … suits or dresses for some; overalls for others; whites for the medical professionals; jeans and flannel shirts for construction workers。 Breakfast; if there’s time。 Grab muter mug and briefcase (or lunch box) and hop in the car for the daily punishment called rush hour。 On the job from nine to five。 Deal with the boss。 Deal with the coworker sent by the devil to rub you the wrong way。 Deal with suppliers。 Deal with clients/customers/patients。 Act busy。 Hide mistakes。 Smile when handed impossible deadlines。 Give a sigh of relief when the ax known as ‘restructuring’ or ‘downsizing’ … or just plain getting laid off … falls on other heads。 Shoulder the added workload。 Watch the clock。 Argue with your conscience but agree with the boss。 Smile again。 Five o’clock。 Back in the car and onto the freeway for the evening mute。 Home。 Act human with mates; kids or roommates。 Eat。 Watch TV。 Bed。 Eight hours of blessed oblivion。
我们不是在生活,我们是在死亡。想想美国的普通工人吧。闹钟在6:45分响,我们的男工或女工开始起床,奔跑。沐浴。穿上职业服装——为别人穿衣服,白色为医生,牛仔和绒布衣服为建筑工人。如果有时间就吃早餐。抓起工作时用的大杯子和箱子(或是午餐盒),上车接受每天的惩罚,叫上下班交通高峰期。从9点到5点工作。和老板交涉。和魔鬼派来的可恶同事交涉。和供应商交涉。和客户/客人/病人交涉。很忙。隐藏错误。当有无法完成的任务派下来时苦笑。当知道所谓的精简,裁员发生在别人头上时,终于松了一口气。对加班无可奈何。看着钟。没有良心地争吵,但完全同意老板的。再笑笑。5点了。回到车上开始回家了。到家了。和家人,小孩或一个宿舍的人像人一样交流。吃饭。看电视。上床。8小时幸运地被遗忘。
And they call this making a living? Think about it。 How many people have you seen who are more alive at the end of the work day than they were at the beginning? 。 。 。 Aren’t we killing ourselves … our health; our relationships; our sense of joy and wonder … for our jobs? We are sacrificing our lives for money … but it’s happening so slowly that we barely notice。
他们说这就是生活�
