Good afternoon, Mr. Bleek. First of all I want to tell you that I do not speak English (google translator). I have long since come along its thread and very interesting. More than 30,000 visitors make their teachings are expected by many people. 3 or 4 people who disagree with his way of presenting their views are irrelevant. Mr. Bleek I look forward to learning from you every day. Thank you very much Mr. Bleek
Not only that, I am also intrigued that just before he left he said that he was about to reveal the magic. No doubt his finger hovered over the 'enter' key as he considered finally sending his document. Or perhaps, on second thoughts, the magic was the vanishing act
So he's suddenly gone from not being able to explain anything to being able to explain it all. But he won't be doing now, because one or two posters, out of several thousand viewers have upset him.
I cannot help but feel that there is really something odd going on here. There were many contradictions with Bleek, especially when it came to outlining his system.
For example in post 245 he says: "I rarely trade in the afternoon or evening but last night after 10 seconds looking at the chart I saw a sitter, I was 100% sure (call me a fool all you like) I knew in which direction the market was headed and even to the pip where it would stop and I should take profit."
Now that is some insight, the ability to see a move of that magnitude, and it must be based on something apart from his 'ethereal vision'. But it is all unexplainable ... until his leaving announcement that is.
Anyway, for those waiting for the document: It is not the first time that Bleek has said he will produce a document. On another thread, just check the archive, you will find a similar announcement and, once again, that document did not surface either - and that was a long, long time ago.
So, although I shall reserve final judgement on this peculiar set of circumstances, I must say I find it all a little bit surreal.

I will be as objective as possible here, but I find these circumstances surrounding Bleek's vanishing act very, very strange to say the least.

I'm not particularly bothered as to if bleek is the real deal or not, if he's fed up with the negative posts on here and can't be bothered, then fair play, however I would be interested in an objective discussion of methodology.
But I won't be holding my breath
.I know this is a journal, but I refer you to post 15, where Bleek says:
"I'll try and explain in more detail when I get time."
Now that was written way back in March. How much time does anyone need?
So once again, without wishing to drag this out, I find it all very strange.
Regards,
Wouldn't we all? Be interested in an objective discussion of the methodology, that is.

Now I can't speak for him, but here is a story from my real life which I think explains it. When I first joined the company I work for, I was a total newbie at what we do. I always had to go ask people for help. Eventually I didn't have to ask people for help much anymore, and noticed other (newer) people started asking me for help. I was happy to help them, probably because it validated my knowledge, I was more than happy to share my knowledge with others. I really enjoyed getting up from my desk and going to someone else's desk and try to solve the problem for them. As time passed, I became more and more "expert" and stopped feeling the need to validate myself or my knowledge, I was well aware of my capabilities and people kept asking me the same things and I got tired of helping others. Now I rarely get up to help anyone and avoid it like the plague. I generally have zero interest in helping any of the newbies.
So imo Bleek *may* have gone through that sort of thing, he was posting trades and intended to post his method but then he became jaded and stopped.
Or he's a scam but personally I think he's for real. Either way I think it's useless to keep posting here because I doubt he's coming back.

I don't find it strange at all. To my mind, he started this journal and intended to post his method, then he started getting better results than expected and decided not to share it (plus others asked him not to). This is really to be expected, I mean if I started trading very successfully there is no way I would share the details of my methods on a public (or any) forum. We're all just trying to leech off him anyway, right? I wouldn't give a shit about any random person on a forum and I don't feel entitled to anything that someone else has spent...
"Now I rarely get up to help anyone and avoid it like the plague. I generally have zero interest in helping any of the newbies."
I wonder how you would feel if all the experts on FF felt the same way about your questions? I mean why would you, or anybody else for that matter, bother joining such a forum? Actually, I wonder how many would help you if they knew that this is what you would do in future with the information and help they gave you?
Anyway, enough ... perhaps, in Bleek's case, we'll never know the truth of the matter ...

Anyhow... if I ever do crack/understand this method I'll let y'all know, though I won't tell you it either.
But in order to get there I'd have to start doing it... at the moment I still have a few books from my reading list to go through, then I'm going to take a long hard look at charts and Bleek's posts."Now I rarely get up to help anyone and avoid it like the plague. I generally have zero interest in helping any of the newbies."

To be sure a lot of them do, otherwise they would post more. Just look at all the very knowledgeable members who used to post and now no longer or rarely do. Not all due to this reason of course but some, sure, I know because they posted that very sentiment. I'm not at that place as far as trading goes, I'm still at the point where I will gladly help others if they ask, though as I'm still a relative newbie (discovered trading 12 months ago) that means I won't want to voice my opinion on a lot of things as I don't feel qualified to do so. But I'm...
Anyway, I've already cracked this method, but I'm not telling you either
But, being the kind hearted altruistic, philanthropist that I am, I will meet you half-way. So, when you've finally cracked it, PM me to outline the details and your understanding of the method, and I'll let you know if your on the right track. Is it a deal?

Aim for the stars and you may just hit the moon. Any newbie will have their disillusions addressed after a little experience at the hard right edge.
Regarding the whole, "don't divulge your method" thing, are you really going to lose any kind of edge? There's nothing really new under the sun, pretty much all analysis methods can be traced back to the likes of R.D. Wyckoff et al and that's all freely available information, a simple Google search will bring back more material than you could probably digest in a life time.
So what's the problem...
For example, here's an interesting quote:
"I understand it's not a system.
But you also have to appreciate that anyone could come on here and post cryptic clues, vague hints, glimmers of hope, and argue that not qualifying any of it is merely to defend their position and knowledge which then begs the question, why post in the first place?"
Guess who said that? Hmmm, you'd better believe it! Check out post #57 here:
