some Trading Quotes from notable investors


"The most important thing in making money is not letting your losses get out of hand."

Marty Schwartz



"I always define my risk, and I don't have to worry about it."

Tony Saliba



"The key to trading success is emotional discipline. If intelligence were the key, there would be a lot more people making money trading... I know this will sound like a cliche, but the single most important reason that people lose money in the financial markets is that they don't cut their losses short."

Victor Sperandeo



"I think investment psychology is by far the more important element, followed by risk control, with the least important consideration being the question of where you buy and sell."

Tom Basso



"If I have positions going against me, I get right out; if they are going for me, I keep them... Risk control is the most important thing in trading. If you have a losing position that is making you uncomfortable, the solution is very simple: Get out, because you can always get back in."

Paul Tudor Jones



"The elements of good trading are: (1) cutting losses, (2) cutting losses, and (3) cutting losses. If you can follow these three rules, you may have a chance."

Ed Seykota



"When I get hurt in the market, I get the hell out. It doesn't matter at all where the market is trading. I just get out, because I believe that once you're hurt in the market, your decisions are going to be far less objective than they are when you're doing well... If you stick around when the market is severely against you, sooner or later they are going to carry you out."

Randy McKay



"I'll keep reducing my trading size as long as I'm losing... My money management techniques are extremely conservative. I never risk anything approaching the total amount of money in my account, let alone my total funds."

Randy McKay



"The fundamental law of investing is the uncertainty of the future."

Peter Bernstein



"There is the plain fool who does the wrong thing at all times anywhere, but there is the Wall Street fool who thinks he must trade all the time."

Jesse Livermore



"One common adage...that is completely wrongheaded is: You can't go broke taking profits. That's precisely how many traders do go broke. While amateurs go broke by taking large losses, professionals go broke by taking small profits."

William Eckhardt

A trader listened to the firm's "chief" economist's predictions about gold, then lost a bundle. The trader was asked to leave the firm. He then angrily asked him boss who was firing him: "Why do you fire me alone not the economist? He is too responsible for the loss." The Boss: "You i-diot, we are not firing you for losing money; we are firing you for listening to the economist."

Verapamil is a calcium channel blocker used to treat hypertension, irregular heartbeats and some sorts of headaches. It has been approved for some of these purposes for over 30 years.

Verapamil has dangerous interactions with some other drugs. However, while side-effects such as nausea and swollen feet may be unpleasant, the dangers are seldom life threatening, and generally a better alternative to having diabetes. Such a history of long-term usage should shorten the clinical trial process and improve the chances of gaining regulatory approval.

The potential application to diabetes arises from the discovery by Dr. Anath Shalev of the University of Alabama, Birmingham (UAB) that verapamil lowers the level of the protein TXNIP in pancreatic beta cells.

Back in 2002, Shalev, then at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, began a search to find the gene that responded most strongly in the pancreas to excessive glucose levels. This turned out to be the TXNIP gene. Moreover, TXNIP's full name is thioredoxin-interacting protein; high levels of thioredoxin have been shown to keep the pancreas' insulin-producing islet beta cells alive.

Shalev began to suspect TXNIP suppression might be the key to fighting diabetes, and subsequent tests in rats, mice and islets isolated from humans have lent weight to her theory.

“We have previously shown that verapamil can prevent diabetes and even reverse the disease in mouse models and reduce TXNIP in human islet beta cells, suggesting that it may have beneficial effects in humans as well," Shalev said, announcing plans for the clinical trials.

Most recently, Shalev revealed that TXNIP can stimulate its own expression. "These findings support the notion,” Shaleve wrote, “that TXNIP levels rise over time, not only as a result of elevated blood glucose levels and/or endoplasmic reticulum stress, but also as part of a vicious cycle by which increased TXNIP levels lead to more TXNIP expression and thereby amplify the associated detrimental effects on beta-cell biology including oxidative stress, inflammation, and ultimately beta-cell death and disease progression.”

The JDRF funded trial will involve 52 newly diagnosed patients with diabetes, half of whom will be put on verapamil and half on a placebo. All patients will continue to receive insulin pump therapy. “That is a proof-of-concept that, by lowering TXNIP, even in the context of the worst diabetes, we have beneficial effects,” says Shalev. “And all of this addresses the main underlying cause of the disease — beta cell loss. Our current approach attempts to target this loss by promoting the patient’s own beta cell mass and insulin production. There is currently no treatment available that targets diabetes in this way.”

Meanwhile Shalev is starting work on producing molecules with more targeted and efficient versions of verapamil's effect on TXNIP.

Pope Francis has reiterated that the Catholic Church sees no conflict between science and religion, accepting the universe was created in the Big Bang, rather than insisting on a literal interpretation of the book of Genesis.

The position is not new. More conservative Popes have, in recent decades, endorsed scientific ideas that are anathema to fundamentalist Christians, particularly that humans descended from other species. However, since the first acknowledgment of this possibility the Church's position has, shall we say, evolved significantly.

https://www.iflscience.com/sites/www.iflscience.com/files/styles/ifls_large/public/blog/%5Bnid%5D/1024px-Pope_Francis_among_the_people_at_St._Peter%27s_Square_-_12_May_2013.jpg

The Vatican is remembered for burning Giordano Bruno at the stake for postulating the existence of many worlds, and forcing Galileo to recant his views under threat of torture. In recent times, however, Christian attacks on science have been more likely to come from Evangelical Protestants.

Nevertheless, when Pope Pius XII first acknowledged the possibility of evolution in 1950 his position was extremely grudging. His encyclical Humani Generis reads, "Some imprudently and indiscreetly hold that evolution, which has not been fully proved even in the domain of natural sciences, explains the origin of all things, and audaciously support the monistic and pantheistic opinion that the world is in continual evolution.” Hardly a glowing endorsement of what was by then overwhelming scientific evidence.

By the time Pope John Paul II addressed the topic, there had been a shift. In 1996, the then Pope said, “This theory [evolution] has been progressively accepted by researchers, following a series of discoveries in various fields of knowledge. The convergence, neither sought nor fabricated, of the results of work that was conducted independently is in itself a significant argument in favour of this theory."

Now, as part of a wider move to pull the Church into the 21st Century while also restoring its prouder traditions, Pope Francis has used language that carries the message more clearly still.

“When we read the creation story in Genesis we run the risk of imagining that God was a magician, with a magic wand which is able to do everything,” Pope Francis said. “But it is not so. He created beings and let them develop according to internal laws which He gave every one, so they would develop, so they would reach maturity.”

The Pontifical Academy of Sciences is a Vatican body designed to promote the mathematical and physical sciences. Among the nearly 50 Nobel Prize winners who have been members are such giants as Rutherford, Plank and Bohr .

Addressing the Academy on Tuesday, Pope Francis said, “Evolution of nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation because evolution presupposes the creation of beings which evolve." Cosmologists, still wrestling with the question of what brought the universe into existence, might question his statement, “The big bang, which is today posited as the origin of the world, does not contradict the divine act of creation; rather, it requires it.” On the other hand, it is also not something that can currently be disproved.
