    Just curious, do you know Timothy Sykes? He is an interesting character.

    There is nothing wrong asking for advice as long as one knows how to filter out the bad from the good.

    Thank you for your coaching.

    Actually your logic makes some sense to me. But how do you know when it will stop going side way? And how do you figure out whether it will be going up or down once it stop going sideway?

    On the other hand, isn't it easier to bet up when price is going up and bet down when price is going down? Maybe this is why trend following is so popular among hedge fund managers.

    usually when price start moving out of the range...

    of course this works better on some TFs than others.

  5. SPX for example:
    busy bee,
    in a tree,
    look at the sun,
    one plus one,
    so what we do?
    have a chew,
    the easy money,
    smells like honey

    the index big
    is not a twig
    branches so wide
    flows like a tide

    the flow can be
    but one of three
    yet most do look
    into the book

    the pages full
    of naut but bull
    the famous bits
    who are but twits

    the key you see
    in nature be
    just look around
    and listen sound

    the bee do buzz
    while not one fuzz
    will do till die
    so others fly

    to strive in vain
    is just a pain
    so purpose clear
    will path right steer

    when day arrives
    look in the skies
    and thank the bee
    for what now SEE :)

    I've actually met him more than once, he's like a fly that won't go away.

    No professional will ever touch what he teaches.

  8. Tim Sykes is an excellent marketer. He just loves being in front of the camera, and talking and dancing and moving and using makeup and new clothes.
    I'm sure he is a good trader, as well -- But an excellent marketer/salesman.

    Great traders, in my opinion, are introverts.
    Tim Sykes is definitely an extrovert.

    baron's head not in cloud.
    baron very much standing on earth
    baron's ego in check, unlike some others.
    the chart silk purse for me, what it is for you i don't give the tiniest of ......
    I did not ask you a question, i made a statement.
    I know what charts show, it is very simple, one of three things and where those things happen is where the low cost opportunity lies.
