    Catching Tails

    I'm seeing a C wave coming and they are usually the same height as the A wave, in an up trend.

    If Wave and Gann Theories are just joke, why do we believe in other pattern?

    If I did, I would have had a back test. But since my original point was about the opportunities lost to such limits, would it seem logical that I have automated something that can't be proven to work?

    If Wave and Gann Theories are just joke, why do we believe in other pattern?

    I think he was the best, before the markets changed in 2000 and again in 2008. Even Bill Dunn (another trend follower with huge returns in his time) admitted to having to change his systems in after 2000 because the markets were not the same. I don't have the latest data, but Dunn's equity...

    If Wave and Gann Theories are just joke, why do we believe in other pattern?

    Elliot wave principle is the back bone of my discretionary trading. I consider it a huge advantage. My automated trend following systems are much less sophisticated, but trained on years of data. They are like insects compared to a ninja. But it takes years to become a master, while...

    If Wave and Gann Theories are just joke, why do we believe in other pattern?

    You sound just like Bwolinsky "If you can't back test it, it's not a method" It's OK to doubt everything. Just don't expect to do anything the herd already hasn't......

    I think it comes down to who is fearful and who is faithful. Fear creates tails, faith creates turning points. When the positions of the fearful expire, the faithful remain. The fearful are very proactive (using market and stop orders to push trends along), the faithful are inert...

    No love

    It could also be that some women just don't like you. They might prefer genuine characters who do not need to calculate their behavior.

    ...... if the originator did not doubt something you appear to be incapable of :eek:

    We need a statistics forum...

    Stats was my worst class. But what I do remember was that you need a known distribution to even calculate future confidence, based on a known population. So your question is unanswerable unless wild assumptions about the distribution are made. This is how LTCM quants proceeded with their...

    Why don’t they just pray the storm away?

    It's pretty clear you were not chosen to understand. I think you hate God for not giving you a perfect life.

    Journal XburbX - My Plan

    Thanks for that, RN. I've been beginning to wonder if that is how the game really works. These corrective patterns that drift lower (to pop stops of weak players), sometimes even spike violently down..... and then price hits a brick wall with huge volume, then gyrates inside a small box...

    Why don’t they just pray the storm away?

    "If God was all powerful, why does He allow bad things to happen"...... Humans like to think that The Infinite One shares their innate desire to control everything. But why would He be confined by the flaws of human nature? It may be that He desires for us to become like Him (creators...

    Same EXACT thing happened with my failed FAZ position, and BBG wouldn't have even hit my stop if I had just hung on. Here is my #1 problem.

    Catching Tails

    Good evening, Elite Liquidity Providers. Here is my error summary for the week. I'd be chewing myself out in my office, if I were my employee, so here it is. Three losses & one B/E. Each loss happened when the position got sucked into my (tight) stops as The Market pulled back...

    Forget moons, sunspots are where it's at, y0. Might as well check the elliptical orbit of the planet Pluto for its minima and maxima..... they may correlate with something
