Oh. Interesting. I actually think of order flow as "the stuff going on in the empty (white) space". One of my unofficial mentors taught me to think in those terms/incentives. (man, finally this thread is awake. I was wondering all mornin' where ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Great question. Can the subconsc mind be trained? I'm sure it can. So far, in my study/search (k, I'm a really curious bloke. I like to know how and why stuff works. some say it's a talent, I think it's OCD. ), 3 things have come up. (1) Your ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Sounds like you're doing great mate. =) I begin to see things in %s now. So 50pips can yield more than 100pips in that sense. Depends on your initial risk. Came from asking myself, "what does the exponential function mean?" Yeah. I got freakin' OCD. ...

Yes Mike, definitely so. After understanding the PASR principles, it becomes a matter of how to express oneself to the utmost. So therein is profits, and also fulfillment. It works incredibly well with inter-market stuff. I do realise ...

I've found that I enjoy the intra-day alot? Really hit home when I caught a 2big fig move made 1:2.5 and my mate made 8% from stacking it on in the smaller TF. Probably differences in aggressive level. I introduced him to this business. So yeah. ...

Thought I'd chime in a little bit. This touches quite heavily on the style that I've been working with. Not been super active here cause I dont' want to complicate things. This has been what's worked for me. I personally find CT trading extremely ...

I was short from 3381 yest but freaked out on the 1hour engulfing hammer... only to see it dip back down to 33fig where I thought it'd go. Daily hammer, 1hour hammer... the logical answer was quite obvious if one were short.. Strangely I didn't go ...

Pretcher seems abit too married to his opinion...which well, imho, is dangerous. A grand super cycle whatever thingo can take a LONG time to unfold. And there's alot of money to be made in the mean time. Bravo mate. Glad it's turning out ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Wow. Interesting. Thanks. I'm not against EWT. I'm just saying I can't relate to it. No offense intended to anyone here. I hear Paul Jones is big on EWT too, but to each his own yes? =) Whatever works~

Technical Analysis Fallacy

I tried this b4 and it sucked. LOL. I was using EWT, BUT THE MARKET DIDN'T KNOW THAT! So it stopped me out a few times. I know only ONE guy who's REALLY good at it. He's an NDF god in Asia @ RBS (ex-ABN). But no one knows how he does it. and ...

That is one sharp rally. 3200 + mS1 confluence I presume. Wouldn't be a bad place to unload long inventory for e sell side boys... least tt's my guess..Tipped their hand strong in the 1hour too. Lets see how Fiber closes going into the wkend. GEfx: ...

Haha. Glad it did so. I like this place. It's friendly, progressive, I can relate to the big guy's (fti) style and the content's pretty darn good (and veerryyy long). Love your signature btw sounds like something I can imagine myself saying ...

Cause generally, we know when we see a pig (literally & figuratively) but seldom can know where and when the wind is going to blow? (barring hurricanes...LOL) Being facetious. haha The short term 5mins are good if one can see the big picture. No ...

I've heard North Finance offers quite abit of instruments, but have not verified that. I think sooo much about James' principles is about making it personal. And largely, forest - trees, forest - trees, forest - trees. Heh

I really like this. Much meaning in few words. Might I ask where they are from please? This is a long thread, not read everything here yet. Pardon the ignorance. =) Dude! Have you checked out the bigger TF charts? I'm not uber well versed with the ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Heya matie. Nothing personal intended hey. I'm glad it's speaking to you. Speaks to one of my trading mates too. I'm just saying that it didn't speak to me, despite going through the book 3 times. Different brain wiring perhaps. Mark Douglas has ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

I've actually read In The Zone a few times. Didn't really like it. I found that it too restrictive. A whole set of do this dont do that, etc etc. Saying things like, "be nimble" was like saying, "grow taller" to me. But HOW does one "be ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

81.25 pretty heavy on doll index now. Agree that broad trend is still upward biased. I dont think the euro situation is going to unravel so quickly, so until that happens, i think we're going to be seeing the doll strong and euro weak in general. ...
