What's the meaning of "f... you."
In Dr. Alexander Elder's book Come into My Trading Room, there is a paragraph just as following:
I had a friend who drove a tank in World War ll, fighting his way from Stalingrad to Vienna.

He won the war with a few simple tools, and we can apply his lessons to the dangerous environment of the markets.
