Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

As with all things RM - We see what we see
Food for Thought
Having an open mind is essential in trading â been stated here multiple times
However â To have a flexible mind â I believe â is an ultimate skill
Here are two examples (of the many I could chose)
A traderâs mind must be rigid with regard to protecting capital
A traderâs mind must be flexible with regard to market direction and whether it appropriate go long or short on any given trade
Another belief I hold is a person can only think of one thing at a timeâ¦.
(Try thinking of an orange and an elephant at the same time â I canât do it and Iâve been trying to figure out how for the last 10 years)
In the same manor â I do not believe a person can have a mindset that is both rigid and flexible at the same time
So we must develop the skill of instantly switching back and forth between rigid and flexible â without missing a beat

this thread is hilarious !!
We all see, what we want to see, and yet we can all make money.
There's not one way, but hundreds or even thousands.
Observe, apply, review
Observe, apply ,review
..........
It is your mind that will find a way, if it doesn't, then review what you're doing, you are stuck like a needle on the record... move on to the next.
(that would be your grey matter working)
Someone else's way will most likely NOT suit you!
Don't keep doing the same thing, and expect different results
( i know it has been said before by many others)
The edge is: opportunity for a great R/R
Ohh, and don't waste your time reading shoite like this!!

I may well do so MF, but I need to be careful, as I am nearly as "strange" as they are at this stage

Hello baron, my my you are very observant, and how accurate you are as well, but, it is a pity that you speak the minds of others, and not your own:eek:

Quote from quotetrader:
"At first glance, the Picasso painting;
Night Fishing in Antibes, 1939
looks like a total load of rubbish!"
Hmmm.. seems like you may have overlooked the obvious thing about Night Fishing in Antibes
which is that it is clearly a kick ass painting
..and hardly a load of rubbish
How observant QT, if we had a rib off the canvas we would probably not have to trade, ever

Thank you CS, you saved me form embarrassment, as I nearly said Syphilis
Other scholars regard him as a personification of waves rising and falling, or of the treacherous sea.

Did you come up with this yourself TH, or did you plagiarize
