Still doing it. When I first submitted this post -- http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showpost.php?p=3941564&postcount=280 -- the new software ended it at the first apostrophe. By now, I've learned to copy the posts before hitting Submit Reply, so I pasted it and tried again. Still no go...

An enormous difference exists between debating policy and managing assets. They are two radically different activities. You folks are talking at cross purposes. Grad students can go to Cafe Reggio on MacDougal Street, smoke clove cigarettes, stroke their goatees and debate this philosophically...

This is why I asked my questions, but the OP hasn't responded. If one believes that trendlines and trend channels should incorporate all or most of the price movement, then he loses all the OB/OS information, and that can be important, particularly with regard to AMT and the continuing...

Interesting hinge today, tho one has to zoom out or go to a larger bar interval to see it easily. I read somewhere or was told that if price does not exit the hinge by the time it is two-thirds of the way toward the apex, it will more likely just dribble out the end and go nowhere, at least for...

I've been asked about a few "nuances" with regard to trading price that come up fairly frequently but which may be unnecessary distractions to those who are trying to learn this. First, again, one should read the first post to this thread. In that post, links to the first three threads are...

Good stuff.

I'm uploading this as a Word document bec of the truncating business. If that makes you nervous, I can always convert it to a pdf.

You don't see any of the conditions that you've enumerated this week as being not conducive to focused and disciplined trading?

Is it necessary to use a particular browser to access the site? 90 seconds to load a page is extreme.

Given all the new journals which are focused on price action, it seems an appropriate time to repost this; I post this here -- from another site -- not because I'm mentioned but because I like the sentiments expressed regarding the path one chooses and the value that can be obtained from a...

None of that is necessary. This is a journal, not a trading log (journal? journey?). It's for you to use however you please, even if you do nothing but make observations. Those are after all what will form the basis for the hypotheses you eventually test to develop your trading plan, if you...

I have to wonder why you're asking this now after nine years, but . . . What is the purpose of a trendline? What is the purpose of a trend channel?

Perhaps it has nothing to do with the money, nor with "losing face". Perhaps you're simply afraid to be wrong. You don't trust your own plan because you think it will place you in a trade that's wrong. So you trade without a plan and end up being wrong anyway. Rather than avoid being wrong, you...

Why? ......

Re this morning's chart, when it comes to a showdown between "resistance" and AMT, AMT -- in this instance -- won: Now on to 60?

I've been asked about the difference between demand lines and supply lines on the one hand and trendlines on the other. Searching for relevant posts brings back far too many hits. And explaining it in words doesn't do much good, so I'll show you. You can, of course, call all of these...

Hurry slowly.

What's up with ET taking so long to load? Wait and wait and wait and . . .

On the other hand, you didn't lose anything. Where do you think all that buying at and after the open came from? Who would be desperate to buy at any price?

And the ES:
