Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

I have read thru some of the recent and distant posts in this section, and have come to the conclusion that; the obvious is not so obvious to many!

There appears to be a lot of textbook information being thrown around, especially in relation to position sizing and risk management.

What every trader has to realise, is that all the risk management and position sizing techniques in the world are of no use what so ever, unless the trader is aware of the obvious pre-requisite to trading any market.

It will be very interesting to see what answers the many traders come up with for the obvious, those with little and lots of experience alike!

Before I read on and look up some additional posts, I can see that the OP stated specifically a few things that should be noted when discussing the topic.

1. The obvious is not so obvious to many.
2. The trader needs to be aware of the obvious pre-requisite to trading any market.

Interesting!

Oh yes RN - you see, many think that traders who make money never lose:eek:

It is only when a trader HAS lost big money does he/she become a better trader - aka, experience!

This one you will like, I think:D

Here is an image of a process that works - in order to open the file, one must first come up with the "password".

If someone wants to alter, or print the document, then they must come up with another password:D

Sure if I just gave everyone the document outright, I would be acknowledging that they are unable to think, and that is a very rude thing to do!

I picked the 50th post and came up with this. I can now see why some people were upset as it is doing my head in trying to guess the password. Did anyone guess this or crack it to save me the trouble?

It might give some insight into what the OP meant?

Hi Redneck I have been wondering what happened to NY... now I know! I have learnt a lot from this thread and every time I go back and browse through it I understand something I did not understand the previous time and for me this is a clear sign that i am progressing!

well, fortunately you have not been banned so I can read and learn from your posts!
Thanks!

you are taking it in literal sense. how about like this, can there be a password for the markets? if there is what can that be?

Probably. Sounds plauisble.
MInd you, since the OP never actually said 'what' the 'obvious' was etc etc, those stock charts might have nothing at all to do with what he was driving at at all.
Everyone was just guessing.
Even those who think they know what he was saying in his poems and riddles probably don't.
