QuoteDislikedI think this explosion of the search for the filter and making mouteki a holy grail, was generated by moutekis silence
Quoting Akuma99DislikedYou are probably right .. and how much to bet that these same traders overtrade when the market is quiet as well? .... anyhow it seems my ramblings message came across to some anyway.Ignored
Quoting JarretDislikedPeter,
I watched you try to keep order upon that thread...good try, you can not please all....
I gained from your insight and patience and would like to thank you.Ignored
Quoting kenmaniaDislikedSo far it is. But three weeks isn't nearly any time to tell anything.
I believe my thinking is evolving, though. I took a $3k practice account to $4500 with this week's trading, and at least I realize from this example that I probably have some money-management issues (instead of thinking what a great trader I must be ).
The same One who gives me the ability to get wealth is the One who's helping me get my head screwed on straight.Ignored
Quoting PeterFMDislikedI appreciate the kind words, Dial, but without sounding sycophantic, I've a long way to go before I would class myself as great. I feel that most of the dozens of hard working contributors to this forum have opened my eyes to the true meaning of the word 'sharing'.
A lot of us first came here to take what we could, and it's the ethos of this place that converts us into 'givers'.
Anywho, enough of the mutual back-slapping, on to see if my trade on EURCAD is still heading in my direction.Ignored

I find it interesting that the quote above says "shall MEN give unto your bosom". Not God, but men! I've given here at the Factory, but what I've received back from others here far exceeds what I've given.
Mouteki gave. May he reap his due reward.
Quoting smjonesDislikedAkuma, I agree with your point... Some just cannot put in the time to see what works and what is an actual improvement. I read a post in one of the threads where he had one trade go against the system. He wanted an explanation of how this could have happened. When I responded that no system is 100% He responded with he had 3 tades in a row go bad. As though that is a big enough sample to judge. Better start the filter process.
Oh well. What is that saying? Oh yea, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink."Ignored
Quoting TheWickerDislikedYou can also trade mouteki only when going with the trend, you don't have to take the opposite direction. A matter of choice.Ignored
Quoting Akuma99DislikedYep I know what you mean, now let me make on thing clear, I don't intend to give the impression that I am here to bash up new traders, we all start out somewhere, I only started this thread to help give newer traders an early insight into the pitfalls that lay ahead if they approach things the wrong way and mouteki's method just seemed like a great example.Ignored
Quoting turbokaosDisliked...
I don't claim to the be the best or biggest trader out their but I was lucky enough to learn from some of the few who are managing from 10mil to 100mil w/ certified track records doing 75% a year and if your intreasted in open an acount the minim is 1m+.

Quoting BemacDislikedAre we to assume from this that you believe Mouteki {with Stohs added} is a better system than you learned from those guys?Ignored
Quoting diallistDislikedNicely put wallym! It goes along with my post here:

A question for you Grammarians and/or English Majors. I can't remember this. What is it called when a phrase is taken to the extreme in order to emphasize a point?
Two examples:
(1)
Wallym said:
It's never the method...It's always the trader...
While the literal truth is:
It's rarely the method...It's nearly always the trader...
(2)
I frequently say:
Individual trades are meaningless.
Where the literal truth is individual trades do have some meaning but it is irrelavent when compared to a long string of trades.
What is the word? What is the name for extreme statements made to emphasize the point.

Quoting milan47DislikedHi Dial
I read your post this Saturday morning. Accordingly I followed your attached thread. My agent is telling me that I should sue you for an unauthorized biography. The stupid trader, that's me. The analogy with the driver, tires and the dead battery is great. I was changing my tires probaby 20 times or more. Then I not only gave up on the car, but I smashed it to pieces.
Losing an entire account? That is sick. It could never happen to me! Such a person should defrag his brain daily! Guess what. One day I pushed the wrong key on my platform and the entire budget of Utah tanked in 30 seconds. My apologies to the Mormons. So there. My Lotus was picked up by a repo man. Or maybe it was a Pinto. I don't remember, I was in a coma.
Anyway, man you are so right it makes me sick. Stick with a system and know it like your wife's bad habits. Instead of celebrating diversity with a division of indicators go and sleep wit Mouteki charts and with what Daerus wrote about the potential filters for that system. Pick up a currency pair that is sexy enough to trade and the rest will take care of itself.
Excuse me for venting, but finally only one thing. Money is important, we all know that it is somewhere near the oxygen. On the other hand, the fact that I achieved something is equally important. It makes me feel great that I made 10-15 pips by following the naked system.
Thank you Dial. You should have slapped me 5 years ago and I could be sitting on my private beach practicing charting methods with Faith Hill. After all I am a country music loving redneck.Ignored
