Market Statistics & Probabilities (requests welcome)

Sounds reasonable. Gravity is like proprioception, as in following the price on its rolling path. It'd likely be just as important as viewing the screen and considering whether to 'touch' (change) a trade. The gravity of other planets and stars is ...

Thinking Outside the Box!?!

The 10K cliche and psychology are two different things. While 10k gives you an intuition-sure ability for a trade, psychology can instantly replace it with that of a 400:1 NFP-only (hey, it moves!) discretionary bucketshop (why me?) scalper. Which I ...

This makes sense to me -- image image image image image image image Post #216 also makes sense. I can see how you match net trend angle between the vertical lines of the Fib Time Zones, the earlier lines getting at least a visually ...

The Element of Time in Trading

You can replicate much of live's psychology in demo, with practice. Why invoke taxes? There's a world of room in paper, simulator and demo to hone one's technical edge before testing with pennies.

I didn't. Interesting idea. Then if there's a light dip then the same up-wave in EURUSD from 5 to 7 am EST today, only a side run then a large up-wave in EURGBP, there's more money going into USD than GBP. Thus, one may conclude without looking that ...

Why Is Price Doing What It's Doing?

Great image, had to laugh. It's better than: It's like play money, who cares? (That would be Canadian money. (Kidding: The colors....)) The one or so times I played, poker has a similar feel to it, since, I guess, you exchange the bills on a single ...
