    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    This is a just a general reply to anyone, I'm not getting at you baron193. I would expect that the excel file would be useless without a data feed to use it with. So perhaps instead of expecting a free file some effort should be put into learning to program in excel/visual basic, writing your...

    I've had a CFD account with CMC Markets for about 18 months and I've never had any really bad experiences. There are occasional issues with service disruption, but thats also the case with any internet service. I don't trade for a living, at least not yet, and it suits me to continue using CMC...

    Strange looking plots. The plots seem to be repeated by folding over along the horizontal axis. What is the reasoning for doing that? The only T&S data I have access to is in a different format from ProRealTime and I've decided not to renew my subscription.

    I wasn't copying TE as he never elaborated on the gap secret or what it could be used for. But he suggested gaps have a 'property' and being curious I did my own investigation and came to a conclusion, so I think that was useful in itself. BTW I very rarely trade at the open due to the fact...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    Actually it was TO who said "the ultimate obvious is not attainable". On the one hand the statement seemed to be saying that there is an ultimate secret that will never be revealed. On the other hand I thought the statement was possibly just word play meaning: the ultimate obvious is not in TA...

    What stands out for me is the word 'speed', it has no meaning as far as the diagram is concerned. Also there are loops within loops not just one, and I'd like to think my brain is better than an Intel Core Duo. The d is misplaced in 'feed forward'. Also there is no output, every control system...

    No JH, magnitude and direction is not sufficient for an object to be a vector. I have a mathematical backround, I know exactly what it means and that you just throw in these terms as buzz words to dazzle and BS those who don't know, and for me that is enough for you to have no credibility...

    I was just wondering why Boyd keeps being mentioned as I had already read various info about him having seen references throughout this thread. As far as intercepting aircraft is concerned, one way is: "Proportional navigation (PN) (Pro-Nav) is a guidance law used in some form or another by...

    OK, an adaptive feedback loop of self improvement, but why the repeated mention of Mrs Boyd or John in this thread? I'd come to the conclusion that there were no secrets, or rainbows to chase, just simple gambling principles that I understand already, and also personal psychology to master...

    Yes BR :cool: To be 'FREE' of the hampster wheel is the aim, but how to locate the small big secret, where to look to find the key.

    In the placement of the horizontal lines, is the idea that recent levels tend to form in roughly equal price bands, possibly revealing the buying and selling campaign of the major players over a period of time. TE used to draw levels on charts and also diagonal lines that looked like measured...

    The time of day is important, as I would not wish to open a trade too near to the daily close, and perhaps during midday period too.

    RN I'm suprised at your attack on me. You misquoted me as I actually said: "Seems like I have out grown this thread so I'll not post here again." At the time I said that it was true statement based on the state of the thread at the time, i.e. I felt it had reached a conclusion, for me...

    And not forgetting Mr Charts too. I'd not come across Elite34S, I'll read though the MATRIX as its quirky enough to grab my interest. I had thought for a while that TO was TE and that he had mellowed a bit, but there are certain things that were said that make me think they are different...

    From the chart as presented only, I'd go long if price rises above the blue box and short if price falls below the blue box. Otherwise if price moves towards either red line within the blue box and changes direction I'd need to see how decisive the following bars were before commiting to trade...

    Regarding ADR, all the charting software I've come across has not had ADR available as a standard indicator. Some charting software has the option to program your own indicators, so calculating the H-L range and taking an exponential moving average with period 5 should then be straightforward...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    "Why is The Obvious Not So Obvious?" Thats the question but what is curious to me is why so many apparently try guess instead of solving the puzzle by reasoning first and then stating the answer. Its a solvable problem. Maybe this will provide an insight...
