This has been on my mind today and I want to comment
====================
Its taken a lot of work to get you back to the basics (fundamentals if you will)
Patience..., Routine..., Discipline
To remain successful - means never losing sight of these
I have lost sight a couple of times...
My swag
swag - acronym for Scientific Wild Ass Guess
What ever the announcement - drive price down (scaring out the weak & meek).., buy it.., drive back up into the EOM / EOQ
My plan - trade accordingly no matter what
RN
Yes it should..., but never underestimate a human's ability to fuck up an anvil..., or that life happens..., as does shtf
Be sure to always check yourself at the door - before entering the arena
And periodically..., while therein
RN
Can't ask for better Sir
Now..., let's do'er again today
===============
Any reason to assume the environment (mkt's behavior over the last few weeks) has changed
Not yet
RN
Not necessary to overcome them (conquer if you will)
Rather come to terms with them (become at peace with)..., so you're able to properly operate in spite of whatever issue(s) present
================
Know this Sir;
We all have issues / beliefs / crap - that exists / periodically pops up -...
It not brooks..., he the simply the default whipping boy of the day
====================
There a faction on this forum who simply can't stand to see people trying / working through it / getting it / succeeding
They can't trade - so no one can - and they'll do their damndest to derail any...
My first answer; no clue to what he does / does not do..., or what substantial size is for brooks
More specifically to your point;
I does not matter..., because;
Do you trade exactly like brooks
Do you have the same amount in your account as brooks
And most importantly...,
Do you handle /...
Good thinking WJK
====================================
Any one wanting to trade like brooks..., or any other trader for that matter - is a pure idiot
Take what is shared..., from who ever shares it - make it your own
If you find it useless - discard and move on
RN
Yup..., once I shared it was possible - she figured it out
Learn to manage each losing trade - and take each valid signal - the day's PNL will take care of itself
No need..., but then one need to know how to trade to understand why not
RN
Morning J,
Been more than a week since you last traded
If you plan on dipping your toe back in via SIM-ing..., perfect
If you plan on dipping your toe back in via jumping straight away into the deep end - be mindful it fraught with predators
Use today to appropriately prepare yourself...
Alpha
One additional note
Sometime those "zones" are purposely engineered - to later come back and take advantage of
Liquidity..., and price improvement - all for the taking
(Ain't this gig a real hoot)
