starting the topic a little early

Okay, for those who care (and those few who like to try to decipher my clues, and understand my deeper meaning and trading philosophies), here's the reference for 'Searching for Bobby Fischer'. The 'There it is' line is 3:21 in. For those who have heard my 'Don't move until you see it' reference, it is 5:06 in (the lead in for this part starts about 4:00 in). Trust me, as much as I like quoting movie lines, I do it because there is a deeper meaning I am trying to convey. Think back to my recent Master Po lines I posted, and the 'Don't move until you see it' reference, and try to understand...





And if you still don't 'see it', check this out. It is one of the most instructional clips of everything I have seen (as was Bruce Lee, for my trading and life philosophies). If you don't 'get' this, you don't get what I am trying to show in here. What the higher level skills are. 'Don't think... feeeeeeel. It is like a finger, pointing away to the moon. Don't concentrate on the finger, or you will miss all that heavenly glory...'

There it is! (in my best Laurence Fishburne voice, from the movie 'Searching for Bobby Fischer', as I have explained before several times).

What do you think old 'joey-d' was saying when he said 'As the bigger turns approach, the tools work better and better on the lower timeframes, such that most people miss the important turns'? Are people concentrating on the finger, or the moon? Are they setting themselves up to miss all that heavenly glory?

I am not saying the greater point is to not miss the big turns by concentrating on the smaller turns too much, I am saying this is one of many examples of how people tend to not do what Bruce is saying. What I have come to see as critical. 'Context'. They can't see the forest for the trees. Don't concentrate on the finger...

BTW, see how they did the 1-tick new high, and that was all they planned on. See how it exploded up, stopped dead on the key price flow, based for a pop over to the 1-tick new high, then failed the backtest, and it is still weakening into the close. This is just an obvious, game playing script, and I saw it right off the bottom. It's just a game that they play.

Student: Old one, how is it that you see all these turns, price flows, tricks, traps, and games?

Master Kane: Young one, how is that you do not?

I can't help but finish up by saying I am loving this selling here. And everyone knows what that means. Jim has his ear to ear grin again. Any time the market sells at all, I have a monster, huge grin on my face. Any time they throw me any selling bone...

Jim,

Thanks for sharing the movie clips and your insights. I appreciate it very much.
