These are the commands you will need when you want a specific command to execute, only when certain conditions are met. In case you don't understand the table, here is a simplified version.
AND
OR
XOR
NOT
NAND
NOR
XNOR Both have to be true
At least one has to be true
Only one must be true (Exclusive OR)
Makes a true a false and vise versa
At least one has to be false (NOT AND)
Both have to be false (NOT OR)
Both have to be false or true (NOT EXCLUSIVE OR)

Quote from makosgu:

Price Up ...

2 more cents:

Price can be Large Up, Medium Up, Small Up, Unchanged, Small Down, Medium Down, Large Down, etc.

Many times, an Unchanged price could be effectively an Up in one case, but a Down another case. (Then what is a real/ true Unchanged, or not?)

Etc.

Etc.

Great annotation on chart.

Your table did not reflect that.

As you see in the recent post, possibilities represent simple "AND" combinations of things taken three at a time.

The scoring is just a way of considering how people work the market.

It turns out that for every sector you can see the human psychology at work.

As you read ET posts you can see in them where various people screw up in how they view the cycle of activity.

Most people do not see the subtle difference of a long trend compared to a short trend. You can see it from the scoring. by now.

Do you now see where early exits come from?

Can you see how traverses within long and short channels come into being?

Do you see why there are usually a limited numbers of traverses in a trend channel?

If you use periodic functions and apply biased carriers (like a MLR line) that is intermediate term compared to this short term cycle, you can see how the harmonics dominate/contribute in many ways. (head and shoulders and double tops and bottoms).

If you add long term conditions to the mix mentally other facets will pop into view s well.


Anyway all of this level stuff can be processed mentally and later on the bicycle riding of trading begins to appear. You can read posts in ET to determine if a given poster has made it to a "sports memory" level of trading. There usually are wisps of confidence and low emotional content.

Fear in posts comes from a person using an algorithm for the market that is ill conceived and believed. Reinforcing repeated failure is the result.

Sorry this didn't get off the ground maths wise. I just felt that using a type of math that simply and comprehensively describes the market and leads to the P, V relation might be sensible.

It is definitely an antidote to the macro malaise.

Micro works best for people. By choosing a high beta range of equities and concurrent top quality, you have a subset that is anomoly free and has a high frequency very reliable cycle. use a 10% net turn every 6 or 7 days as a standard. With a 100K share max as 10% of daily volume you can pull out the price of something you need/want fairly often. The 3x(H-L) standard means you can run along financing your budgetary needs after a minimumstart up of 60 days or so. Think micro and living really comfortably. You can focus on a few sidelines like supporting 501 C 3's and doing things you like.

Quote from Grob109:

I looked at your list and it is not correct. I guess it is difficult to get the idea of a cycle straight.

The graphic posted is a good example of what I meant to convey.

You can see here that the detractors are giving a fairlyconsistent view of where they are coming from also. I'm a bad guy it turns out for them.

I attached the table of the combinations and permutations of three variables. Each variable stands alone and can be looked at a a measure of something. you are stating a lot of things that you have thought up and that is fine. It jst goes to show how when two people look at something they see different things happening.

At this point it is being suggested that this thread is about mathematics and I am off topic. Naturally the trading cycle and characterising it with binary values is not math to that person. that is how some minds work as well.

Check out the list and see if it means anything to you about combinations and permutaions.

I gave a 1 to increasing and A and a 0 to decreasing and D.

This is a description of the dynamic of the market possible conditions at any given time. What is not included are the times when no money is being made.

My apologies to the initiator of this thread. I invite all those interested to respectfully join me in the following thread which I have initiated http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=46628. Grob109, I would be exceedingly delighted in furthur commentary to pertaining the hazards of various vantage point within the aforementioned forums. I believe in working towards a holistic vantage point. I am very enticed by what you have to say. I don't mean any disrespect to the initiator of this thread and will respectfully seek discussion and post responses to all the above posts at the link above.

I'm beginning to think it's the same person posting back and forth asking questions and answering them himself. Does anyone have a clue what this back and forth banter is all about? All I could manage to comprehend is it's about cycles.

Don't you think that's quite normal on ET (for so many potential vendors?)?

Or not normal? LOL

Although (in the past) I have been accused of being an alias of Mr. Hershey, I assure you (whatever that is worth on an anonymous BBS), Jack and G33M4K are entirely two separate individuals.
