Great thread - thanks. Ignore the flamers.

Comenow - I agree (obviously) that personality has a big effect on learning curve.

My girlfriend asked me: "If that [my refined system] is all you need to do, why doesnt everyone do it?". I replied: "How many people in Melbourne [or whereever you are] come home from work every night and program and test strategies, and read and read and read the old trading masters (like Justin Mamis), night after night, month after month, and refine and execute their trading system(s), because they love it so?". I would say maybe less than 1 in 10,000 do that almost every night, for years.
