Comments from best trader in the Bay Street to be a trader. Intersting do you find similarity of gorden gekko (Wall Street ) in this one.

"Trading is 40% art, 40% science and 20% luck. To be a good trader, you have to be lucky, but to be lucky you have to be good. You wake up early, you do your routine—going to the gym, or whatever you do that gets you going in the morning, that inspires you in the morning—and you come into work charged up, you're ready to go, so you put yourself in the right place. Therefore you're lucky. It's like being in the right place at the right time. If you miss everything, you're never going to be lucky. Bad luck is never good. I tell my people bad luck is bad for me, just don't be unlucky. It's a bad career decision."
