To be clear, with no fear
Is to see, what will be
To think you will win
Is indeed a grave sin![]()
So lose when you must
And shake off the dust
For the next time, you see
What will be, well, will be![]()

Quote from trackstar:
You know what to see, so you know more than me
I know how to bet, to keep the odds best
I see what was there, after the betting took care
But to know what will be, is for the gods not me
I'm just ready to act, at the drop of a hat
Move with the flow, means not to be slow

This thread is a SERIOUS thread for those who are interested in discussing how Education and "Other Things" are not conducive to effective and profitable trading.
Please join in only if you are REALLY interested, as, such a radical way of thinking may not suit most.

Quote from amplituda:
Some educational subjects are critical in trading. Math and probability in specifics surely would help to build the ground.
Self education and ability to improve one by research test and practice in one or another subject is also very important. In other words finding a simple solution(s) in a complex environment is something that can make a difference.
Ability to rime a poem doesn't help much in trading even though it can be entertaining.
By the way, I enjoyed your previous threads and want to thank you for that. I'm still puzzled if YOU really understand 'Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious? '.
Best wishes,

CW, you are free to post what you want anywhere, for, there is no such thing as the right or wrong thing, as, things are what they are and will be what they will be.
Indeed, one should never let others prevent them from doing what it is they choose to do. However, disruptors benefit nobody, and as courtesy costs nothing, it is surprising that so few are willing to spare it.
Personally, I think the ROT, Golden Ratio, Law of Seven, and what ever others are there, of which I guess they are many, well, are just rubbish:eek:
Agreed. I was going to elaborate my intended point further, but the moment has passed. I will try to keep up next time.
The only thing that we know, is that we know absolutely nothing![]()
Of course, we all know something, but you know, that when we speak of "knowing nothing", we are really speaking about continually learning, each and every minute of the day.
One of the very resons I specifically chose my handle. A constant reminder to myself that there are things I must do everyday to reach the goals I have set.
Last year, a Swallow (well, 2 actually) decided to nest in my boilerhouse, as I was silly enough to leave the door open, so, the nest was just above my head and I could easily see the eggs in the nest.
I put in a camera to watch the bird. It was amazing to see the care the Swallow took in turning the eggs, and how she would never be gone for too long.
The biggest surprise, after hatching, was how fast the little birds grew. From tiny funny looking things with no eyes and big mouths, to beautiful young birds eager to jump out of the nest for the first time. It was a very nice thing to see over te weeks I watched them develop and eventually fly out and learn from the parents how to maneuver and feed![]()
Sometimes we can learn a lot from things we would never think of looking at.
While walking in the country this week. We observed all kinds of animals going about their day. This led to a very robust discussion on the importance of knowing what one is going to do before one does it.
