I would never state my edge here!! The above are just general guidelines. When you understand what price movement looks like on a chart observed 'trading basics' work just fine. TA is complete and utter b.s. if you are only applying it surface deep though. BD
If you don't show your holy grail, how does a potential collaborator work out you have one then ? What you have stated so far are the same thing every beginner reads on his first day at internet gambling.
I haven't come across anyone that said they can read a chart utilizing the 3 components (dimensions) of PA and oh by the way here's how. If I did I would have a couple questions for them thus the collaboration part...
The market is driven by positions and not by price. If you want to play, you have to put your money on it, just eyeballing it is not going to get you very far. Maybe your holy grail with 3d charts works best making demo pips. The real market is not susceptible to the curve people try to fit it in. The real market is a bit like pacman: gobble, gobble, gobble, lovely stops. A holy grail cannot be holy unless it is capable of defeating pacman.
Charts are not 3D which make them the perfect weapon for the industry. Only when time and price align you get the symmetrical patterns the whole world sees. BD
Ok, a holy grail with a time dimension. So if you wait long enough, the bankers will give your their money ? Wouldn't it be easier for them to push the price against you ? You'd fold in 5 seconds flat, which would save both the bankers and you plenty of time.
This doesn't make sense .. If price was random like you claim then time or anything else wouldn't help you at all.. Any real business man wouldn't give you a time of day because of these key words ("lack of confidence").. I'm just giving you some pointers from a person outside looking in.. Good luck!
You are making no sense. If the market is truly random then given sufficient time, the price will visit every part of the playing field therefore producing a profit no matter where the trade is entered. So the OP's holy grail will make the greatest sense if the market is random. Unfortunately for the OP, the market isn't random. The only function of the market is to seek out profits. That means the price will not visit every part of the playing field. Instead, it will only visit location of stops, and where there are trades present with no stops then locations of potential stops are visited. The only time the market will adopt a random posture is when there are no open positions present. Then the price can be left running according to random numbers to draw in people with holy grails. Once those people are in, the randomness instantly evaporates and replaced with targeted moves.
I'm sorry Mr. Guru.. I forgot that you know everything and everyone else doesn't.. Random : unknown, unidentified, or out of place, odd and unpredictable in an amusing way.. Sorry, but no matter how good your timing is, you will not be profitable in a random environment. Will you win once in a blue? Yes! Good luck!
