Quote from Lamont_C:

Though there are undoubtedly price action people who look down their noses at indicator people, the PA people have no reason to feel superior. And contrary to the beliefs of some indicator people, the PA people do not fail to understand indicators; they just don't see the point (other than perhaps scanning a database for price movements). In most cases, the latter have in fact gone through all this, as mentioned earlier, and had insufficient success with it, just as they've been dissatisfied with the chat room phase and the newsletter phase and the advisory service phase and the red-green arrow software phase and the seminar-course-workshop-DVD phase and the trade-the-news phase and the chart pattern phase and have instead found a more comfortable fit with a focus on price flow.


You pretty much nailed it. I just can't help notice (and bitch about) all these posters creating one thread after another with the intention of getting some crumbs from other experienced traders only to get swamped by useless info that will only frustrate them in the end.

'price action' and now 'price flow', well my term is 'price movement' . . . however . . .

definitions - opinions - are required in order to put some much needed clarification
of just what 'Price Action' is - to wit -

'definition' ch 1 p 1 : 'Reading Price Charts Bar by Bar: The Technical Analysis of
Price Action for the Serious Trader' Al Brooks
"There is no universally accepted definition of price action
and since you need to always trying to be aware of even the seemingly least significant
piece of information that the market is offering,
you must have a very broad definition.
You cannot dismiss anything because very often something that initially appears minor
leads to a great trade.
The broadest definition includes any representation of price movement during the course
of trading."

imo 'price action' trading — trading the price movement Has To include Time in the
analysis/calculation of trades, a personal choice

"Remember, price action is the inescapable footprint of what is happening as a huge number of smart people are independently trying to make the most money that they can in the market." - Al Brooks
