Before clicking on this thread, I thought that the trading secret of this thread would be something like "the study of trading and negative-sums"

you should ask Martin Armstrong about the importance of Time, his Economic Confidence Model is dead on, never seen anything like that

Quote from Mr Super Trader:

I like to say if I am trying to go up in an elevator and it's not moving I am going to get out and find one that's going up.

Well said!

I thought I was going to read about the trading version of TOE (Theory of Everything).

Quote from Optionpro007:

Depending on the system you are using.

Interesting comment. Could you clarify this comment.

Are you talking about the specific back-tested system? Are you talking about the taxonomy of system methods? Are you talking about your own trading? Or something else?

Quote from Xspurt:

FWIW, time is indeed the key - but not if you only use linear time.

I can't see any difference in long and short opportunities. I like shorts because when the party is over they move fastest, but I have no trading preference.

Bingo!

Let that geometry play out; then flip the bitch (to turn a phrase).

Heres a time rule for you guys at the moment...

We have another week and a half for this June rally to play out. If we make some serious gains extend it's duration another week.

It just depends upon how far we make it to the upside and how fast. The faster and farther we reach the more emotional reinforcement price will give people to keep on buying. If we go mostly sideways and chop around 1350 like I expect... Prepare for the summer crash!
