    Cows and price action

    Cattle futures. The herd has been wandering into the sky for years, then ran downhill and back up again. If only we could read their brains for the psychological switch, into PANIC MODE!

    Cows and price action

    Ed Seykota once said there's a lot in common between bond price movements and the way cockroaches crawl up and down a wall. I've been watching cows for a while now and see the same thing! Let me explain. There are two modes of cow movement: 1. wandering around 2. one starts to run and...

    Stock is looking limp and retracing as expected into the 77-82 range. Monthly chart totally called it, with the 20sma directly overhead. Current counts could go anywhere, but I'm holding until I can't take it anymore. No leverage, no averaging down, just letting it decide what it wants to do...

    Companies investing billions in ai, what if no monetary gain is possible?

    In the short term the market is like a popularity contest, or a voting machine. Let's go Brandon! In the long term it's a weighing machine, to find who's swimming naked. But the tide can take 10 years to go out. -wisdom from a guru of yesteryear

    Trading is like business, not math, physics, engineering or science

    Klaus realized no one was going to give him their cowz after all the outlandish claims that chitllin was just as good as chicken. Remember the dude who worked for roundup, claiming it was harmless, then a journalist got him on camera and posed the challenge? Klaus, if you're reading this, we...

    California: Green Energy Meets Demand

    Been off grid for years in the mountains of socal, 800w panels, batteries, inverter, charge controllers. Basically a giant version of an RV dry camp setup. Only time it gets sketchy is in winter, after a week of clouds. The weather here makes it work. Far more cost effective and trouble free...

    That sounds about right, and even 4 years of data is kinda small. Years ago I made and SPY trend following algo and optimized it in one year of data, thirteen years, everything in between, and let it run into the future to check the results. The one year optimized version made no money. The...

    +100 AT 83.5945. Total position 200 shares. Itching to pounce on it in my 401k..... that profit sharing is incredible. I never knew about this type of thing!

    Price Action doesn't work anymore due to Algos

    Huge risk is being in danger of a sudden, humiliating defeat due to one single event. Weightlifters always stand there with their arms out and their chin up in a fight. You know the chin is the "emergency stop" button for the brain, right? Proper risk management is keeping your handz up at...

    Proverbs 11:22: "Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion." King Solomon was a fascinating character. I won't nerd out on you with biblical correlations and turning points, but he was the one who put wealth, wisdom, and women before the Lord. The kingdom...

    Price Action doesn't work anymore due to Algos

    Thanks. Risk Management, for me, means not removing my defenses (for the sake of engaging the enemy with a strike, or position in the market in our case) until he / it is sufficiently dazed, confounded, lazy, or just exhausted. Some strikes are much safer than others (like a sneaky jab, Joe...

    Remember when you posted this? I'm not trying to start a fight, just hoping you will reconsider your position. Defend yourself at all times.

    Kicking it off with 100 shares, 83.50 at open. Expecting a retrace to the 77 level, and a potential flag in this range while volatility declines. Or it just explodes from here!

    Price Action doesn't work anymore due to Algos

    Anderson Silva used to confound, confuse and clobber guys twice his size when he first entered the UFC. Then he started switching his style, again and again. Conor McGregor said the same thing about Mr. Mayweather during their post fight presser. The real danger is when others begin to see...
