    Questions to Jack Hershey

    A brief comment. A trader's goal is to be able to work effectively in real time. you will see the market and simultaneously your mind will fill in the thought so you have perception. Perception is 90% inference from your mind and 10% what you sense. On the 405 bar charts you are going...

    Why can't you scale up and be a billionaire?

    Just taking a break here. I enjoyed reading your commentary. It is often a good idea to read the earliest posts of any ET member. You probably are very typical of a potential trader who has not followed the market very much. Maybe you do believe what you posted. A good trader does not...

    Questions to Jack Hershey

    Thank you for thinking through what I suggested. The final on the mark punch line is that the method of annotating is NOT descretionary. By looking at 405 bars from bar one and using the 10 cases and annotating adjacent bars, you get to build interlocking fractals. And you eliminate any...

    Intraday Indicators

    See attached for a possible way to use MACD properly. Specifically what you are asking about is about 4 or 5 paragraphs in. There is a myth here in ET that if something is not understood or "it diesn't work for me", then that person is responsible for everyone else in the world and has to...

    Trend Following + Range Trading

    For followers of the CW of the financial industry all of this is called "unbelievable". It is certainly unbelievable and this "unbelievability" has been verified in the most direct ways. The market offers and CW types DO NOT TAKE THE OFFER, EVER.

    Trading Math - Part I

    You are correct. This thread points out how most analysts cannot even get a foothold in assessing how markets work. Time has to be replaced by an events series.

    Questions to Jack Hershey

    So cool. It's like DNA. Now slowly deal with what you HAVE and how three pairs of up down do not work, Just write two columns. One column for up/down and one column for Dominant/non-dominant. Use U, D, and DOM and ND. Make it look like this U Dom D ND U Dom D...

    Questions to Jack Hershey

    SKO the difference between the numbers I use and yours is that I relate to the beginnning of trends and you relate to the end of their overlap (the BO place of price). The reason I posted the deductive problem was to try to switch people over the "reasoning" to put things in their minds...

    Questions to Jack Hershey

    Currently I have a five book suite on trading reduced to about 12,000 draft pages. It will remain an inhouse adjunct. Your PH editor's boss was assigned to me (in 48 hours) about four years ago. I declined. To get serious, I am now involved in two books. One deals with 7 watersheds that...

    Questions to Jack Hershey

    The log I jotted down was an events based list. Under time, all I did was number to order of events. I just listed what happens on "the Pattern" for a cycle which would include a long and a short in any order. Your P,V is a more complex chart illustration. All I wanted to achieve was...

    Questions to Jack Hershey

    We did that in ET. Get up to date. Let's not talk anymore, you are too far behind the times. We also stopped the bait and switch types on C2. Did you notice when my name was removed from those accounts? Probably not.
