Dan,

While you are correct that most "contest" winners employ a non-diversified short term strategy; I take issue with your closing comment.

I suggest that starting traders would be wise to believe they "may lose/probably will lose" all their trading capital at least one time during the first 4 years of experience.

Why would anyone start trading with an expectation of losing all their trading capital?

With a bit of education, anyone can be a successful investor/trader, if they are willing to put in the required time.
