    It is for certain that I cannot beat the "walk" that you do. It is a neat thing that you can do better than the market offer. I have noticed how great your illustrations are of this style of trading you do. Keep up being such a cool and great example.

    It may be that the OP and other posters here do not know that there is NOT a direct relationship between risk and reward. It appears to me that the relationship is inverse. It is something like little risk yields more reward. Or, great risk yields little reward. Personally, I keep risk...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    I'm 81 and my hobby is posting the facts with my limited time. Some people find what I say to be "unbelievable". I think it is for them. The thing that works best in trading is compounding profits. I just keep the BP level at 94% of capital and after settlement each day the accounts just...

    I am getting my butt handed to me on a daily basis!

    for those who collect rare events, here is a trend that went through all volume cases and then just pooped out as an Ab LVBO. Pink is P1, green is P2, red is T2P, and blue is T2F. The n+1 test yielded a failure to end the trend. (P3F). Peak 3 Failure. You may wish to print it on a full...

    I am getting my butt handed to me on a daily basis!

    Monday's chart. Notice how we setup for the open at the end of the day. The call for open is short as a non dominant opening trade in a long dominant sentiment market. (in a 30 min lateral that lasted all day)

    I am getting my butt handed to me on a daily basis!

    Your pic shows some P1's. Notice some of them are in a different trends. And there is a requirement that the three accerating P1's have to be in the same trend One of the neat principles of market theory is that it is NOT possible to use data from different trends except during trend...

    Why Do People Trade?

    To have more money, a convenient medium of exchange. During the day my P&L sheet gets longer and longer. I do reversals when the market sentiment changes. Simply stated it is my policy to stay on the correct side of the market. During the day commissions are taken as I do trades. My...

    Why Do People Trade?

    I extract capital from pools. Why, you say? my answer: Capital is universally recognized as a medium of exchange. Why fight city hall. Huge amounts of capital are in pools for reasons unknown to me. Pools have market names. Drink CocaCola. I use the equivalent of a straw. Basically...
