As usual, only look at the text and not at the chart OR look at the chart and not read the text, you know the drill
Stop taking life seriously Life stopped taking you seriously a long time ago It's all just speculation, run with the herd like sheep, stampede like elephants, swim against the current like salmon Once you find yourself being Truman Burbank, playing Neo in Groundhog-day, you'll know that fiction comes before fact, for fiction writes life. Dreams are real and...
Trading is just one of the many ' hobbies ' i have or had, another one is picking berries and nuts. Now being Autumn is/was busy season, everywhere you looked, nuts. Hazelnuts, Walnuts, Chestnuts, NUTS. On bushes and trees, in the fields, the forest, on the street, in the houses .. even most of my neighbors are nuts (err .. different story .. yet VERY much related...
Why it is impossible to find the "Holy Grail" , the 100% success strategy . There are several "schools" of trading, basing their entries and exits on sometimes completely contradictory signals/indicators/numbers/planets and whatnot. 'Mostly' being self-fulfilling in nature (if enough 'see' the same thing, trade the same thing, their own actions -anticipating it,...
Has been a while since I last looked at UKOIL (should we have used Illeism ?). Not an in depth anal-ysis, just a demonstration of how the same strategy can behave on different kind of "assets" For a bit more details of this so called "strategy" see here:
A little tutorial based on the (my) notion of: "Do your own research" "Don't listen to others (too much)" "Do it yourself, you can't rely on others" aka "If you want something done right, do it yourself" So there is a tremendous amount of information out there, plenty of strategies one can use, but what works and what not? How to be sure? Don't just assume...
Cutting your loss can be hard but has to be done before it ruins everything. You can try to "bag-hold" or "cost-average" ad infinitum (sometimes this might even work), but you will more than likely face the point where your portfolio is wrecked. Compare trading to relationships: Ever had a friend or partner who, even if they were aware of their problems,...
One sees random numbers and puts arbitrary value onto them, thinking this cognitive bias is a gift. Using this gift would, of-course, be insider trading (by their reasoning). Therefor using the gift would be thievery (by their reasoning). Stealing money from poor ignorant retailers oblivious to the shenanigans going on in this business. If one places their...
Initial Capital = $10.000 Commision = maker fee 0.1% Entries are based on ... some stuff Take Profit, Stoploss and Trailing are based on .. various reasons Can go LONG and/or SHORT Works on every timeframe and 'asset' to varying degree.
One for the Long-term / very basic trend anal-ysis End of year 2019 around 2100 End of year 2021 around 1500 depends on A LOT of things of course
RED dotted line found support in the past .. possibly resistance now (already 2nd attempt now) ascending GREEN triangle targeting 9k or if falling out under triangle (since Corona pushed it back down in its orginal large descending channel) ascending PURPLE channel targeting 8K *
Today in our series of ridi.... meh Had it laying around for a few days didn't finish it
Now 'everyone' is fleeing the markets .. is it a good idea to infest Gold ? There certainly seems to be quite some volume rushing in at the moment. What happened the last time(s) ? 2007/2008 Housing bubble .. Gold vs. SPX 2000/2001 Dot.com bubble Gold vs. SPX
Chart is Logarithmic In Linear-mode, triangle is perfectly symmetrical with 'apex' at 10k (Hello 10k .. (reference to my older idea's, when 6k was apex) ) Watch for breakage of parallel channel (downside = invalidation of everything) and triangle (again downside=invalidation of everything and upside = good))
very versatile (yet next to impossible to set up) multitimeframe strat.
