I like this SAMUS. For me, I had to think outside the box and get what i call "crazy" in order for me to SEE/INTUIT market structure and market language!

Try to do a buy and hold for the next five years and see what happens. If I'm not mistaken, the market returned approx. 150% the last five years! If that happened again, the DOW would be +40,000! What are the odds of that happening? I see more of a collapse in the next five years or some kind of...

I'll try not to sound too negative. I know that feeling of wanting to make that "transition" to successful- "control of one's destiny"- independent trader! It's a very STRONG urge! With that being said, I'm pretty sure you'll go for it...you just can't help yourself. You must be ready to learn...

I BET YOUR ONLY A TOUGH GUY ON THE INTERNET...WHINYCHILD! BRING IT ON o_O

I've always KNOWN THE RULES and always believed they were ridiculous when states held conventions... rather than primaries where voters would be heard! Do you think this should be changed at all? Are you telling me voters shouldn't be important in some cases? Anyways, I know that most, if not...

I agree! He knew it was rigged in the first place...too late to whine about it now. The whole system is corrupt...is there anything the people can do about it...apparently voting does't work...apparently most people don't care anyways!:vomit:

VERY COOL PICTURE!

I hate the GAPS...very difficult to prepare for.:wtf:

All I do is intraday (except retirement accts.). Over the years I've become hypersensitive to the slightest change in volatility...the only way I can achieve high win rate. In that respect, my methodology has complexity to it. If simplicity is working for you...good job...don't change it!:)

Agree. I do have different Blue Prints for market change...its not always clear which is the most optimal to choose though...dissecting is merely "which DIFFERENT blue print" under this type of market change is going to be best at this time. Sometimes I forward test for awhile to draw my...

AWESOME!

Totally agree! My strategies look like BLUE PRINTS...but when market conditions change, it becomes more like a detective dissecting all "documentation" of a murder case...what is most probable...I think this is the tricky part that takes more intuition and experience.

I can only say from my own experience and you probably won't like the answer. I think the best way to have cut down the years of my own learning curve, would be to throw out the constant search for the "instruction booklet" from others! As soon as I quit asking other traders to tell me how to...

If its been that simple for you...great for you! My brain is always "ON" for market condition changes...have never found that to be simple...then turn brain off for setup execution. This is the only way I can trade high win rate...personality will not allow a lot of lost battles to win a war...

I will compare trading to playing sports. I was always good at sports because of natural ability to run, jump, throw, and strength, but when I competed with people who were trained and put lots of hours in...my lack of skills was obvious. It became frustrating to be outplayed by people I knew I...

Are we talking about most people are stupid at politics or just in general? I could go on and on about the flaws of human nature and that most people don't have the ability to think independently. I believe this is how I make a living in the markets. Maybe this will help...a small percentage of...

There's a lot of people (including myself) that became aware of all the political bullshit a long time ago and decided not to vote anymore. Many of these people are/were republican, but gave up on their party and secretly decided not to support a party...if someone asked...they said republican...

Just so you know, I'm not a republican. I believe all politicians are corrupt and part of a "club for members only". Isn't Donald the least "politician" of anybody left in the race? I think this political party crap is...well...CRAP! I have a feeling you want the Burn...he's just like Santa...

As I look further at this chart, it appears that a democratic senate and house mostly dominated during repub. presidents in office...except George W's term...which of course he had to fund a war on terror...and what about those checks he sent out to every American that works...is this a part of it?

If this is true, we have all the republicans year after year saying they want to cut spending on entitlements, but actually do the opposite. At the same time, the liberal democrats say year after year they want to increase entitlement spending, but actually don't do that either. So in...
