Looks like a 5:3 compression for money velocity; that is, we now make in three days what beginners make in five days. The vertical squashing is becomming evident. Good blitzing. I am posting the answers to your Q's. This is an example of your control of how you are learning. Next...

Very cool. thanks for combining the "blitz" with the contracts added debrief. If you squash the Excel semi log a head of time you will have enough changes of order of magnitude to add the points for each day's log chart end point. The reigning and non hunching will happen as we move up the...

As I mentions in the two "glossary" examples, each contained the "peaking" volume of those two high volatility bars. You can notice their relative location on the price scale. The "skill" of 50 plus contract players is "showing". We frontrun their their "protection" which fails and get our...

Looks like a good start. The log is sufficient (1 page) and it looks like pulling the cover from left to right is working. The "blitz" will be very instructive since you are getting in a lot of reps in a short time. You can squash the vertical scale on the Excel semi log as curves are...

I'll redo the preflight check to cut out the indicator stuff and provide a stronger data set and a more step by step carryover/gap analysis. Along with that I'll add in the news/reporting check we need to have done before open. I reviewed all the debriefing. Thank you for your work...

This is a semi log chart. The vertical axis is scaled logarithmically and the horizontal scale is linear. What you see is the Power Law at work as a straight line curve on a logarithmic scale. You are being informed that your Beginner trading handled each day equally effectively under the...

Thanks for the effort. Good job.

Here is a very pertinent Spyder post on traverse trading at Advanced Beginner: 11-06-08 06:52 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote from romanus: Would you be so kind to point me in the right direction so I can find a flaw in my...

Your trading plan is done for now. It is available on the cover of your learning binder. It is prima facia that when you do the work of SCT you do not have losing trades. Corrections of mistakes, if or when made, yield small profits. This IS the anti whipsaw nature of SCT. Please do not...

MADA, when done, is hunch proof. You rarely, after annotating, look at the screen. Annotating gives you permission to turn to M of MADA. Look up at the screen if you do not remember what goes in the row columns FOR THE LEFT PART OF THE LOG UNDER M OF MADA. Either block the screen...

You will make progress as you gain experience. Experience was one of the boot camp focusses. This weekend you wil be completing 10 days on the Advanced Beginner level. The logs will be abreviated to SHOW the turns already annotaed for traverses. You do whipsaw quite well as it is the chief...

As time passes, we can get an important aspect of boot camp rolling. We are both putting up an interactive dialogue. On Monday we can try again as we start the Beginner Internals and its new log. We just got to see another "news event". News is a taping level function. The past FOMC...

Smooth narrative. As time passes the log will show this depth of considerations. This is the first of four level 2's (traverse) skills. As each level is added we focus on refining the level 2. So more columns show up in support and the narrative incisiveness increases. The narrative...

Check this out later. You need to coordinate the volume annotations with the good price annotations. It is okay to have a traverse level over the tape level and to have a channel level over a traverse level. As Leibnitz and Newton proved in their approaches to Calculus (they phoned each...

This is, as suggested, superb. Here we see a TRADING PLAN IN ACTION. You are identifying collateral excellence at associated levels AND you are focussed on KNOWING WHAT YOU ARE DOING RIGHT within a trading plan. You shade (debrief correctness) decisively now and bank the skills and...

Sorry I wasn't responsive. This is a very very great time to be making money in the markets. It is going to continue at this pace for quite a while. On a daily basis it is easier to give in to using a scale that is compressed rather than sticking with a personal mental calibration on scaling...

we lost cable for a while here today. I tried to post this after saving it in Word. Attached is a 2003 word document. In addition to my attached comments here is a step by step which may be helpful to us. I NEED to see where you are in this process. This is selfish BUT it is a way...
