Stopped in to check the thread this morning and three pages already. Thanks folks And btw, this is not a Hershey for Dummies thread... it is like a Hershey for Dummies thread
The following could be taken the reason I started this thread...

But it is NOT the reason for starting this thread. Granted, having current definitions and their contexts all in one place would be great. However I started this thread on the possibility that someone has a slightly different way of describing it. The 'elders' on Hershey may generously say it all again, but I still might not get it as a whole after a hundred readings!
So the request for a plain English / alternate perspective of the basic constructs of the âHersheyâ still resonates. Students telling me to study and study the volumes of content and illustrations published is a rehash of the âfirst mantra of obtusingâ seen from the center and from adherents in many posts already â¦
Once I understand the constructs, then the onus IS entirely on me to dig back through all the posts and illustrations
This is not a judgment of their styles or personalities or a discounting of my own. From someone who is not on the same wavelength exactly but sees the merits of coming to an understanding of what âtheyâ are seeing and saying, it is simply a request for a translation.
So I doubt my answers will come from the âeldersâ of âHersheyâ. I think my answers will come from those who are blessed to understand what âtheyâ are getting at in their posts, but also have a way of describing it from another aspect. If you can provide alternative explanations of the basic constructs of âHersheyâ it would be greatly appreciated. Then I can go into the generous contributions of the original proponents and begin to dig
Your first step in the process is to deal with the difference between "transfering" and "translating".
So you have a dilemma. The people who have done the work of transference did not go through a "translating" process.
Most who look at the paradigm reject it. Trader zones is an example of the rejection process. He follows the CW. You either drop the CW or quit the transference process.
You are in the process of quitting as you first create a dilemma.
When I suggest trading is like driving a car, some people reflect on how they learned to drive a car. Naturally, you will ask other students who learned in driving school for a translation, through their eyes, rather than your going to the driving school. You believe that you learned to drive by not going to driving school and that the higher cost of insurance is trivial. Good for you.
Here is the thing. we suggest that learning to learn is a critical thinking process. you probably feel by demonstrating you are not thinking critically, you get a jump start on not learning SCT. Let me confirm to you that you have achieved the jump start on not learning SCT. You are now at minus three.
When you skipped thinking about why and how we introduced SCT to those who wanted to learn to learn and learn to trade, you turned to inventing another learning approach instead. trader zones can tell you exactly what it is like to opoerate as a person who is smarter than what he is skipping learning about.
TZ needs, from anyone, PROOF on his terms (which are simply the sales tools ways of getting customers in platforms, software, brokerages, funds and mutual funds.
the current vogue of Anything for Dummies is a great marketing gimmick. Cliff Notes took care of business for some kinds of students as well.

I am the last person to help you out, as you say. Thank you.
