Need some guidance? Turn inward. Look for the underlying structure. Look for what works. Look for what is loved. Look for what is imagined.

crammed most trailing stops to just under this weeks CLG18 low ... to ‘hedge’ CLV18 longs (starting to 'imagine' an exit to this trade and starting to build a short scale trade in CL - but don't know yet when or where I would begin... summerish? mid 70's ish???. just my imagination :doh: ... CL "doesn't even know me"... time to do some cycle and resonance work...)

Thank god for automation. I was not up at 1:34 AM... and even if I was I would not be ‘frisky’ enough to do it right... or care about some stupid narrative coming out of china... I’m just sayin’

There’s another angle on why “There’s Nothing Special About Your Strategy” - “When traders first encounter the notion of expectancy” - or stated another way, when beginning traders attempt to impose a layer of genuine “statistics” onto whatever foundation of unconscious ‘magical’ structure they bring to the arena - they immediately revert to looking to ‘systems’ and methods to mitigate the ‘chaos’ ... Rather than dig into the details of that - fk, let’s get to the point... It is deep and intense involvement that makes real growth happen, not methods! Method is secondary. In the presence of deep and intense involvement even a wrong principle, a wrong method, and/or a wrong teacher can lead you to the ‘real’ where you can then find the truly correct practices and methods for your self ... TL is such a sharing caring place ... where we discuss things openly and at any depth needed...

Russia is exploring ways to create a “cryptorubble” “This instrument suits us very well for sensitive activity on behalf of the state. We can settle accounts with our counterparties all over the world with no regard for sanctions... the cryptocurrency would be the same ruble, but its circulation would be restricted in a certain way...and allow the Kremlin to track its every move."

Back to work... to ‘hedge’ CLV18 longs, incrementing trailing stop .10 -.30 per day with CLG18 contracts. Currently they trail about 2.50 under yesterday’s CLG18 lows ... the current 'joke' around here is what how much smaller, unleveraged positions in btc have absolutely kicked this position's ass the whole way through... :missy:

Who owns the UFO narrative? Would someone please help and advise me on how to participate in the latest wave of the ufo psyop? I want to help analyze the metal from an alien ship I want to study how they might spread biological ‘threats’ thanks zdo

Some end of year thoughts on trading using priceseries * Consciously, ‘PAv’ traders are categorically NOT able to trade with oscillators (/ indicators). (Note that ‘consciously’ part - because unconsciously every single one of them is creating and using ‘indicators’ in the background.) Real oscillators traders can categorically NOT (consciously) trade with PA. (Note that ‘consciously’ part - because unconsciously every single one of them is attempting to process PA on the fly.) Point is - Both modes are always going / functioning. “Find your own way” zdo. Find out which one you are best suited for, make that one dominant and develop it that fully... Let the other one be recessive. If you’re a PA trader, don’t fool yourself into total rejection of oscillators. And by the same token, if you’re an oscillators trader, don’t be swayed by the preaching of PA traders to completely exclude oscillators trading. Find out which one you are best suited for, develop that fully... and then you might be free to consciously include and accommodate certain aspects from the other one. ... PA traders do notice and repeatedly announce an important ‘weakness’ of indicators. Stock indicators don’t ‘work’. :rofl: Yep, statistically out the box at best they produce ( with ‘costs, a slightly negative) wash... ie the ‘sample runs’ where they outperform do not offset the ‘sample runs’ where they underperform, etc. ** ... The key word here is “stock”. There are (only?) three ways to overcome this weakness of stock indicators. 1 ‘Skew’ the indicator calculations to match the ‘slope’ (and travel, etc) of the auctions. 2 Learn to ‘wetware skew’ the reading of the indicator to match the ‘slope’ (etc) of the auctions. 3 Type the auctions to know when and when NOT to apply an indicator ie You got to know when and how to "harm squiggly lines" (sorry TRO for appropriating your apt phrase... ) Wishing all ya'll wonderful holidays and a happy solstice in exactly one minute !!!! zdo *instead of non price / fundamental / narrative information **:haha: Unfortunately, PA traders can't go about as readily acknowledging the equivalent real world statistics of 'out the box' PA... ie don't get it that both modes are always going / functioning.
