Creating Your Trading Future

You are an entrepreneur; you run your trading business. Here are some questions that might help you focus your efforts:

* Are you creating a future for the business or are you mostly struggling to get by in the present? Specifically, how much time are you spending on research and development, building the tools for tomorrow's trading, and how much time are you spending watching markets and placing trades?

* Are you running the business in a way that would make you want to work for yourself as an employee? Leadership is as crucial in a one-person operation as in a large enterprise. How effective is your leadership of your trading business?

* Is your business really growing? Are you finding more opportunity now than in the past? Are you trading new markets and/or new strategies or are you stagnating? Would you choose to be an investor in your own business?

* Would you be proud to post your PnL and your trades every day? Suppose a film crew was filming you and your trading: would you want that film to be released? What would someone watching that film conclude about you?

Look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself the tough question:

Do I really want to be spending the next five years of my career doing what I'm doing now?

If you're on the right entrepreneurial path, the answer to that question is a no-brainer. If you're on the wrong path, the answer is difficult--but it's the first step toward defining your promising future. That can be very exciting.

Women and children overboard

It's the Catch-22 of clinical trials: to protect pregnant women and children from the risks of untested drugs....we don't test drugs adequately for them. In the last few decades , we've been more concerned about the harms of research than of inadequately tested treatments for everyone, in fact. But for "vulnerable populations," like pregnant women and children, the default was to exclude them. And just in case any women might be, or might become, pregnant, it was often easier just to exclude us all from trials. It got so bad, that by the late 1990s, the FDA realized regulations and more for pregnant women - and women generally - had to change. The NIH (National Institutes of Health) took action too. And so few drugs had enough safety and efficacy information for children that, even in official circles, children were being called "therapeutic orphans." Action began on that, too. There is still a long way to go. But this month there was a sign that

Not a word was spoken (but many were learned)

Video is often used in the EFL classroom for listening comprehension activities, facilitating discussions and, of course, language work. But how can you exploit silent films without any language in them? Since developing learners' linguistic resources should be our primary goal (well, at least the blogger behind the blog thinks so), here are four suggestions on how language (grammar and vocabulary) can be generated from silent clips. Split-viewing Split-viewing is an information gap activity where the class is split into groups with one group facing the screen and the other with their back to the screen. The ones facing the screen than report on what they have seen - this can be done WHILE as well as AFTER they watch. Alternatively, students who are not watching (the ones sitting with their backs to the screen) can be send out of the classroom and come up with a list of the questions to ask the 'watching group'. This works particularly well with action or crime scenes with
