consider filling in your logs a few rows ahead of the market. Before you do that, reason through the logic basis for the certainty with which you fill in what you do. You have a non-stationary window where several things are going on. On the left side, as time passes some bars get dropped off because the non-stationary window has no need for them. In a "symmetry of history manner", you see the non-stationary window opening up to time space that is in the future and is not as yet o9ccupied by the bars that will occupy the zones being contructed for them through the principles. The part of this region nearst the Present where the future comes into the present, continually becomes more and more certain. How is it that this happens? It all happens because of you and the trouble you have taken (or better stated: the opporunity you have taken) to have a differentiated mind. Ron Howard divided his movie into three parts. The segway from part II to part II was the statement of the opportunity. A choice was made between electroshock therapy and "differentiation". The caustic information was the inference created by inductive miswiring. I am asking you to begin part III of boot camp. Certainty arrives in the Present, because in the near term future, all of the alternatives have been eliminated. By filling in the rows a few rows in advance you get to do "eraser". you erase what you thought was possible when you discover, before the Present, that it is not possible. Eraser plays the roll of the null hypothesis testing. It is very important that all of you work with each other as time passes. what if this were like the ES Journal where you posted the log (M) a few rows ahead instead of actions (A) taken in the near past as is done in the ES journal. At this point the slices are getting more informative because they are related to the non-stationary window. Don't post anything not under present consideration in the past. the "channel" boundaries will show but it is not necessary always to have their origins showing. We are on level 2 making use of level 1 to build. Our objective is to develop precision regarding the MODE and articularly to know WMCN at all times. Your mind IS differentiated. This differentiation forms a funnel to what is important, why it is important and How it is important. Working ahead is how you log your mind. Annotating is how you express working ahead in the market's offer. If we have both of these in synch, then the Present is always just what did come next obtained from WMCN. Chop off the past that is cast in stone and deal with the slice that is being sculpted by the market all in the context of your mind's differentiation. You will notice carefully and clearly that you are forming more corroberated interstitial differentiating networks in a lot of places in your mind. Spyder continually emphasizes being very thorough in the moment; he also keeps drawing you out on WMCN through thinking. Use the log and the "eraser" function to help do this. Next, after this learning and drilling, you will move into the last of the four steps of trading skills and expertese. Here you have all the differentiation required the know and understand the markets. With that in hand, it just happens.
Thanks for the feedback, Jack. I rooted through my DVD collection, convinced I had that movie, but the closest I came was Cinderella Man. I remember it clearly though, and Wikipedia provided a cogent synopsis. Having witnessed electroshock or electroconvulsive therapy, differentiation is an easy choice. The fruits of inductive miswiring have been replaced by something far more empowering but I have not yet completely exorcised the remnants of CW. To this end, I value the EmWave more and more as I try to implant coherence as the natural state. A daily run-through on the games is an enjoyable drill, and the visualizer lends itself to longer sessions. Iâve also located a local practitioner who offers one-on-one coaching in meditation. The cardiac waveform reminds me of underwater buoyancy control; rising with inhalation and a held breath, falling with expiration. Iâve found a variation of the Quick Coherence technique to be a useful expedient in getting to green... The normal adult respiratory rate is approximately 12-14 breaths/minute. By adopting a relaxed posture, increasing the depth of (nasal) breathing, reducing the rate to 4 breaths/minute (4 second inhale, 1 second pause, 8 second exhale, 2 second pause) and letting appreciation and gratitude well from within, a coherent state is quickly achieved and effectively maintained. I imagine that the above measures may no longer be necessary after sufficient practice. Another week or so, and Iâll feel ready to raise the EmWave to level 3. Incidentally, the moment focus is turned to performance or targets (e.g. 90% green) instead of just BEing, coherence drops. Returning to the matter at hand⦠I will make the non-stationary window â on both the ES and the YM â more incisive, including only the relevant bars. While Iâve developed an unconscious awareness of the âsymmetry of historyâ, Iâve yet to formalize it in real-time. Looking back through historical charts, this symmetry is readily apparent. Iâve also yet to fully appreciate another of the points you allude to, orderly migration of the operating point. âEraserâ â which I acknowledge that youâve referred to before in passing â seems a very useful drill to advance this understanding. Hence no surprises. I look forward to the strengthening of the signal, differentiation by PACE and resumption of the normal YM-ES dynamic with the return of volume to the markets.
Hindsight chart for an oddly discontinuous day. Incidentally, despite trying hard to debrief the prior chart I couldn't come up with a more satisfactory alternative. <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=2242918>
Happy New Year's Day Neo. Let's start things off with an impertinent question. What is your color/line thickness protocol with respect to the set of parallel lines comprising your tapes, traverses (of whatever sort) and channels? I use the Spyderian form. If you've already stated this elsewhere could you provide me with a link et pardonnez moi. IMO, as chartists, we should have a common alphabeta. TIA lj, recently promoted to sergeant major in the Grobo-Spyderian Army of Liberation. Fack the B-team (especially that Socratic sot), on ET and elsewhere. Mods remove this at your peril.
Happy New Year to you too, Lj. I outlined my colour/line thickness schema here. I based this on Jack's red/green taping convention, gaussians and complementary colours (hence blue formations). I've since adopted green and orange for long and short intermediate trends, respectively.
Gracias. qu'est-ce que? What is your definition of an IT trend? I use the first superchannel (the channel of channels) to define an IT trend. lj
Complementary colours are aesthetically pleasing colour combinations that combine to form a neutral colour. Popular pairings include red-green, orange-blue and yellow-purple. I'm still clarifying my definition of IT trend.
EmWave games getting too comfortable so switched up a level. <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=2243347>
