Yet in the next post our genius brethren enlighten the unwashed masses by informing us to eliminate random and only trade when it trends. Because that's how the pros do it we are told.

He's read more than 600 trading books you should know. A god in the world of theory. Lolz

You don't have to know PhD level statistics. At the very least you should be proficient in the following basics: five figure summaries (what those quartiles, ranges, means and modes all mean) How to calculate ratios What standard deviation means and the relevant formulas (its easier than you...

Defeatist attitude. It is easy to understand if you put the effort in. Also, a certain level of technical proficiency is very important. Become self sufficient with your application of stats don't dismiss it because it looks hard.

Start here: https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/intuition-amplifiers-2.260064/ It starts hitting turbulence when others begin polluting so try to stay focused and follow the core thread of his wisdom. That thread led me to another character who seems to know a thing or two. jack hershey...

Thank you for mentioning him. He started the thread Intuition Amplifiers 2. I've started reading through and mind blown :)

It is impossible to see the market in its entirety , that is, to understand every miniscule movement and the cumulative ripple effect each little nudge has on the whole . Best you can do is trade in the shadows of the shadows. Ever watched those tiny little gnats that fly around in total...

Candles are substituted with balls which represent volume. Cosmetically appealing and if you watch the videos you will get pulled into the sales pitch but as with anything it all still comes down to your interpretation. Op is obviously very excited with his new toy. Just got to give him some...

Bookmap? Did you mention Bookmap? If it was Bookmap you mentioned then yeah I've heard of Bookmap. Glad to see Bookmap is working well for you. Bookmap.

Psychology: Cognitive biases, heuristics, mental distortions, however you want to brand it, can simply be defined as discretion. Knowing your discretionary biases does not mean you have any control over them. Knowing and doing are two very different things. Example: You have a very clear plan at...

Is it only a cognitive distortion when you are wrong? What do you call it when you are right? Sure, you can know your heuristics and biases but where does that leave you? You can never know all the information which means the next moment in the market is still going to be random.

He has his way of trading and you have yours. Why are you so emotional about it? I think that Padutrader has some relevant personal experiences he wishes to share about his journey.

Why are you trying to understand? What are you searching for? The market is in perpetual metamorphosis from one state to the next. Your answer is in your question. So many reversals in row and you are trying to avoid it.... Why? That is the game. Trade what you see.

You ask an irrelevant question and then announce your distrust before anyone has even answered! No one gives a flying fuck if the next person is profitable or not. Go figure it out for yourself. There are no shortcuts.

I agree. I think that the first phase of journaling is about gaining superficial recognition to counter the feeling of uncertainty that the market evokes. But I think people slowly realize how personal the journey is so they stop seeking external acceptance and learn to believe in themselves and...

Loan the stock out? First time I've ever heard of this. How does it work?

These shake outs are necessary. You can't have a bunch of speculators getting in on the lows and hitching a free ride on the fed printing machine that goes brrrrr up to new highs. 1. Fake news. 2. Limit buy orders on the way down 3. Soak up all that panic selling. 4. When you are in position...

It's a lot better than your offer

Don't listen to the hilmy83 clown. Google Lance Beggs. He has some excellent structured learning material.

Anyone trading through a broker situated in Cyprus has obviously not done any due diligence.
