Quote from TraderD:

nyse,

Where the charts posted vertically on purpose?

Is 90/10 ratio between BLASH and BHASH dictated by the market? How, if ever, situations are handled where ratio is different?

Does BLASH always lead to BHASH?

Do you use PNF charts to estimate risk/reward or manage risk?

Thank you.

You can if you like!

Does the obvious involve volatility and relative value?

I heard it said that it is very hard to stop a milktruck - is that true

It must involve volatility, as volatility is nothing more than price movement in one direction, and then again in the opposite direction!

As for relative value, I doubt if anyone knows what it means in this day and age

What the hell does someone know, who has never experienced the reality of the situation, know about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahhh, I thought I recognized a bit of the Socratic Method in your style NYSE. And of course you are right, “What the hell does someone know, who has never experienced the reality of the situation”. However, with your focus on ‘Mr. Bud’, might I rephrase my larger point.

A trader must ‘OWN’ the methodology, plan or system they employ. You can read book after book or ET thread after thread, but if one does not embrace an approach to the market that is right for their individual psyche, lifestyle, or long-term goals, they will fail again and again. The ‘holy grail’ of trading can be dumped in one’s lap but if they are a scalper with the disposition of an investor, or a daytrader who hates risk, it will not matter.
