第一部分 新手交易

Are traders born or made? There is no simple answer. Both aptitude and learning are important, but in different proportions for different people. At one extreme are born geniuses who require very little learning. At the other are gamblers and dunces, whom no classes are likely to help. The rest of us are in the middle of the curve, with some aptitude but in need of education.

交易者是天生的，还是后天培养的？没有简单的答案。天资和学习都很重要，但是不同的人，比例也不同。极端情况下，天才只需要学一点点。另外就是赌徒和傻瓜，课堂学习并不能帮助他们。我们大多数人在中间，我们有些能力，但更需要学习。

A genius has little need for a book because he has a fantastic feel for the market. A gambler is too busy getting high on adrenaline. This book is written for the trader in the middle.

天才很少看书是因为他对市场非常敏感。赌徒则忙着追求刺激。本书是为两者之间的交易者写的。
