And now for something completely different...

Okay, seriously now, is there a Holy Grail, or isn't there?

(he asked rhetorically as a preface to answering his own
question, compelled to do so by his massive ego)

If we're talking about the "real" Holy Grail, we're talking about
a myth.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_Grail

"In Christian mythology, the Holy Grail was the dish, plate or cup, a vessel that caught Jesus' blood during his crucifixion. It was said to have the power to heal all wounds. A theme joined to the Christianised Arthurian mythos relates to the quest for the Holy Grail..."

We all define the Holy Grail of trading for ourselves, I guess.
Most of us would probably say something like, "Whatever it is, it
would make me very wealthy, very fast."

Great. If that happened to you, you'd have a whole NEW set of
problems. You'd probably come down with a nasty case of
sudden wealth syndrome.

Most people would say, "Well, I'd sure like a chance to find out
if I'd suffer from sudden wealth!", and there's the famous
Mae West quote:
"I've been rich and I've been poor... Believe me, rich is better"

Most everyone here is seeking some method to accumulate
wealth rapidly. If we aren't, why would we bother with trading?

When we find trading methods that work, and can settle into
them and stop desperately searching -- and this will be something
different for each trader -- maybe THIS is each trader's personal
Holy Grail.
