That may be true for an investor, but it is completely false when speaking of a trader. A trader need not know the underlying stock to make a profit consistently. The uninformed continue to think trading and investing are the same. They are nothing alike.

Good point... I confused the terms there. I was referring to an investor whenever I said 'trader' in my previous comment.
