@profitfarmer -- you may not realize it and I'm sure it's not your intent, but you just acknowledged that the reason why 99% of us failed is because we're not good enough -- we must all be idiots and failures. Going with your Olympics analogy -- if ...

@profitfarmer -- beautiful post. It's very late / early morning in the US Northwest and I'd like to acknowledge and respond. And there is no way I could do justice to what you wrote. So, please excuse me if I cut to the chase and address only a few ...

@moodybot -- good post -- thanks.

@parisboy -- finally!! You finally posted something I can understand.

@moodybot -- we've already spent 5 months shooting ourselves in the arse and going round and round in circles. And that's with your help. How could it get any worse?

I meant to acknowledge this comment -- but forgot. @moodybot -- you are right. This comes with old age and something you get to look forward to. I never used to blow-up -- always under control. But, now, I don't care so much. So, it is one of the ...

@moodybot -- what you say is fine. And even with additional details I could still be lost. I'm a rookie -- but I'm trying. But clearly you guys must see that something is not working -- I'm not the only one. I finally blurted out what everyone else ...

Okay -- this is probably going to blow up in my face but I've decided to go for it. There is this elephant in the room I've been ignoring and this evening I've received too many PMs. So, here goes... @moodybot -- with all due respect, sir, I'm going ...

@skyway -- hey bud, this is deja vu, yet again. A bit of drama never hurts but, golly, it's the same drama over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and ...

Hey @moodybot -- I was about to take my dog for a walk when your latest post flashed on my screen. I have not read the entire post carefully -- but when I read the last line then it did push a button. So, at the risk of making an ar5e of myself, I ...

Hi @moodybot -- I've re-read post #3709 and though I get the flavor, there are too many missing pieces. Also, some of the terminology is not clear to me. If only one sentence was unclear, then I could probably deduce the missing piece. But it's just ...

@skyway -- thanks for the post and link. I just revisited and reread @George's post and, to be honest, it's just way too abstract for me. Yep, he's giving general advice, but no direction. Let me put it to you this way. Suppose your boss gave you ...

@Nih98 -- beautiful results. Thanks for reminding us there is more than one way. And, yes, trust your dog the same way he/she trusts you. This "useless indicators" thing has sort of become a distraction. When someone says "indicators are useless" ...

@mixedbags -- you're fine and your posts are good -- thanks. Is anyone here familiar with the word "triage"? It is used in different contexts when a handful people come together in attempt to solve a problem or, at least, make sure they are on the ...

Hi @moodybot -- thanks for the pointer to @George's post #3709. I've seen it before and wrestled with it. I'll take a closer look. With regards to your comment about the thread being "cluttered with assumptions and speculations" -- that's not quite ...

Yes -- that is also what I understood him to mean. This average range in price may vary slightly depending on how many days are used for averaging. Using 20 days seems to be the default (i.e. past month). But some people also use weekly or yearly. ...

@TopCover -- thanks for your excellent posts. I need a little time to further digest the one with the charts. The charts are great and help to make things more clear. As to your questions -- please take my responses with a grain of salt: 1. You say ...

@RickM: "ADR is irrelevant" @George: All a trader needs is on the chart attached ,,, 1 = the ADR showing where the price is from the TOP,, or the BOTTOM at any given time of the day ,,, Okay -- all is now clear to me -- ADR is both necessary and ...

(binned per thread starter’s request) MM (Money Maker) Detective

Continuing from the previous post -- another thought occurred to me. I don't claim it's correct -- it's just a thought. @George and his colleagues keep beating the drum that indicators are useless (with the exception of ADR which, according to some ...
