Kicking it off. I'm not sure why I'm even doing the forum anymore, but still kicking it off. I guess I do it for Marcin, rat, and the other guy, and the small handful of others who come in now and again...

Watch the GZ now.

Amazing how they dumped it right off the area I mentioned. Simple backtest and then down below the key swing lows. Now, another bounce, or just keep selling?

I'm leaning 70/30 for keep selling.

not sure what's wrong with a lively discussion between a handful of traders....give me five serious traders over a larger group that has no focus, and/ or attacks each others methods anyday....

nice move in the futures tonight. Here are the index charts as they stood as of the close Friday:

You're absolutely right, rat. I think I'm too caught up in a lifetime of people telling me my ideas are crazy and I have no clue what's going on. When I started this project a lot of people ripped me, and many said I had nothing new or original, even 'famous' guys who many respected (even me at the time). I've been dealing with this since way before I was a trader. Maybe some would handle this okay, but I haven't. The decades and decades of it wore me down.

So, when I see someone have some inane youtube channel with over a million followers, or a musician with forty-four million followers, or a music video with way over a billion hits, and I have three followers, I take it as a dismissal of the worth of what I created, the skills I have. I take it as a personal rejection. I've heard all the reasons why I shouldn't do this, I'm just saying, it's what I do indeed do, even if I am aware of all the arguments about why I shouldn't.

If I take it like rat does, a cool place for a few guys to share this stuff, and leave it at that, it's a great forum. I just wanted more out of it, more that is not to be. Instead of letting it go, I cling to wanting it to be more. And, as rat pointed out, even if I had more, it likely would be very disappointing to me, as it would never be what I want, it would likely be chaos and just maddening. So, I really should just revel in how cool it is that us few can share this stuff daily, and be thankful that we have that. We are 'the club', and it's pretty darn exclusive.

Great charts, rat.

Anyway, this is, obviously, where it would struggle, if they are indeed moving it down. Yes, it can pop up to the next level, but here's the first key spot.

Gosh, I love Voltaire's Candide. Everything is definitely as it should be, in this the (definitely) best of all possible worlds. I mean, they sweep it down with a timing factor, then they bounce it right to the backtest area, then they sweep it down for the bigger range, and they do, indeed, come in off that second sweep, and they have now driven it right back into the smaller range. Now we see here what they intend. I can't imagine anything but a sweep up next, but it is possible they may respect the push into center range here.

Euro may have some trouble here.

Sums it all up nicely. When will 'we' ever learn...
