最近正在读 Mark Minervini 的 'Trade Like a Stock Wizard'. 基本思想 和 William O'neal 的 CANSLIM 异曲同工。他的一些采访建议也很有启发性。在这里剪贴，和大家一起共勉。


Mark Minervini is one of America’s most successful stock traders; a veteran on Wall Street with nearly 30 years of experience. He won the 1997 U.S. Investing Championship with a 155% return and is featured in Jack Schwager’s Stock Market Wizards; Conversations with America’s Top Stock Traders. Using his SEPA® trading strategy, in a five-and-a-half-year period Minervini generated an average annual compound return of 220 per cent with only one losing quarter. To put that in perspective, a $100,000 account would explode to over $30 million with those returns. Minervini educates traders about his SEPA® methodology through Minervini Private Access at www.minervini.com.


TRADERS´: What does it really take to adapt and succeed in the very long run from your point of view?
Mark Minervini: It takes a good strategy, but even more importantly, it takes a commitment to that strategy. It also takes a willingness to objectively analyze and learn from your mistakes. When going into battle, you need to know and trust your sword. Knowing your strategy inside out is more important than having the “best” strategy.

另外的忠告。有的陈老师的书中提到。但是有一点挺好，就是我们不需要什么都懂，什么strategy都会。但是，我们会的，我们一定要相信，坚持并且精通。

Tim Bourquin:        All right. And then finally, Mark, what advice do you have for new traders that are just starting out here or are still looking for their SEPA, their way to trade? Any advice for them?

Mark Minervini:        Well, you need to find something that makes sense to you and something that matches your personality of course. Once you do find something that makes sense to you, you need to concentrate on mastering that and pretty much stick with that for a while. I mean maybe at some point you find out that's not for you and eventually you find what's for you, but you're never going to be good at anything if you don't give it enough time to become a master at it. You don't want to be a Jack-Of-All-Trades. Also, don't expect too much too fast. If you're new at it, it's going to take time. It takes a lot of time, but if you stick with it, the eventual payoff is well worth it. And you want to cut your losses. That's the number one rule is to cut your losses and to never ever average down. If the trade is going bad, don't keep adding to it. That may work occasionally, but when it doesn't work it's going to eventually blow up your entire account. Finally, you know, I would say spend a huge amount of time on conducting post analysis, looking at what you've done, what took place and looking for common denominators. Everybody's got common things that they do, good and bad. Find out what you're doing wrong over and over and then work out on fixing it.
