{quote} Hi giselle Don't get me started or I will discuss delta till the cows need milking. My opinion is the Daily chart offers no valid information to judge cumulative delta data. Try looking at M5 or M15 as a viewpoint to better understand what is happening. I think its better to just study cumulative bar charts as they are easier to understand and trade. Can I say that trading Cumulative Delta by itself isn't of much value unless you know how price is being manipulated.

Trading is common. Understanding is rare. Therefore it is upon the understanding rather than upon the trading that trader should dwell.

Hi deano, allow me to attempt to explain further this topic about understanding in this Forex market. I try my best although I'm bad at explanation.

Traders in general are hard wired to look for reasons why such and such happen. Reasons help traders understand then they believe in it.

Example, last night there's the nfp numbers where the dollar weakened due to such and such fundamental analysis conclusion.

To the volume analysis trader there's such and such volume delta pattern therefore the usd weakened.

To the orderflow traders there's such and such orderflow pattern that showed decrease demand therefore the usd weakened.

The common ground hardwired in our psychology is the requirement for causality.

We dig deeper to understand that there's a difference between correlation and causality. This video explains the misconceptions.

There are rules to qualify for causal relationship. This video list them out.

I posted this Feyman video on Andy's other "real or algo" thread. The analogy of this understanding problem in Forex trading is found from 3.53 onwards.
Inserted Video


Feyman explains the difference between knowing and understanding. In Forex trading, is knowing the accuracy of the calculations more important or understanding the cause and effect of price movement?

This final Susskind video explains the math philosophy behind the calculations. In his words "physics is about prediction, to predict from the present, predict future from the past..."

Pete, this is the answer to your question that you asked on "real and algo" thread.

I hope these series of videos help explain the topic about understanding this Forex market.

So if we learn how to predict the weather we need to know :
1. How the weather change in time ? , and
2. How the weather changes in space ?

And correlation IS NOT causation and Nakamoto KNOW that so he want US to think wrong (indirectlly) by being quiet in his side.

So deep He corrupting our mindset indirectlly, but our solution is self awareness and to question everything

Yes, Random Walk theory, Efficient market hypo, Supply-Demand things is another conditioning typo for us..

And when my flower tell me that : " Price behaviour IS controlled totally by extraterestrial algo my conditioning mind scream very loud: Don't trust your flower Dean, but trust the highly education world.

And Nakamoto even tell me :
Hi Dean, erase that "controlled totally and globally'" words from you vocabulary. It ain't gonna happen.

Believe that the market is decentralized and supply demand is real driver. It is make sense, right !

Before He go to swim , He give last word: CORRELATION IS ALWAYS CAUSATION. Remember : BWilliam is liar.

Uups

Hi deano, more goosebumps for you.

Feynman is the maverick who challenged conventional wisdom. His curiosity drives him deeper and deeper into the hierarchy of things which manifest into a myriad of real phenomena from simple rules. Things beyond what we know is where history does not repeat itself, history is fundamentally irrelevant. I am far more interested in the things I don't know than the things that I know.

Dear PIP miner

To increasing the GUT, i find the first step is WAITING factor. To always weigh the entri Risk and make sure that entri is above 90% probability success.

Second : is mastering the self doubt by drill correct self belief and calming my "inner voice".

Third : reduce leverage

Fourth : Journaling all of "WHY" analysis and Entries filter analysis (Mr. G entri probability enhancer) on the past.

The rest and the MAIN are HUMILITY (never never ASSUME) and PATIENCE at all time . They are A MUST.

Focus and only goal is maintenance all above and ALWAYS MINIMIZE my mistake.

Just for me
Everyone is different
In their own path to find their own best success

Been awhile...Pete in excellent form, BWilliam hopefully out of retirement.
EUR Group either single pairs or as a basket starting to look like a reasonable short may be on the cards, H1.
No setup as yet, but possibly from tomorrow.
If I do see a setup that floats my Dutchman I'll post a chart... and watch it get destroyed either by price or Pete or both...
Patience is the key word...at least by how I look for setups.

Stole this from another thread, I'm sure Pete wont mind.
Quick check of price and yep, took out his target.
Pete has provided pics like this in this thread, my old thread and elsewhere, in his own time, with little to no thanks.
Before the event, not after.
The market performs the same dick dance on a constant basis.
All pairs.
George was the instigator in how to work out the targets, the first one to actually get people thinking!

A discussion happening elsewhere has boiled down to who has the highest education and can out perform each other.
Unfortunately that leaves me out so I'll just carry on as normal.
Back in the day barrow boys would perform as well as the most highly of educated traders.
Pete isn't a barrow boy, far far from it, but he does put up his charts, he opens his zipper!

The wordsmiths don't.

Too clever to see what's right in front of them.

Correct.
The forex market does the same thing over and over again as demonstrated by Pete, 99% see this and then expect a different result!

Hi Andy, cheers pal, early morning here so I'm still shaking out the cobwebs.


What you say about the repetitive nature of Forex (charts) is quite correct imho, AND observational.

Just not readily observational BAR by bar on each timeframe, which is the common trap.


It is the "biggest" picture a trader should be looking for initially imo.

THEN we can bring ourselves down into smaller views to identify potential trade entry points.

This can be done mathematically or visually, if we have our starting point to work from.


And that starting point is the hardest part for all new traders, and I am not an educator so I cannot advise (just show charts as you say).

There is plenty of info floating about on forex to start the thought processes flowing.

Just don't trade LIVE first for real money YET, is what I would suggest to any new traders.

Forex is a routine, just find a routine that fits, and stick to it.

Hi Pete, that's a good advice you give to wannabe traders. Most people won't follow though, they tend to believe learning comes from doing and doing it for real. If you don't trade live account it's not learning. Perhaps it's true to an extent.

From experience I find there's a balance between researching and trading live account at the same time. It's a 80:20 ratio for me whereas 20:80 is the norm. For the latter you get the common situation of under-research in many cases. Ofc when I started it was 20:80.

Many people dive into trading live account for a living because of the need to pay bills. While research per se does not give immediate reward. Research is only for those who do it with intellectual conquest as a goal. There don't exist this need to earn a wage from trading Forex.

If you read my earlier posts I delve into this subject about research work and actual trading for a living. I specifically pointed out not to trade Forex for a living. Especially when there's not enough effort and time invested in research - 80:20 ratio.

People tend to believe that the trader learns more from trading live account. Whereas there's less learning from research work. I believe otherwise, the 80:20 rule. Oh well, here I rattle the chain again in these 2 paras.

There're 2 parts to learning - Gather knowledge and acquire skills to execute. Most people skip the first part and take trading as entirely the second part. Battle hardened live account traders excel in part 2. It's 80:20 ratio for me. Once this process is done and completed only then we commit real funds into trading this Forex market.

There's lots to chat about on this subject. This post is already pretty long. And not yet complete, just touch the surface. I just felt the need to write in more detail as a discussion among us who are interested to share our experience. (No "guru" stuff, just chatting in a discussion - got to write this clarification, lol)
