There was nothing safe about farming for food. Which is why people banded together for mutual defense and protection and usually depended on someone more militaristic to envelop them in a physical envelope, such as a walled city. Those who went it alone out in the boonies were low-hanging fruit.

Actually, I can. My doctorate is in developmental psychology.

When Christian Terror Targets Muslims An ordained minister pleaded guilty to threatening to burn down a New York town full of Muslims. Where's the FBI press conference and Fox News panic?

That's because risk-aversion is a learned behavior. As is fear.

Not really. Nearly all children are natural risk-takers.

One could ask the same of you, as you continue to spout the same old tired "random market theory" baloney.

There are a select few who regularly profit from their involvement in organized markets, and there is the great ma jor ity of people who do not. Among the points which distinguish successf ul traders and investors on one hand from the vast ma jority of market...

Doesn't matter. All movement is tick movement. How the trader bundles this information into a variety of bars or candles or whatever doesn't change that.

And our hypocrisy rolls on . . .

And there you go again, tolerance and intolerance joined together. But you don't get it and never will. That's characteristic of zealots.

I don't know about drawing lines on candle highs and lows. I don't do that. But as for price movement being founded in the past, yes. As for mathematicians having some special insight into how past behavior translates into possible future movement, one would be better off referring to psychology...

My God, that was thirteen years ago :). Even so, I stand by what I wrote at the time. Computer simulations are not the same as RT trading given that behavior is an element in RT trading, unless one is automated. Therefore, Mr Subliminal's results are irrelevant. Magee understood this.

The "recent future"?

Not in advance.

This has come up before. I suggest that those who see "talent" are in fact seeing the results of someone having characterized his market. Those who go through this process see things that others do not.

How many times have you boasted about your "report" this week alone? Don't try being disingenuous. You're not particularly good at it.

It's also a problem of the claimant. But if one is presented with a trading plan, the "listener" can verify the results for himself. Otherwise . . .

All of which depends on how thoroughly one has characterized his market and tested this particular strategy. If he knows exactly how far the apparent breakout must reach in order to shift the probability of success to his side and what to look for in order to determine whether or not the trade...

All of which sounds good, but given that his trading results have been so dismal (except for the hindsight trades taken in the middle of the night :)), this advice doesn't amount to much. On the other hand . . .
