Do Trendlines work?

Grob109

Jack I know your setup by heart but am wondering if you have ever experimented with tick charts? I have been working with them since the Prof got me interested and when you find the right fractal they form some beautiful channels. Much cleaner than time charts. I monitor volume on a separate chart. I am beginning to think a person can trade off trendlines alone.
 
ET abwhores a vacuum. Therefore absent a totally OT response by Jack, I shall respond. You see bitchin' channels on a one second chart, which might as well be a tick chart. If there were no spread (unlike as in sex, the spread is NOT good), and if those runs lasted more than 8 ticks, you could make beaucoup d'argent off of them. Alas, they are only good for tick fucking. Ask your girlfriend how many mini-orgasms it takes to equal a real screamer. It is a gender question. If you can only get it off once, don't tick fuck. Otherwise, by all means, enjoy.

LOL. Channels on a one second chart? Thats microtrading beyond even the master. I was just trying to get a rise out of the old man but I guess hes too busy. I have been experimenting with 150 and 300 tick charts on ES and they seem to eliminate some of the noise but as to whether theres any real advantage still remains to be seen. Ive got going with trend down pretty good but am still unable to come up with a viable countertrend/reversal strategy so I keep experimenting. I think the answer, for me, lies in the trendline/channel breaks but it still eludes me.

So at this point we are starting with an empty container that has an unlimited capacity to hold stuff. We are also building a very slick and extremely fast way to make use of the contents we are going to put in the container.

Routing stuff into the container is automatic. And presently your mind has a way to do the routing, turn on and off the collection process and the locate the material at any time necessary.

There is one downside and you see it exhibited in ET a lot. I want to not have you experiencing any of this side trip, ever. As you complete all the reading I assigned to you so far get the drill straight on limbic stress. Just write in a post (not a "response") that you finished reading each of the books the day you finish.

If you are running even with me, then use this generation (See below) breakdown to create a list of "what exists for you" under x, y, and z and A, B, and C. "what exists for you" for now may be stuff that you have in piles here and there. And there may be things less formally identifyable. Get a package of 8 1/2 by 11 yellow pads and some boxes of three cut file folders and 12 whisky boxes and a box cutter. Do this, as you ID everything while making up the genreration breakdown, type it on a list to post here and write it on the item or if it is just not that formal, write it on the top of a yellow sheet. Place the items in common files and put common files in boxes. Use two whisky boxes per first digit and spread the L, M and H from front to back of the respective boxes. You have no H as yet; we will get another 12 boxes for that part of it.

Use as first digit the x, y, z, and A, B, and C. Let the risk level of the topic be expressed as the second digit (use L, M and H for low medium and high, respectively), let , in order of importance the next four levels of topics be: 1, a, (10, and (a). Think of it as indenting if you were never in the military and using parts generation breakdowns. Do not do anymore than add a name after the generation breakdown ID.

You are very lucky I did not ask you to do a search on each thing I have written on this year by year since 1957. If I had, then you would have to put it in the boxes. Don't worry it is already done at several universities.

The above exercise is a routing exercise where you will find out about how your mind controls your senses.

So the first and primal step in trading is to get your mind to control your senses properly. That comes next.

OK GROB, I am asking for some clarification please... I saw M0z's post but had some differences as to the items he ID'd as low risk. Nothing in this post is a response. No facial expressions or head gestures either :cool:.

Picking up from our super in-person one-on-one/two meeting last week, which I again thank you for, and continuing the construction of this process, I have had the above containers organized across my home office floor, my girlfriend doesn't appreciate my initiative on this PROCESS construction effort but she's SOL. I am struggling a bit in the x, y, z, A, B, C against L, M risk identification and am trying to make sure I don't reach a frustration point... In one of your earlier posts, the definition for x was stated as a "knowing how to know" (text a few of us including myself have completed reading) and "not as an absolute statement that is intended to convey to others an absolute rigid defining descriptor". Judging by the fact that I said very few words in our several hour meeting, presumably, you know exactly how to provide the furthur clarity I am kindly asking for.

Kindest Regards,
Mak...
