Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

1. What can I ask to guide myself to the answer?

2. If I knew what the obvious was could I code it (given that I have the skills to code any quantifiable)?

3. Your BLASH statements mean that you "fade" most of the time and take BO trades a small % of the time correct?
 
Quote from NERVESASTEEL:

The first rule of waves, especially in the open ocean, is that there are no rules. Waves take their time to develop; they don't spontaneously erupt from the ocean. In reality, alternating weather patterns, varying water depths, opposing currents, fetch obstruction and a multitude of other factors may change the way waves in a particular area react.

However, as a wave comes closer to shore it begins to break as its base can no longer support its top. Predicably, it collapses when the slope, or steepness ratio, is too extended.

To experience the greatest impact of a breaking wave, one must postion themselves in the trough where the water is most shallow due to the greater volume having been temporarily pulled into the crest.
:cool:

This is one of the big misconceptions of trading!

You do not position yourself anywhere where you might drown!

Always keep one foot on dry land, just in case you might slip into the deep end that you could not see, unless you are a fish of course :D
 
my mentor ivanovich taught me that trading is super easy and fast and that making mony is only if you buy and goes up

and you sell and goes down, super fast and easy

1. Only you can decide what you think and do!

2. No - no computer will ever replace the intricate workings of the human brain!

3. Buy Low And Sell High means exactly that - as do the other abbreviations. If you want to try and fade the market you are then putting yourself in a very risky position - which can be a very sad thing to do at the best of times! Fading might seem Ok if you trade a few hundred shares, but when you trade thousands of shares you can get a big surprise that will quickly show you the value of understanding what gambling is all about!

Do you not understand English!

Evidently not. I suck. Sorry.

But I believe in the concept that you could publish the most profitable system ever, in the Wall street Journal, and most people would read it, but still fuck it up somehow.

Therefore, I don't necessarily challenge you to post stuff every day.

Just post a couple days, dude.

If this is unacceptable, well, I understand.

Firstly, I am not a dude!

Secondly, I do not like repeating myself!

Thirdly, when I say something I mean it, and I never let others change my mind for me!

Lastly, you can post per topic if you like, if not you are free to go and hang as many wallpapers as you like, but not in this room please!
