    $17 mm? You are really funny. Of course algos are responding and adjusting. But if you were trading $17 mm on brownian, noise, and randomness (which I doubt) and price dropped I don’t care if bids were backing away or orders adjusting. Algos were exiting. And that shows up on a chart. 5 min or...

    This is my last chart in Padu's thread today. DO YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENED? Read my last sentence of the second to last paragraph in my post #1152 above. Forgive me padu. I just can't help myself I guess. I really could I suppose, but I have been having fun with mr longandshort but I will stop...

    Look longandshort you have pissed off padutrader. Any time his text gets larger and larger and red he is pissed. You may need to go somewhere else and take a dump with your brownian crap and randomness BS. Nevertheless, I enjoyed MOST of the conversation. Good day.

    Must I school you? If you will look at a chart and OBSERVE you will "see." But first get any birdsh$t out of your eyes. Anytime price tries to go out of a channel (top or bottom 1/3 to 1/4 area) that is a BO attempt by the bulls and bears. Most fail. BY far. That is precisely why the channel...

    Remember that last paragraph of my post #1137 where I talk about being cognizant of a BO and having a tactic to implement if one is caught on the wrong side when the BO occurs. Here is a live example. Same instrument trade live this morning. I was using a technique I call fill the gap that...

    Now see, because of all my typing, I failed to see or fade the move to the top (bar 9:25 and 9:30) and short for another few points on bar 9:30 and 9:35. Atoms jiggling THE molecule. LOL

    Here is an example of trading a broad bull (i.e. on 5m 24 hr chart ES/MES) channel taken this morning live. Right at the open we get two consecutive bull bars going to the top 1/4 of the slightly sloped bull channel drawn in the overnight session. A novice is gonna go long ...thinking BO. Two...

    You may stay in your fantasy world of EMH, random walk, Brownian random jiggles, chasing those random molecule movements from the atoms colliding with them..LOL OR YOU CAN CHANGE. I, for one will stick with real world trading ideas that Mr. B and others espouse, observed, set forth, and which...

    Did you say opportunities present themselves across all time frames? Wow! So 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, weekly, monthly, yearly? All that is needed are the skills and tools to analyze them and capitalize on them? May I postulate that Mr B does exactly that. He teaches the tools and skills. ROFLMAO.

    Um he doesn’t think he has an edge HE KNOWS. Since it is padutraders thread and he occasionally types in big red letters to emphasize I will take the liberty to do so also!

    Please answer my question in my post #1106? Why would one institution sell and the other buy? I don’t give a sh$t if they ARE looking OR NOT looking at 5m charts, weekly charts, monthly, or yearly charts. Why is one selling and the other buying? Did one screw up TCA, misread volatility...

    Lol …..well I confess I do extract information from the candles. Maybe information others don't have?….Inside info…i.e. inside the candle ROFLMAO. Now I am sounding like a jigsaw trader of which I am not. Ok lets say you are right that all candles are made up of randomness and therefore...

    Look do you think GS would sell 500 ES contracts to another institution (even if they bust it up with algos into 1 or 3 lot sizes)? If so, why did they sell and why did the other buy?

    Tca may result in investors being bullish or setting bullish goals or bearish goals but the only thing I am interested in is the action they take and how it affects the market and that action and its effect will show up in the charts. I only care about “what” price does and “how” it does...

    TCA means little to me for scalping purposes. Whatever they do with their transaction cost analysis i.e. whatever action they take will show up in the charts. I don’t care one iota about news events, either. Nor do I care what the Fed does or their words. All these things can have either a...

    You are sounding more and more like a hybrid cross between Grady and Taleb.

    Nobody said they were trading per candle. But their trading is graphically represented by price bars. They cannot hide their true intentions for long. Do you know why in one session the entire session is a grind up and not down? If you don’t understand that there are buyers and sellers...

    I will watch your video when I get time. But anything labeled “The Only Game in Town” is suspect and is waving a red flag violently back and forth. I suspect it will say the market has “noise” and deal with that noise issue. If so, I would disagree with that concept. There is no noise. If it...

    Of course. Like I said already buyers and sellers on every bar. One side wins for a while then the other. Direction, volatility, momentum, and volume are clues to which side is winning at the moment. So you are saying bullish institutions don’t move price? They may move it up to make a...
