Thank you much for the clarification and insights Mak! Sometimes I have to wonder if all of my beginner questions tends to make the pros just roll their eyes in frustration. 
I'm hoping that at some point I can grok enough where I can actually start helping and supporting others - without fear that I will steer someone wrong.
You, Jack, Easy, BA, Icarus - and the rest - have all been inspirational in your efforts to help people. It's great to watch people build others up instead of tearing them down.
Hey - if I can't draw the charts or offer advice yet, I can cheerlead, right?
Everyone is a peer of everyone else. What makes the path work best is having all kinds of people contributing from assorted experience and vantage points. This is the equalizer: strong contributing efforts from differing places.
What really deepens a persons strengths is passing on stuff to others and the concurrent self asessment.
We are, in fact, looking deeply into the efficacy of the aspects of the projected channels. The trendline is there on all of the durations and it does reflect (give you a view of) the sentiment of the active players. The nature of opposing views of everything but the common view of a price to allow a transaction is embodied in the dynamic change of the trendline over time. Meaning that the collective progress of the market is in effect until the spell is broken. Spell means the collective consideration of the climate and environment. Active players play in concert not in chaos. The four modes of trading (we, as the frontrunner component) form the dynamic chemical balance of the mix.
A MLR line is not at the "side" of the market range. The trendline vectors for us from a side that is special be it a resistance or support type flavor. trendlines represent the "best entry at any moment value" for making money. That is a special value at that moment.
Likewise, at any moment, we can view the "potential" of the market to deliver a cycle of profit. That is, the left channel line that is attained (built geometrically by annotation) according to the contemporary volatility. For making money we use volatility as a one way street. We are headed for a reversal on the left channel line. You are witnessing persons recognizing readily when the left channel line is giving an exit signal. As volatility declines after this point of the long diagonal of the parallelogram is reached, we know that an FTT is in the wind before the FTT even occurs.
So we see most channels we project actually widen before the end of the channel. If the intial volatility of the channel is not maintained the channel will end.
So what has finally come into the picture. When a challenge comes into the space, a person says "I see it". They then get to consider it. In these days it has happened.
What happens when we go on to consider another aspect of expertise? All of the former pieces fall, better, into place. In fact, they seem more and more common place.
Here are the two streams of thought in the place now.
Look at the elements we display on the CRT's and with purpose sweeping them sequentially to attain sufficiency and then going through the analysis, decision making and action three remaining steps of the four steps. By honing the "interrelationships' of the subdata sets, we see that their relative importance waxes and wains over time. WE ARE FOCUSSED.
Secondly, the boundaries projected are being put through a mental drill whereby we are getting their significance well understood (a knowledge function). so more and deeper truths are falling into line.
I mean, you say in print, that the price has hugged that boundary for TEN minutes. You are feeling and hearing the melody of the market...you are in tune with the market...it at last has a time constant and it reverberates, is absorbed, diffused and reflected within its spacial constraints.
So now we are going to begin to OPTIMIZE. Smile.....
To repeat the above otherwise......you discuss "anticipation and how to even create anticipation. You KNOW all roads lead to BO..
You see distant boundaries coe into view because you drew them to allow them to come into view.
Fortunately you will also notice that my yping and articulation is getting much better....alazz. you are getting nearer to where I want you to dwell and it is where I am usually. It will be easier for me to talk to you.
Soon Mak and I will get together..in real time as he says....
Optimizing is using sports memory to really deal in the modus of knowing to go based upon sufficiency. It is not thinking that you have memorized a bunch of sequences and you have the right to predict or guess.
It IS the supreme feeling of using the four steps in a staccatto modus where each operation is complete and exquisite and you can cycle the four steps MUCH FASTER THAN THE MAREKET IS OPERATING.
It only took two years in ET to get to this place.
In your minds has been built the market matrix. You see that the sequences inexitably lead to the BO cells in the matrix under all market paces and volatilities. It is exident that paths are blocked one after another posibility until only one remains. Unblocked operating points are seen as repitiious gaussians rolling along in a strong volume high/ow range that simply sustains a theme.
What is optimization?
It is the non hold (non continue) part of trading. We will be splicing into our longer hold periods some pairs of reversals to pick off a few more ticks and points. Also we will be focussing on when two channel trendlines are becoming concurrent as the time to hit a few home runs. your prints change in character. they are longer on a day and they have more than one mode of profit value. Usually two modes for the time being.
What happens to people who are still on a rapid track for learning? They should know that they will not be denied any help simply because the response that will come is also gluing the Responder's knowledge, skills and expereince tighter together. for the software programmers who love to build mechanical packages, this episode is nirvana at long last, if they have given up the edge bullshit by now.
My definition of optimizing is moving to a higher money velocity. It is after burner time. Afterburners are either on or off.
Since our focus is on "end effects", i. e., change part of the P, V relation, we are going to dance right on through coarse and medium when it is called for. mark what paths on the sweep chart most rapidly get youto fine. We insist on going through the path and NOT just hanging around in fine all the time. Get it straight there are many many times when you CANNOT get to fine.
So this ought to be fun.
Our staff is coping well; we have effectively moved everyone up a level of responsibility and those who are petitioning the corp are required to get the prep done for us nowadays. We moved the seminar size up a nitch frrom 40 to 200. Tomorrow is our first dual 200 seminar day.
Per week we are adding prospect rosters at the first projected annual rate of business. What it looks like is two or three support people adding names at computers full time. I was granted an evening off....lol..
Selling health protect in a pre-pandemic mode is something else. Actually, the focus is turning the RXxof the gov over to the private sector.
Print this post and high lite it. Holding was the theme for continuing to make money now we are going to build on the change half of the deal.
