Where are the animal spirits?

So you think there is one "background algorithm" that determines all price movment?

I have spent countless hours analyzing the charts. Obviously, I'm not the only one that has done this. I have used most of the tools available to try and figure out what drives the price from one point to another and why. I have also used something that can very closely follow the algorithm, but obviously doesn't have 100% correlation with the algorithm, but the correlation is high enough. High enough for me to notice what is really going on behind price action.

First thing I'm gonna say is that simple tools that are available to traders are not good enough. Those tools can only follow the algorithm so far, which is why these tools sometimes get it right, however they are far from catching up.

Second thing I'm gonna say is that this algorithm has predetermined target, and the price will not reverse until the said target is reached. I have personally observed this through countless examples already. No matter the news (positive or negative), the price will be guided precisely to its destination.

Third thing, supply and demand will never and can never produce this kind of price action. It seems like chaos, but it is nothing but order/predetermined. Some traders here actually have systems that are capable of following the algorithm to an extent, however they will never match it perfectly, and some do not even realize what they have.

Fourth and last thing, I do believe that an extensive research could add even more correlation with the algorithm. It isn't random, it has rules/system of its own.

Yes, I am convinced that what we're dealing with is a background algorithm (call it what you like). This is why sometimes traders that have a good system can nail the point at which the price will reverse. This is their system tracking the algorithm. However, even good systems aren't able to fully track the algorithm. In rare cases, they do. The better the system, the more correlation it has with the algorithm.

Analysis is by no means over. I have spent years doing the research and I will spend even more years trying to figure it out as much as I can.

One more thing, the algorithm is perfect on all time frames. It has its destination on M1 chart and MN chart. Unfortunately, the tools we use will never be able to track the algorithm perfectly, because they are either sometimes too fast and/or sometimes too slow. And sometimes just at the right pace with the algorithm itself.

I will add this! The way in which you can tell whether your system is good at tracking the algorithm is how often your system can successfully identify the price where sharp reversal is happening/going to happen. The more often your system can identify strong price reversal points, the greater its correlation with the said algorithm is.
