We see that a RDBMS has all the bells and whistles for monitoring and analyzing markets. We get slugs of information and these slugs form as the moments go by. we annotate and log what is happening by the moments. two columns are used for the bar # and the countdown second of the bar. we note the price formation at the beginning (usually a sym). When the sym diisappears we note the new price caswe. we Squish mentally as the seconds pass. We are ALWAYS "looking for". Every bar has a name and soon enough we write the name n our EVENT column. The Event column contains volume bar names and End Effect names. Marketsurfer has a formula which will be "True" when he enters a trade. He holds for the seconds of the bar until one of two things happen (both make money). One thing is BE which only makes a little money and the other is the end of the bar. The True test is a formula as said. this is the simplest way to ALWAYS make money on the simplest trade on the books. If marketsurfer posts his trading results I will grant an interview to anyone he suggests. I need the trading format as an A priori approved format for making a public personal track early in 2013. The bar right now is a trade bar for surf. he can see when the label came on the bar to get him to enter. He exited with a BE that just makes the "left overs" from a tick. we were in long before and we went flat for the day. Now bar 78 is there and the margin is going to non RTH margin for overnite.
bar-by-bar trading is a "looking for" type trading. Our specific type is a RDBMS fully complete system. Price has 10 cases which we watch and use to gate or kill mesuring in volume. Gates are XB, XR, and OB. Kills are all the rest (the WAIT) bars. As you see (meaning percieve with 10% sensory and 90% inference (long term memory), half of the bars in a market progression are "Wait" bars. To lessen the burden of inference, on a chart the gates and kills are automatically annotated by using maths on the display. these formulae are called "highlights" on most platforms. If your platform does not do this stop using it. Now we can procede to the 11 parts of volume bar pairs. the first bar in the pair has a name already. The second bar is named by a test procedure (three parts each done in the correct order.) the test procedure is done when price gives permission. This is a CERTAIN MOMENT.
11 volume elements. P1, T1, P2, T2P, Not T2P, Not Not T2P, T2F, Not T2F, Not Not T2P, P3P, P3F. Plus: PPs = Pre-preliminaries.
The volume names appear one after another all in their own good time. This means we do NOT use time in a RDBMS. Look at the magician posts. Authors such as Restak, Llinas, Doidge, the DANA Guide authors , Kevan, Schoek and Shah explain "why and how and what is being done by Magician, marketsufer and the OP. Bar names have a common meaning. Each name is the name of an event. The OODA of the CW keeps time in the picture and makes bets, does money management and risk management. We see Kelly, Fischer Black (an ecomomist) of Black Scholes, Derman of Black Derman Toy formulaand Taleb RandomMan in the purple cape) where the betting phenomena is statisticulated to kingdom come. As is known the famous book on LTCM ("When Genius Failed"shows how adjusting bets can run out of money before the odds become favorable) Instead, we are using volume in its granularity as a leading price indicator to show the train of events in a trend and we have them END after the test procedure gives us the answer. The answer is binary. This means its probability is 100% After the trend ends, the appropriate end effect is chosen. Choosing it is a matter of using logical deduction. Each is gradually eliminAted as a tend CONTINUES. Longer event trends have have fwer alternative endings. None of this is believable to most minds. These minds have never developed the language elements to have a spectrum of elements organized in a fully differentiated manner. Part way through this mind building process, the unconscious mind is capable of merging its knowledge with the knowldege of the onscious mind. This state a person acquired is astounding. because I lecture in various places, I get to meet people who deal with the mind. Usually they are giving care to troubled minds. Lon ago I focus on learning theory; today I deal with the PTSD of vets. "The Pattern" shows the five major volume elemnts AND, better still, it associates them with the price parts of a trend.
Jack,why no one around you point you out that you are lost,confused,disappointed and a useless job or you are alone?
as you see in the Pattern" there is the obvious TRAP the OODA CW people fall into. What separates the men from the boys? The proof is found in the nesting of "The Pattern" halves of the cycle of trading. A cycle is a long then short or a short, then long. I have posted this train of events many times and it is never understood by most. I feel a person can work and discover as the best way to move ahead on the path to full mental differentiation. The order of the 6 events of sentiment could be the neutral turf upon which to begin. Task 1. write down the dominance of sentiment in a tend from beginning to end. Task 2. Write down the dominance of sentiment in the next trend from beginning to end. This is tough. It requires a sheet of paper and a crayola or two. If you are studoius use crayola colors to indicater both the trend vector and the dominance vector. you will need four crayola's. The crayola company was owned by a famiily. They lived and sailed out of Old Greenwich. Their children when to local private prep schools. So I got free crayola's and paper. Lindbergh's youngest daughter was in the same class. Number and date and initial your sheets as you work to the solution. Most people are afraid to do this.
Read Schoeck's comments on the work of Raiga (footnoes 66, 67 and 68). Two succinct sentences apply here. One is before the footnotes the other after. Enjoy.
Thanks for posting. The open tomorrow is short. The last four behavioral trading actions were on bars 69, 72, 77 and 81. As a strategy I exit during RTH just before bar 78. I do not like margin calls as I am trading 94% of capital in all accounts as linked intl a master account. I keep below the NFA requirements in order to be classified as an amateur. he small advantage is I have fewer reporting requirements and they are not public.
