Nice idea (your thread).

But it’d be quicker to just post links to, say, 95% of posts within. say, the last 24 hours (no need to go back further than that). LOL!!!.

Yup it’s Buy the F-ing Dip. I’ve been spending some time on Twitter and have been seeing that a lot. Sounds like the quickest way for people to hold on to losing trades if you ask me.

My personal favourite is not strictly a trading quote:

Talk’s cheap, money buys houses.

It was a mantra I grew up listening to and basically means less talk, more action!

Trading is not gambling.
