The Obvious is not so Obvious because we (Traders) look at it (in our charts) each and every day without seeing it. So maybe we should ask the question: "what am I looking at when I look at a Chart, and what is the chart made of that I do not see for what it is?" I can promise you that when...

I don't know if my definition(s) of the Box corresponds to that of NY but they work pretty well for me, so...it does not really matter, does it? Once you stop chasing the impossible and settle on the probable it is actually pretty easy to make good money consistently!

Yes, but I hope you agree that there is no shortcut to consistency, you need to gain the experience and you need to figure your own way to skin the cat. :D

Well, not sure I agree with you, I have given this some thought but I cannot think of being able to trade without some understanding of where to place low risk trades and to do so I need to have some idea of how price move or better what is the likely range withing which the price is likely to...

I have a question: is it more useful to understand the HOW or the WHY price move one way or another or is it necessary to understand both? I mean, I have some understanding of why even if I cannot connect it with the how all the time, on the other hand I often enough understand how price move...

I honestly have no idea...

Yes to the first, what if you defined where to expect the H/L of the next bar on, say, a 30' TF and traded a lower TF within these boundaries... now would you not know exactly what to do whatever happened? of course there are some bars that are safer to trade than others...

I did find it very useful, actually in conjunction with a couple more threads it has been the basis of my consistent profitability. however, the messages the OPs delivered have become clear only after I did my own work, which in my own opinion is the main message here: figure things out for...

on any TF, are you ever able to guess where the next candle is likely to be? if so how can you use that? remember 100 penny makes a pound...

what if instead of Box we say candle? isn't it obvious?

Hmmm, I got the exact same impression...

Thing is that I can BLASH and BHASH at the same time... guess how?

Two years: the first I spent losing big money, the second paper trading, now since March 16 I have been consistently profitable (about 60% gain on my starting capital) but I have done that while working, leaving work to live as a trader, moving to another country. I am a discretionary trader...

Pelt you are on the right track, BLASH and SHABL is quite Obvious, in fact it is so obvious that is overlooked and discarded by most traders... However that's not enough as you need to figure out what (not where) is Low and High, these changes over time but for a limited amount of time they...

The election night was a very good trading night, while the masses were selling I was buying, when they started to buy I started to sell...made very good money, yeah!

Trading is as easy or as hard as you make it, basically you just need to BLASH (Buy Low And Sell High) and/or to SHABL (Sell High And Buy Low), it is as simple as that, however, you first need to figure out what is High and what is Low, you do that and you will make money...

use margin at your own peril... I rather avoid using margin and if I use it it is only short term and with autoimposed limitations. much safer that way

yep lots of money changing hands last night, fortunately a good bit (relatively) dropped in my hands, thanks the election panic...

by the way, anyone cought the (down side) bait and lost money last night?

JS is a crazy (good) horse and sometime he was a bit provocative, he probably went just too far for ET moderators and got banned. It is also true that he probabòy had had enough of the BS that goes around here often enough...
