Discussion in 'Psychology' started by Rabbitone, Apr 20, 2009.

  2. I had the rare pleasure of working with bucky for the last three years of his life. (At the University City Science Center (UCSC) a consortium of 29 colleges and universities.) Many people, to this day send me copies of his writings of media stories since they know our past relationship.

    His twin, E. F. Schumacher, came to the US just after Carter had formed his cabinet. Carter gave his cabinet one book to read: "Small is Beautiful". Then, I was Chairman of the Board of NCAT where I had initially represented Carter during its formation. It was a CSA outgrowth of Seargent Shriver's work (OEO) with the poor under Kennedy. Some of us on the board had the pleasure of introducing Schumacher to Carter.

    Appropriate Technology was important and the National Center for Appropriate Technology. This off beat thread is so inappropriate as a commentary on people like Fuller, Schumacher, G. W. Carver, the Lindbergs, Franklin and so many others of those who changed the world's thinking.

    The wonder of funding people with ideas year after year and decade after decade is the most personally rewarding experience possible. Creating the pool extraction algorithm and passing it forward was no exception and it was necesary that the PC and the copier came along as well.

    Here in this thread we see the warped distortions that come from the crippling of the mind in the many ways that are demonstrated.

    Learning to learn is so valuable. Being at choice is so valuable too.

    It was amazing to see the OP of this thread appear. As thunderdog often says "unbelievable" and "astonishing". All spectator crap in the OP.

    Here is what is available:

    Two like kind hypotheses that are mutually exclusive. The dream come true that elininated probability from trading.

    One parametric measure: time rate of change of the two variables.

    And three priors that dictates the means to make money in markets using the timing the hypotheses and their single measure provides.

    Thus a complete paradigm (algorithm) founded on the integration of four intellectual theories. The true one pager as they say.

    So markets were invented. Their owners gave the market rules of operation. These living things continually offer. Anyone can take the offer since there is not even a threshold barring participation.

    People choose not to make money by taking the offer continually. The record is here in ET for anyone to make use of. five years of passing it forward. I see the effort as 10% of my trading career.

    At Rutgers recently they measured how this terrible mental distortion that affects failed traders comes to be. (See page 78 of the 11APR09 economist as I have mentioned.)

    Stress distorts intuition and analysis. Stress comes from choice to do and doing mistaken things.

    Franklin printed money for colonies under contract. He had to design the money. He did it by making it counterfit proof as well. He put a different leaf on each denomination, including all the smallest sinews. An idea. Try creating a leaf for use in moveable type. So very cool. Most of my life I read his autobiography several times a year. Now I have bifocals like the one Franklin invented as he grew older and needed them. Neat how the tops and bottoms are in the right places.

    Why do most traders fail? It is more than just their mistaken inventions that do not work. Money apparently really screws up the minds of people who do not have money.

    Reading B people is a study in the irreversable results of distorted mind damage which is the consequence of self induced stress. All the result of free choice in actions and decisions.

    maybe the OP could spend his time explaining how these B people went through their personal descriptions over time of how they permanently destroyed their opportunity to make money trading. One by one, like designng money that won't be counterfitted by n00bies. Because the n00by can see it is not worth the duplication of something that is busted.

    Give yourself the pleasure of picking one of these B people and reading, chronologically how they screwed themselves permanetly. Scare yourself a little.

  3. Communication can be out of this world by an author. But most traders never get it. It does not have to do with the author. It has to do with you.

    Many of these mind controllers present exact systems. Then they sell you deluxe tools and services to trade their way. Guess what. Most of the traders adopting these systems find they are not wired right to trade their systems even though they could make profits with the system.

    This happens because they don’t understand themselves and what their true internal style of trading is all about. Many traders suffer for years trying all sorts of odd trading before they know themselves. Some take a life time. Many never do make it through the process.

    Then on top of this you throw in the learning curve you must pay the market. It adds up to a big bill and a lot of mental anguish. In the process you can spend $100,000 in time, books, instruction to learn what a good look in the mirror can provide. You can not avoid a “honest” self inventory or you will fail in trading.

  4. Now you are making sense Neoxx. Al gore, Jack Hershey, philosophy and a big pot.

    Al Gore is working his but off to convince the world that planet earth is about to self destruct and our greenhouse gas is the cause.

    But in order to make his mind control succeed 700 of the worlds top scientists who deny this is possible have to get close to zero media coverage.

    Like real traders questioning the truth about SCT, these scientists prove conclusively the evidence not only doesn't stack up, but it stacks up against the argument of man causing climate change.

    All mind control addicts like Jack, Al Gore et al. back off from face to face confrontation when they need to produce hard evidence rather than fantasy to prove their claims.

  5. No, not at all.

    I had a series of tasks to do and, temporarily, I am ahead of where I need to be for a few days.

    I also had eye surgury and my vision is coming back a little. I also had to go through two regimes of antibiotics which took a toll on me.

    With reference to my last post, here is a guy who has gone through three phases of getting to where he is and out of the money so to speak.

    Look over the beginning phishing and queery.

    Then follow the vendor moment (it was brief apparently). Cheap pricing though; low six digits.

    Finally, examine his permanent resting place.

    As has ben suggested by contributors here, you can entitle the bio: "If I Can't Do It Nobody Can". There are a few handle changes along the way, too.

    Be sure to put an Appendix in called CV. There you see this guy went to college and had a major that could relate to the financial industry. Also add a section on "type sizing"; it is sort of a signature.

    There is nothing more to this question than the sum of the words.

    I am just interested to read how you view yourself on this thread.

  7. Yes, you must assume I am a mind controller. I have studied this area in depth because I have personally seen the destruction it can cause on individuals in trading and out. My language and my retorts could be interrupted this way.

    The one difference between me and the other mind controllers is I implore you to learn to repulse these kind of controls (including mine) when you see them and perform a trading self examination that leaves no holes in your armor.

    I appreciate your candor Rabbitone, even though I try as I may to avoid making assumptions and thereby drawing incorrect conclusions.

    That's not an answer (as usual) You left here out of respect for Baron.. so we can only assume you have no respect for him when you keep coming back and the real reason you leave is because you are challenged to trading contests and start clucking like a chicken

  10. This is a shot I took in JAN08. The icebergs were about a mile on a side. About 200 above water is what shows. These bergs are travelling west through the Antactica channel.

    The animals in this area are experiencing a shift in habitat change of about 50 miles a year.

    By February 2008 the size had changed to 5 miles on a side.

    I began my photography on global warming seriously in 1967 mostly locally where I lived (Switzerland). mostly everyone there who was involved in the climbing and skiing industry ws well aware of the delta over time.
