Yes and meditation is the way to go to be able to see a trading signal for what it is

Strong words.

Upon reflection, I wonder myself what is the connection. I just believe overall that we need to have a sense of detachment, and be a little passionate at the same time. Very hard to do. Food to me is an outlet for creativity. Sometimes I think people get into meditation to isolate from the world...

If the OP is from where I think he's from, I've been there. People there eat mayo and lots of meat and potatoes. And fresh dairy products. Like thick slabs of butter on rye bread. And kefir. And sausage. And people seem to be pretty healthy overall. And not so neurotic

I myself am on a see food diet

I read The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle often, sometimes every day. It usually helps keep me focused--or the opposite. I have ADD pretty bad_so meditation is really difficult on my own. I use a guided meditation by Roy Masters that's 7 min long, and one by CJ Savage. I've been hypnotized...

It's a good thread, ET. I'm tired and I know I have something to add, but not now. Two days getting ready to go on the road again. The grass was calling, it had to be mowed. The food had to be cooked, cause fast food sucks. And meanwhile the currencies are moving all over, with earthquakes and...

The difference is Mr Market demands respect. Not so with your sheets and pillow cases. You can push them as long as you want, they'll never make you broke, just a little bit dirty. I'm sort of in the same camp. My life can be falling apart, I still generally see the markets clearly. Sometimes...

Botpro, you really need to get out more.

Omg

I get all excited when I see traders trying to pick a top. Just gives me that warm, fuzzy feeling all over. Like watching a car stranded on the train tracks.

There's another side to seeing the bigger picture. Most people, actually all of us to some degree, carry our beliefs with us when we look at the markets. Until we break through our conditioning, we really don't see what is in front of us, rather a concept, a derivative of the actual thing which...

It's sort of funny and ironic to me that the city of LasVegas has a public relations problem. I think if one lived there their experience would be different. For example, I live in Florida, but I've never been to Bike Week or the Daytona 500. Never been to Disney while I lived here,either. But...

Yes I see that now and could have acknowledged that. I actually read a book called The Poker Face of Wall Street.

yes, I get that. I'm just wondering if there are any wider examples.

That was really good. Thanks bone. It's just a theory, so I'll have to think about it some more.

I don't see trading as being about risk management. I manage risk so I can keep trading. The bigger picture of what is changing in the world is more interesting than cards or chips

Nothing per se. . .

Adults behaving like children let out for recess. I think it would be interesting to work backstage at the events, or work in hospitality doing banquets or setup. I did do some of this in Boston, and you get to meet a lot of interesting people. There are so many acts that come through Vegas, so...
