The psychological wear and tear of making decisions to get in or out harms an investors confidence and leads to performance chasing or sitting on the sidelines. It is extremely stressful and damaging longer term.best way to trade stockshttp://www.colmexpro.com/about/Colmex-Pro-Tradernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559710283964047904.post-44193475165473389982011-12-30T23:58:31.706-08:002011-12-30T23:58:31.706-08:00In a low-tone comment, or rather association to La...In a low-tone comment, or rather association to Larry's post, I would remind that the early Freud, in fact, Breuer already, spoke of the Pleasure Principle as truly the "reduction" of tension: pleasure is merely, somewhat physiologically, the reduction of unpleasure, or of tension at all.<br />As for Daniel Kanhneman's comment (not based at all on the fact he was my teacher in Experimental Psychology, many years ago, at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem) I see it much more as a critique of rationality, than as a critique of psychoanalysis. <br />I remember the old book by Irving Zeitlin on the development of Sociological thought (http://books.google.co.il/books/about/Ideology_and_the_development_of_sociolog.html?id=X7m4AAAAIAAJ&redir_esc=y) whose main claim was that any and every sociologist in fact conducts a kind of critical dialogue with Karl Marx. <br />Clearly enough, Kahnheman is NOT interested in psychoanalysis....and his Nobel Price was in Ecaonomics, again, as a critique of rational model of economics thinking. <br />BTW, about loss, Kahneman always reminds his former colleague and friend from the Hebrew University, Amos Tversky, who died too young, and who developed, along with him, this peculiar brand of research.andrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11692050356309005763noreply@blogger.com
