6. Never give advice-the smart don't need it and the stupid don't heed it.
7. Disregard all prognostications. In the world of money, which is a world shaped by human behavior, nobody has the foggiest notion of what will happen in the future. Mark that word-nobody!

8. Worry is not a sickness but a sign of health. If you are not worried, you are not risking enough.
9. Except in unusual circumstances, get in the habit of taking your profit too soon. Don't torment yourself if a trade continues winning without you. Chances are it won't continue long.
