Do Trendlines work?

Discussion in 'Technical Analysis' started by duard, Apr 3, 2005.

  1. On the face of it I can nod my head in agreement with what Grob has written. The problem is it's written as if it has come directly from the Bicentennial man himself. I should stress that it is what is written that is of interest and not the way in which it is written.

    There also were no less than 12 references to Money or Becoming Rich in this post, much to my dismay.

  2. Risto. Back off, dickhead! I totally grooved on it! I made one whole shitload of money scalping NQ, as you can see from my journal, while I was enjoying an out-of-body experience propelled by John T's post! I have already drunk the second bottle I made! Henceforth I am shifting to Jacob's Creek, which is less than half the price of White Star. Now I can drink and make twice as much!

  3. Going by his current furious writing pace, I guess he's not pouring much concrete anymore.

  5. Jacobs Creek? You G-d damned sellout. First you pack up and leave the South, and now you sell out California by shunning their fine Wines for some didgeridoo dingo Produce from the Outback.

    Old Possum its about time you discovered your Suvvern roots and started chuggin' Moonshine. Its cheaper too.

  6. If my ancestor had been "transported" from Merry Old England just a few years later, I would be an Aussie rather than Appalachian white trash. But a crinimal is a crinimal, wherever he may be. Truth to tell, Jacobs Creek is nice, but Wolf Blass yellow label is even better. In the Colonies it only costs two bucks more, when we can get it. I have gotten laid more and better plying fat girls with Aussie champagnes than I ever have with any other source. This is a statistically controlled quality process. Like Jack, my motto is "Whatever works!" The new math is "Good Aussie champagne plus faux American French food equals cheap pussy." But that only works if she is desperate because her husband doesn't fuck her any more.

  7. To get into building the x,y and z and the A, B and C it is best to have a road map of the brain and body and see the parts and stuff and particularly how it works. You have three or four references for this that I have posted somewhere recently. They will appear here shortly anyway by some others helping you out.

    Assume I have done that for you for a moment and lets just look at what we will be doing with everything and making money.

    Paragraph 1. You will be working inductively and deductively as conscious processes and, particularly when you acquire some experience, you will use your subconscious (it only works inductively) to have the AHA part of learning to trade. Your subconscious will assemble some experiences for you and when you wake up one day, you will find, suddenly, that you have a new capability to do more of the conscious things that you do.

    By now everyone here knows I do two basic things: program and filter. I monitor both by unobtrusively measuring the effects I create.

    I am building a trading modus for you. I have given it to you unsuccessfully many times and the result is that you are driving a car instead. So I will not tell you again at this moment since it will not help anything yet once again. I just need to back peddle as far as necessary to get to a place where you will make it a priority to consider what I have been saying.

    I will suggest to you that trading is a simple process that is acquirable by considering a few basic truths, that once agreed to between you and yourself, we can move forward.

    The skills for trading are ones that are few in number, easy to do and most of all are repetitive. This is a big switch for you. None of them require creating a written response ("response") nor thinking up questions.

    Repetitive skills, if and when they are created and recognized contain the essence of how a person gets very rich. This is a split ticket. We will invent two processes one inductive and the other inductive; automatically and not possible to omit, we create a second inductive process in the subconscious. Let me say that the % of each parts of what we will do is lopsided. The subconscious inductive stuff is 90% and you do not do it intentionallly it happens whether you like it or not (this is referred to often as the "feeling" side of the brain (right side)). The other 10% is the conscious pair of items inductive and deductive in the left brain. A lot of the time both sides are engaged as you already know.

    So I am repeatedly requesting that we work in a manner that allows these processes to be able to begin to work and to make it simple I have requested that you not do your standard processes that usually appear here. It just keeps things free from interuption for a while. This effort is just an isolated thing that you work at once in a while anyway.

    So at this point we are starting with an empty container that has an unlimited capacity to hold stuff. We are also building a very slick and extremely fast way to make use of the contents we are going to put in the container.

    Routing stuff into the container is automatic. And presently your mind has a way to do the routing, turn on and off the collection process and the locate the material at any time necessary.

    There is one downside and you see it exhibited in ET a lot. I want to not have you experiencing any of this side trip, ever. As you complete all the reading I assigned to you so far get the drill straight on limbic stress. Just write in a post (not a "response") that you finished reading each of the books the day you finish.

    If you are running even with me, then use this generation (See below) breakdown to create a list of "what exists for you" under x, y, and z and A, B, and C. "what exists for you" for now may be stuff that you have in piles here and there. And there may be things less formally identifyable. Get a package of 8 1/2 by 11 yellow pads and some boxes of three cut file folders and 12 whisky boxes and a box cutter. Do this, as you ID everything while making up the genreration breakdown, type it on a list to post here and write it on the item or if it is just not that formal, write it on the top of a yellow sheet. Place the items in common files and put common files in boxes. Use two whisky boxes per first digit and spread the L, M and H from front to back of the respective boxes. You have no H as yet; we will get another 12 boxes for that part of it.

    Use as first digit the x, y, z, and A, B, and C. Let the risk level of the topic be expressed as the second digit (use L, M and H for low medium and high, respectively), let , in order of importance the next four levels of topics be: 1, a, (10, and (a). Think of it as indenting if you were never in the military and using parts generation breakdowns. Do not do anymore than add a name after the generation breakdown ID.

    You are very lucky I did not ask you to do a search on each thing I have written on this year by year since 1957. If I had, then you would have to put it in the boxes. Don't worry it is already done at several universities.

    The above exercise is a routing exercise where you will find out about how your mind controls your senses.

    So the first and primal step in trading is to get your mind to control your senses properly. That comes next.

    As usual, channels are involved in this sensory first step in trading. There are three. in the four books you are doing, you can either buy two of each (the easy thing to do) or be prepared to scan the three basic sections that you need to have in your whiskey boxesfor the three sensory channels we need to begin to get to function.

    Some people who do not get it are thinking of substitutes for whiskey boxes. Why, I ask rhetorically?

    I am setting a normal pace for me. Reading books is done easily. Highliting and scanning is natural as well (do it when you are tired). Keeping things organized is always done at the beginning of things. So since you are just beginning there is not much to process. I am old so I accumulated several filing rooms full of five high filing cabinets during my research on the most recent books I was writing. Since the PC has been invented of late it is easier, maybe. Here we are only dealing with a focussed effort on making money by trading only.

  8. Furious, you have to be kidding.

    This is just a small sideline effort.

    I took exams on 18 credits of CE for one of my licensing areas (unrelated to the finance industry) over the weekend.

  10. Jack, baby, I am on board. When pigs fly, I will be your co-pilot. But your last post didn't tell me how to get RICH. Haven't you figured out yet that I will be your supremely sublime sycophant if you will just make me RICH? I am temporarily unemployed, but I will leap on a plane to Tukson and buy you and Liz a fabulous dinner (if such is to be had in Tukson), if you will just take me on as a Jackolyte!
