Bravo ! If you push on the gas peddle, the car goes forward. Knowing "why" can bring satisfaction to my curiosity. Learning how to use the gas peddle to get me where I want to go is my current priority.
Thanks so much for pulling that from your electronic three ring binder. It will be a help to many others, I'm sure. I feel as Spyder does that keeping your eye on the ball and getting as much betting in is the important thing. The ball park commentary is a secondary consideration. Do rest assured that it is all there, however. This journal and the pace at which we have chosen to learn is right on the mark. When the MODE is CHANGE, we will be looking at the YM leading the ES to make the best of this level of trading. For FEB there is a lot of work to do. The forest level was the ONLY place to begin. Now that you have 20 or more days in on the forest, your mind is ready for another dose to take in a thorough and knowledgeable way. Treat yourself to the opportunity to build your mind in the best possible way with what is going on here. i am so glad to see the other exchanges and instruments coming into the picture. My best to everyone.
Had a few breakthroughs today.. The point 3 thing was quite fluid. I think a combo of getting close enough to the market but not too close. Like you have to see the bacteria but from the forest canopy.. Secondly, the way and importance of channel coming OUT FROM previous channel..i was better on the DAX with this but without realizing that I was doing it. Serendipidy visited again today as I posted immediately after Spytrader's "half Time" post which I didn't know he had posted. His Olive channel (which I superimposed on to my attached chart) spoke to re: coming OUT FORM previous channel. Reason being , the ease (relatively) that his channel set out the future, His olive channel ( as it transpired) gave far better conext for the future price action. To be able to compare with where I was in the market (at that very moment was the serendipidy). Lastly, it was also continued insight to see that by taking the "NOW" action re: the rules of FFT, FBO and BO, even I was able to stay on the right side. Eventually I was channelling out og previous channels with a bit more fluidity... Anyway forgive the indulgence. It goes without saying that I hope what I've posted is or will be ( in the future) a help, in so far as asking a question or making an observation, for someone who is also on the same starting out process as myself. Best to all FilterTip "every day I wake up and realize I know nothing and then I smile"
