    It's actually the people that would follow this thread and these guru teachers that are missing the boat, it's that exact slant on their so called enlightenment that is causing you and them to be distracted from these guru's hidden agenda's.

    (I know this because I have seen them all and have even studied with some of them in my younger more foolish days).

    I remain on track with trading in my purposeful comments.

    PRAY and specifically prayer to Jesus Christ and/or the ONE true GOD of Moses, Abraham and Issac is the only way to peace and true success in LIFE and trading as a side benefit.


    I'm not missing anything, trust me.

    Happy trading to you all. :)

    I hate meditating basically... if i sit in the lotus posture my knees stiffen up really bad too... to reduce tension just tense and relax every muscle in the body, start with your toes and work up, you'll be asleep in no time... there is a feedback from the tense muscles that causes thoughts and the thoughts cause tense muscles... or you could meditate for a few decades and learn to quiet the thoughts :D

    Story of Jesus is older than "literal" Jesus. If I remember well in Egypt it was Osiris. Religion can't get any dumber than to believe in Jesus the historical person.

    But all human behaviour is based entirely on past events. Everything we know and have learned is based on how the world used to be. Science, technology, experience - all based on the past. All have so far worked very well for predicting the future.

    Even with the flip of a coin, the probability is based entirely on past events. How do we know that in future, coins will not all land heads and we never see a tail again? We don't - we simply assume that it will continue like the past, and flip 50/50 over the long run. The same phenomenon applies in trading. If a certain market behaviour has in the past usually led to a certain outcome, then the odds bet is for that to happen the next time. There is no other way to trade. Every trader is making bets based on either opinions/hypotheses which are not tested against the past (i.e. random guessing), or ones that are. Thus all traders who have a system (including discretionary traders) are making the bet that the future will in some respect be meaningfully like the past.

    If there is no such thing as an objective test, then how can quantum mechanics have proved anything.

    of course we do, even if we had never flipped a coin in our life....and never seeing tail again is very possible...and no the probability is not based on past events ( on the coin toss)....and i know what u are trying to convey though....peace

    sounds like meta-science discussion. what can we know and why.
    IMO the reasoning mind cannot move beyond projecting the past
    on to the future. a knowledge different from that requires a method
    different from that ...

  10. So this 'God', takes his own son out of heaven which is supposed to be quite a cushty place, and puts him on this rat infested planet as a 'gift'?

    He lets his son get tortured by the Romans, who eventually nail his son to a f*cking cross?

    This 'God' needs reporting for cruelty. Lock the sicko up.

    What a father!
