Zen, Yoga, Meditation and Trading

Since we're talking about meditation & the like, I want to ask if there are any good dvds regarding Tai Chi, possibly for absolute beginners like myself.
Thank you in advance.
 
Quote from Cutten:

But all human behaviour is based entirely on past events. Everything we know and have learned is based on how the world used to be. Science, technology, experience - all based on the past. All have so far worked very well for predicting the future.

Even with the flip of a coin, the probability is based entirely on past events. How do we know that in future, coins will not all land heads and we never see a tail again? We don't - we simply assume that it will continue like the past, and flip 50/50 over the long run. The same phenomenon applies in trading. If a certain market behaviour has in the past usually led to a certain outcome, then the odds bet is for that to happen the next time. There is no other way to trade. Every trader is making bets based on either opinions/hypotheses which are not tested against the past (i.e. random guessing), or ones that are. Thus all traders who have a system (including discretionary traders) are making the bet that the future will in some respect be meaningfully like the past.

That's one way of looking at trading but not the only way.

I prefer to look at it from the view point of a weatherman.

I can use the tools available to get a good ideal of the "current" (being the key word) market conditions and then dress appropriately for it.

Sure you will be wrong some days BUT it isn't going to go from summer to winter in 6 hours.
 
Quote from Dackster:

So this 'God', takes his own son out of heaven which is supposed to be quite a cushty place, and puts him on this rat infested planet as a 'gift'?

He lets his son get tortured by the Romans, who eventually nail his son to a f*cking cross?

This 'God' needs reporting for cruelty. Lock the sicko up.

What a father!

Your kinda missing the whole point.

Jesus Christ made a "choice" it was completely up to him and his Father is YOUR Father and he was my brother (on earth).

His sacrifice was so YOU don't have to live on this "rat infested planet" (as you put it).

Now the "choice" is yours!

you can choose to chase men / guru's that want to show you exercises and relaxation techniques so you can still your mind because your dopped out on your own endorfines lol ...... or you can simply ask Jesus Christ to come into your life and feel the greatest peace you will ever imagine.

Try trading from a view point that money doesn't matter and your skill is only a GOD given gift, it's nothing less then miraculous.

Glory be to GOD.

Guys you are welcome to start your own exchange punches thread in the all 'peaceful' Religion forum.....here..

http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=27.

This is the Psychology forum, and this thread is about sharing ideas about yoga and meditation.

Thanks.

Hey, you're right.

I knew this guy a while back, he'd been into trading for some years, he was a hopeless case. He couldn't identify entry, exit, he was hopeless at money management, he didn't have a clue.

One day he went to a yoga class, the next day a meditation class, on the third day he was trading like a wizard, he even dressed like a wizard, with a big pointed purple hat on, and a big flowing purple gown with silver stars on, and a stick-on white beard.

Here's to yoga and meditation.
