Quote from jack hershey:
"
This is a big advance cfor you ... You are now networking with an introduction.
I appreciate the reference, more so that I can say it is from you, but not all are as helpful as you And the crew may have expectations.
If at all possible, it would be nice if you leave the offer on the table for when I am ready to accept it productively?
My mind, as you can see, is always opened (and unfocused) Your beemer rings a bell in my head of not too long ago, maybe I had ordered my cubicles from the same guy you ordered your desks from.
Lets have a look with an open mind...
You are telling me:
To understand I may have limited myself due to my environment..
To understand that, and accept what I cannot change
To look at what I can change keeping an open mind.
To understand there is another way which is controversial but not deduced.
Up to here I am fine. Adding to my library.
You are telling me to deduce/chuck my pitch forks and giving me a state of the art bow and arrow, even pointing me to somewhere that needs to be gone to before the shooting range.
You told me to keep an open mind, not to chuck but rather deduce.
A possible break up of traders could be :
45% Stay in the phase I am in and never commit to decide
45% Commit to decide a few times and run out of steam/money/
1 % Decide to commit and luckily fall upon the exact right thing to commit to.
3% Try and try and try and try till they find
3% Create from scratch and find it is better to ignore the questionable and reinvent the wheel as there is only few wheels.
Open mindedness is a key factor to success, though it is also seen in half of failures (above).
10% of failures are due to misinformation
50% of failures are due to lack of good information
50% of failures are due to improper use of information.
This is not normal. If I youtube how to make a "soda can alcohol stove"I will have a soda can alcohol stove in front of me (maybe with a few band aids) Ooda is not needed.
I am sure you understand that misinformation is not floating around to hurt people, it is there for other reasons.
Here we have a fork in the road.
one side is the stats side (I said to myself, lack of this is the reason for low success). It is backed by both marketing and other traders.
The other side is the scalping side. It is sold to the greedy quick buck guys usually early on in the learning process. However, it is also used in the prop world ((though they have their turnaround(ironically based on stats) and needs.))
How can one be deduced ? How can we assume any are good? how can we assume none are good ?
This is what goes on in my head. It is deducing time. and deduction starts with a plan and creation of an idea to deduce.
Money is Money. Warren Buffet, or some coke head (by no means do I mean you) it matters not. Each way is equal at this point. both have different cars but I go where the money is.
I am open as is needed.
If you saw what I drive today, you would know never to judge a man by his car. At face value there is a car or debt. An unreliable form of measure.
Luckily for me, I am lazy, I will sniff around and scroll through things reading here and there every time colour pops up. I end up looking at total pages it takes to explain something and ask myself if:
I can go through the information.
develop needed software and hardware.
cost of tools.
Time to learn and implement
I must deduce the simplest first as it seems faster that way. but more so, secretly, I hope simple and fast will prevail.
The reading involve in your idea is too much, add to that references you made to other books and information. Add to that all the posts.
I have in my hand a pitch fork and a bow. You say the bow is better. Its made of carbon fibre, laser scopes, heat sensing arrows and targets weakness in the market. Chances that I shoot one and it does a u-turn are high! I need the non self destruct system to be simple to learn, not perfect, just as long as the arrow don't kill me.
You spent time with me, I appreciate that, you taught me new ideas. But it is time for me to be honest and clear with you as you have been with me so that you can say your time was well spent. (which it was to me)
If I choose your route, I search your name. If I learn somewhere else without others help I will let you know and ask you where I should go to try the bow. It is only fare and expected, many may not understand but I do.
Those who ask why are blind to the what.
Your system is simple. The presentation is in a way keeps the reader hooked and opens their mind to create interest cause that is what is needed to most.
To an estimated 6 % of the population the presentation is too interesting and takes one on too inner tangents. (Have you seen the new bows and arrows out there? wow!)
I'm greedy, I like money, and I usually go get it in the trenches.
Again, it is hard to judge ones intentions, either way I think yours are good (even if you are just playing the probabilities). The "why" does not matter. But if I have miss judged I hope I have not let you down.
Its been fun, I hope to trade the Hershey way and have to drive to get to my mail box. More importantly, it would be nice to see that effort, begun to bring in results like it used to.
Hope you are in good health
