    To whom was gkishot directing this question? If it was in response to Post #8, my point was just the opposite. In other words, I don't make intuitive decisions...period.

    I agree;
    mostly+ seldom if ever do any see any man with intuition like a wise woman.
    BUT in a man its not really much of mystery; a subconscience mind NEVER forgets anything.
    I double checked with Webster's;
    ''quick + ready insight== amen.
    Even if i would not use the word'' quickLOL'' much in this context; a bit quicker than slow insight/LOL:D:DEspecially on a counter trend trade, SH or occasional spxu; since my gut tries to get me out of trade waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to quick, eventually get out , i dont want to swing trade that stuff today.
    And part of intuition is common sense; many times a deer will run across road/slow down /they travel in herds..................................................:caution::caution::caution::caution::caution::caution:,:caution::caution::caution:,:caution:

    Intuition comes from within. A trader should know what affects markets, what stocks are affected by what, why certain stocks go up on bad inflation data ect…. Many traders dont know these things.

    I bow-hunted..... with a buddy, his mom was 100% Indian;
    amazing Indian intuition with wisdom in woods.:caution::caution:
    But i had read NRA + hunt magazines as a kid;
    so i was not torn up when the green largemouth bass jumped sky hi trying to throw my hooks/LOL. Or the quails run, or sit tight/then explode up.
    Or a gang of bears wades in the [seasonal]stream+ simply opens their mouth @ red salmon jumping upstream:D:D

    From within? Stock going up or down is a signal already. Basic one but a signal. Your internal intuition does not seem to be isolated from the outside world. Any other signals to trigger your intuition?

  6. had to go find it and fixed numbers are redundant: something like this:

    2016, more than 52 percent of U.S. trading was attributed to trading algos; with an annual 5-6 % year over year expected growth (this gets us +30% to +42% growth over 52) . Others say "plateaued around 70-80 percent in the last 5 to 10 years". A study in 2019 showed that around 92% of trading in the Forex market was performed by trading algorithms rather than humans. Three years ago “It is estimated that 88-92% of all futures emini S&P 500, NASDAQ, gold and oil are currently traded algorithmically (https://www.targetstradingpro.com/algorithmic-futures-trading-solution/). . A big jump took place in 2007, around the start of the Great Recession,with 45% of trades being handled algorithmically. The rate of increase slowed to about 3-5% per year. By 2012, 85% of trades on American stock markets and exchanges were algorithmic trades.
