I agree that time is essentially man made. But HOW do you eliminate TIME from your trading? All I can think of is by using charts that dont take into account the time factor, such as renko, range or other type of charts. Because even by using MA ...

The Logic Behind the Pitchfork

TA — I think TA does hold value but not in the way it is publicly taught or shared. I mean, yes, you get crap loads of books, be them TA, FA, Quants, blablabla. Many will and gladly do share "bits" here and there. But lets face it, the real ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

Sounds like the law of attraction. But how can one objectively quantify such thing? When I watched "the secret" a lot of it was very new age(ish) stuff, when I watched "what the bleep do we know" it intriged me the experiment whereby the outcome was ...

The Logic Behind the Pitchfork

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

Shame on all you guys arguing like pitiful little children. Absolutely pathetic. Instead of constructive criticism the majority of you people just argue. I guess the lot of you are just as predictable as everyone else here. We got the order flow ...

Could you elaborate on this if you dont mind?

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

I correlate insurance companies more to option sellers. They receive a premium and if x happens they lose. In the end, the insurances RR is skewed, thousands upon thousands of "small" fees, when they get a call they pay out a lot more than what they ...

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

And this sir, is the reason why (a) forums like this contain mostly crap, (2) most in fact dont know what they are doing, their ego/arrogance gets in the way, and (3) they turn to bashing and nonsense. Pathetic really...

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

Questions — So, many a time I wonder to myself if to be succesful as a trader we need not predict. Yet many say we cannot predict but guestimate, "its all probability blablabla...". But, we must also "position ourselves" before the rest. "How ...

Why exactly do EMA crossover systems not work?

Why exactly do EMA crossover systems not work?

I know i can apply any type, even colors and also how thick and how thin too. But, is that what I was asking? I was simply asking if there was any particular USE in applying open/close as opposed to high/low....

Why exactly do EMA crossover systems not work?

open and close — Ok...When using a moving average, whichever it may be, is there any particular reason as to apply it to the open/close (?) as opposed to the high/low (chop/trend/vol.)? Just curious about this...

Why exactly do EMA crossover systems not work?

When you refer to "interpreting", are we talking about subjective interpretation that cannot be logically defined?
