The best traders I find were guys that like to think with thought more in two dimensions.

So if you thought in three dimensions, you could outsmart yourself way too much.

The what ifs and oh but.

And if you're in one dimension, you're just not at the IQ level to function.

So the two dimension that kind of...

Took the factors at play, saw what the trend was, took it at face value, didn't overthink it, went with it, and had enough risk appetite but wasn't too much of a cowboy, I guess, would be the perfect trader that I saw.

Yes.

The worst traders I saw were oftentimes the smartest people.

Really?

Yeah.

You just overthink your way.

You overtrade it.

You overthink it.

You're always looking at the, you're always looking at, oh, but this and that, and I have all this information.

You're either analysis paralysis and or talking yourself out of a good trade.

Um,

We were egregiously over-regulated from all sides.

I don't think so.

Let me just say that.

I mean, there's obviously a lot of unintended consequences from the excess regulation, but it's funny.
