WOW! I am making sure I am buckled up. Thoughts about what is to be learned are consuming me, which I really like. Headed to get the pencils now. Thanks!

Thanks Jack. Thanks Outsource.

Jack, Working on Vol and Boolean. Is the attachment on track?

LOL Nope. Not Albanian, or a terrorist.

Jack, It feels like I have been handed a textbook on a subject I know nothing about. And, upon receiving the textbook, I learn that I must start in the the middle and read to the end. Yet I am expected to understand the last half without a prior foundation that the first half would have...

I have been at this trading thing a long time. With nearly every post read I realize how much, and how little, I know. Thanks OutSource

Jack, I'll get there...But, ever since you have posted a reply to my "HOW?" my mind has been swimming trying to figure out what you posted. Maybe it is I just don't have a feel for how you relay concepts and ideas. I have found the SCT Journal and am trying to learn from that. Am I...

I guess you will have to explain both comments you made to me. 1. I don't understand what you are calling sane or insane. 2. I am not sure why you would think I was Hershey. I know nothing about him. I have only read a few of his posts. From what little I have seen I wonder why you...

I have already stopped trading, albeit temporarily. I think I am back in control. That is why I originally posted here. 1. To help continue to 'put the brakes on' and 2. To discuss with others what a mess I have made and how best to recover from it. When you say I need to accept the I'll...

Mr Hershey, I understand your post except I am still not fully understanding the sense of how you are suggesting that I "have lost much of (my) potential mental capacity" Is it the thought that I am creating a subconscious imprint of failures in my mind which are near impossible to erase...

Yes, I see signs of addiction in me at times. Other times I don't. Lately, as my losses mount I see it more. I guess I think we all have these signs in us in varying degrees. I don't smoke, I have never done drugs, I have never been an alcoholic, when I go to Vegas I gamble with a hundred...

Points well made and taken. Thanks

I think you have understood me well. I think your advice is good and I have even decided to do that a few times. But, then I talk myself out of it and say "It will be different today". The hell of the deal is I see these warning signs in my decisions and still proceed to trade. I have...

Thanks for your courtesy and help!

Cool. In other words two things are happening as I currently am. 1. Obviously I am losing money. (This may seem odd, but that does not bother me that much. I can make money back doing things I am good at, but had rather not do. I truly enjoy trading. Even given the last months major...

I see what you are saying. I am moving towards automating my system. That will also allow me to back test with more accuracy. Good words, thanks.

There is no doubt that I would have made more money in a sweat shop in China than I have made in the last three months. That seems clear.

I feel like I am good at identifying these support and resistance levels. Maybe I am not as good at it as I think. Would you suggest a way I might get better at it? A book or something that you found helpful.

Thanks for your good words sir...
