Yesterday was a rush for me. My goal was to have us finish the 10 days and from day 3 onward to overlap the debriefing so the contract level could be inserted in the logs as each one was finished by doing the remaining channels of each day.
I screwed up the check out of the posted trial debrief. I didn't check the net profit for the 3 contracts running on day 2. 61 points for 3 contracts is 183 and not 273. I was dragging and dropping numbers to spped up the process and I had added a column too. I put the wrong thing in the wrong place.
We will expand the debriefing to cover many other topics for the 10 days as the day goes by. WE will focus heavily on the stages of the channel cycle and also the places where, when looking at bar after bar by sliding the cover to the right, causes concerns and issues. Resolving the issues shows up in the "remarks column IF the data set taken in monitoring is sufficient.
Thw way to uncover insufficient data or illogical analysis is best done by having comprehensive log sheets following full annotation of each bar.
Full annotation will be a first recourse source of incomplete information.
We couldn't initiate two columns (overlap and volatility) after to general discussion of logging. We got columns ID'ed but not used. As you see additional information DID appear in places where the whipsaw trading appears. The first real money traded, as you remember was in a whipsaw orientation as well.
this is the evidence that a support person uses to learn from the learner most easily. BUT it is not what is important to concentrate upon alone. The most important thing is the process and that so far is greatly disguised by other priorities of the learner, namely being very neat and waiting until a tast is finaly complete insteast of posting partial efforts.
Working in this remote manner precipitates these constraints. As we put the 10 days in a package, I will try to cover about 50 items and get about 125 pages of copy up today. At this point I feel we wil have a first pass on beginner done in a marginal way.
Getting the logging to convert from a labratory log to a PV oriented log is difficult as we see. We are trying to switch from what happened to what is happening NOW. It is like moving slightly to the right in the commentary.
Our main benefit will be that we will .moreso, be on the right side of the market. The "chunking" is a very old pre ET topic as those who have used archives know. Anyone who has 10,000 pages of prints of posts has the chunking era in hand.
I feel the stages of the channel sequence are complete and well rounded "chunks". the whiposaw doesn't come up in chunking.
Here we see that some chinks are frazzled by fuzziness in the stage's "doing a chunk". Is there a chocolate candy called a "chunky? Or food? "let me have a chunk of peanut brittle or maybe that _______.
Stages have their own specific lives and when we are in one we don't whipsaw around in it.
Beginner is used to establish that CONTINUE in MODE is THE money making effort of SCT.
The space between stages has little money making possible during the existance of the space. we see about four spaces a day and we see each could be +/_ a bar thither or yon. This is four times a day when HOLD is not being done yet one more time.
What this means is I have to check for marginal performance on HOLDS as the day goes by. Since so far we can't do days, I have to wait until we get to that stage. When we do, then I will be looking for maintaining the quality of MADA as real time passes.
In early levels of trading precision doesn't matter since it does not affect making money. What does affect making money is following the routine and doing tasks corrctly. Our limitation here so far is my communicating a task in such a manner that an invention does not occur, a translation does not occur and an idea of doing it smarter does not occur. I am threading my way across a mine field so to speak.
Directions are made difficult because the words have different meanings to different people. I have to use the words and meanings the learner uses by going to where he is and bringing him along.
As we do drills I will figure out how many are required to lock up an idea. 10 is not enough so far.
