Just had an epiphany today as I was just driving around getting some errands done. Rules on the road are to keep people safe from getting in a wreck! Same with stocks; rules are to keep the road of our accounts safe. We can either choose to follow the, or we can be a rule-breaker and either risk getting in a wreck or get in an actual wreck! The only risk we want to take with our account is controlled risk--left without rules and we could risk getting in a wreck that might seem irrecoverable as far as damage to property and people! Follow the rules to the road of success!
