Btw, Blue talking about "cycles in 3s", reminded me a lot of distant interesting times when a reasonably justifiable BIG inspiration, an idol or even a hero for some was still alive: url That "CaptainJack" truly became a legend (much bigger and ...

I agree about those being the best times of day to trade (around the start of the 2 most important sessions of 3). ... and about focusing in less assets/pairs... Good summary and suggestions! * yes BW, I continue "clouding" the thread, as everyone ...

Good. Although you need a MUCH bigger sample size (3 months minimum, 6 ideal) of testing the strategy day after day to have an idea... Best wishes for your trading entrepreneurship... One thing is for sure (well, almost): you will become better ...

Yes, modern Big Boys use AI/machine learning to exploit small and short lived market inefficiencies, but they are just other participants, often taking both sides of the trades around the spread. --- George is/was not a real trader, but somehow ...

BWilliam. What's up with your "subtle" (cheap) contrarian ad-hominem rhetoric? And yes, we could also chat by PM, but why there, if these things interest everyone? EDIT: For example, Andy encourages the use of "public space" for open discussion ...

Of course you're free. But no, it's more than just that, and it's obvious to some. You clearly don't have an answer; just nicely sounding smoke & mirrors. I thought you liked genuine debate and brainstorming, but at the end you show not different ...

Figured it out? Of course not; I would be richer. And I wouldn't pretend so, as some people do... No one completely "figures it out", but just parts, sometimes enough for specific market cycles, conditions or behaviors. I may know many things from ...

Lel. Why would you like to see yet another hindsight box? As well as you constantly write hundreds of post here (even many times being short replies split into different posts, instead of summarizing them in one... why? forum reputation?), I kindly ...

He's not "justifying", and why wouldn't he be relaxed. We're having a conversation. I question everything and tell what I think. You don't have to tell others how to behave as if you were the father guru...

Flying Dutchman

Everyone makes their their own illusion/simulation of physical "reality" (like a digital program [software], each mind/particular interpretation depends on hardware, from our brains to the external combinations of un-controlled variables); and the ...

Flying Dutchman

A combination of apophenia/pareidolia and self-fulfilling prophecies... No. Too simplistic. But maybe for taking action you don't need more that just an illusion aligning with a partial consensus of relative/subjective reality more often than not.

Lel. That wasn't the point of the message. I just wanted to state the obvious, what you celebrate with such cynicism; cause your behavior against some people who don't do this kind of shitty things to you, is annoying. What's your problem? Being a ...

OMG, maybe having two right hands is the secret --- EDIT: Well, on a more "serious" tone... As I am not someone who can remain silent about certain things, I will be the first to publicly say it, before ...

Again, I ask out of curiosity. There's nothing wrong with it, and it's more than only "claiming" for the sake of doing it. This time came towards Kevin, simply because he provided the last example I saw fitting with my thoughts about it. But hey, of ...

On behalf of me, or anyone who would like to see that kind of openness/transparency... It's simply something I've always thought to ask in general, but unfortunately regarded as annoying by most, often reacting defensively: "non of your business", ...

I understand the reason. I question it as an hypothetical, to have a better frame of reference for comparison to other markets, like FX and Index Futures, where the example of "5 hours - 5 days per week" as an average, can be more than enough. ...

Ok, smart thing to do. So yes, still filtering for the best conditions/opportunities, as I thought. Are your percentage increases shown here, on the account or per individual trade (used margin)? Also curious, what's your avg and max DD (on the ...
