Why Can't I Trade with the Trend

Discussion in 'Strategy Building' started by Flashboy, Mar 10, 2005.

  1. Why?

    Or am I asking too much - i.e. your response will be the usual one-liner "noise".

    It does not matter if these trends are real or imagined. All that matters is this - Can these guys make money following what they believe is the trend, in whatever timeframe.

    or

    http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...f=sr_1_7/102-6945639-5913707?v=glance&s=books

    Once you read them . . . read this . . .

    Trading isn't copying others opinions . . . it is learning to "READ" Market movement yourself so YOU can trade exactly what you SEE!! Nobody pulls the trigger on a trade but YOU so you HAVE to be 100% CONFIDENT in your decision!!

  8. Why Can't I Trade with the Trend?
    (some think that only about 5% of the aspiring traders will ever discover it)

    nononsense will once more try to answer this.

    Very simple, cause "the Trend" is something like Santa Claus. If you really want it, you have to make or invent one for yourself that works. Not many know about this.
    :cool:

  9. This is a very important tip. Only problem is that no one realizes how important MACD is.
    For me it is the difference between losing lots of money and winning lots of money.

    Nononsense:

    to you the trend is like Santa Claus; to me it is a reality. It's not because you're not able to find him that he doesn't exist.
    The knowledge a person has is defined by the limitations of that person. It is not directly related to intelligence as most people think.
    Some persons have gifts that others don't have. Some see the trend, some will never.
    Some are open minded, others not.
    Some can think very analytical, some not.
    Some believe only what they know, some know that there are thinks that go beyond their proper capabilities.

    If there are things that i don't believe or don't understand, i say that it doesn't work for me, i will never say that is doesn't exist. I know that i have my limitations. So my conclusions have to take that in account.

    (I'm not sure the last phrase was in good english.):D

  10. I don't understand the argument. The possibility for a trend to not exist, is only if the elements of opposing forces are completely neutralized. An astronomical improbability.

    A given noise factor though, is another consideration to be reckoned. Which is where channels (as a scope) work as a wonderful tool over a mere line.

    Confidence intervals can sometimes be useful as boundaries, as well.
