I was quite the emotional investor when I was day trading. That is kinda a contradiction in terms, as day trading is more gambling than it is investing. Since then, I have picked a few stocks that look good on the books, appear to have good track records, and that seem as though the current socioeconomic and cultural trends will continue to support those companies. These days I do not watch my stocks everyday. I have confidence that in the long run they will win. Great article and very appropriate. I was quite the emotional investor when I was day trading.

I think you mean ” …you may want to rein in that risk …”

I think it's important to have a strategy written down and reviewed often so that if you stray to far off track you can always revisit and get back where you need to be. Betty, that’s a good point.
