    “LYLA-LYPR is ‘limit your losses and let your profits run.’ Basically, it’s what everybody should do but most people don’t do. And they usually don’t know how to, or why to, or when to, or what to do.” (03:01) (Stan)

    “The point is, you’re not gonna be right all the time. You have to plan for the mistakes. And money management is all about that.” (12:47) (Stan)

    “It’s not the tool you use, it’s how you use the tool.” (20:02) (Stan)

    “We are human beings and it is our nature to do this [trading and investing]. And this is one of the things that’s crazy about trading in particular, and investing to a degree, it’s counter-intuitive.” (26:54) (Stan)

    “What looks good is not and what looks bad is good. Again, trading in particular and investing in general is counter-intuitive.” (31:13) (Stan)
