I suspect a large part of the difference may have to do with whether one trades price or indicators. The NQ doesn't wait around. One has to make a...
Rather than abandon charts, try trading something else. I chose the NQ over the ES years ago and have never had reason to regret it. The NQ is...
Necessary? No. Useful (in re the title of the thread)? Yes. What is more important, however, is that you are at least open-minded about it, a rare...
Fortunately, if one is trading price, no guessing is necessary: if buying interest outweighs selling interest, price will rise; if selling...
It's an inappropriate question. Price and volume are simultaneous. One does not create the other. One does not come "first". Volume is nothing...
It isn't so much a question of belief or disbelief but of appropriate application. Volume is trading activity. If there's very little volume,...
Wyckoff suggested something like this a century ago, that one should step outside himself and observe himself and that one should justify to that...
Sorry. I was agreeing with your comment that "there is no way for us as market participants to manipulate 'their' emotions." The "no", in other...

Actually it tells you that a great many traders are involved in these trades and, presumably, their outcome. This phenomenon is common during...
Speaking of keys . . . The tape is like a moving picture film. Every minute of the day it is demonstrating whether supply or demand is the...
Yes and no. Accumulation takes place on the way down. The surge in buying is part of what retards and eventually halts the decline. It can...
Volpri is to be congratulated for doing an excellent job of analyzing his chart in terms of candlesticks and candlestick volume. However, there is...
And even if one misinterprets everything, there's always the option to re-enter. And it reduces the nail-biting.
Uncertainty, however, needn't mean cluelessness. If, for example, one has noticed that the uptrend is usually in trouble if price drops below the...
Mechanical doesn't necessarily mean rigid, and "simple" doesn't necessarily require a mechanical approach. Simple can mean isolating those factors...
Yes, it is, especially as it is a dynamic expression of the forces of demand and supply, or, if one prefers, buyers and sellers. One can do...
It isn't so much that we find it difficult to express ourselves as the efforts invariably are heavily trolled and eventually wind up as arguments,...
