Disliked{quote} If this is true then just like CJ, GEFX and many others are claiming...we would see patterns, and I agree with you except when you start stating that these "special patterns" are outside of the purview of objective analysis. Somehow only our brains can detect them but our machines and test cannot, the market is so special it is a language, a living organism, a place where all the big money create traps.... forgive me but it doesn't sound right to me. if in fact the market acted the way you say it acts a simple runs test...Ignored
Successful trading is only part science, and alot more art and performance oriented discipline very similar to individual sports. When you are at your best, you don't think at all, you just perform. The subconscious mind tells you what to do. You just use that huge library of memories stored in you brain over the years. Thousands of patterns...situations..mistakes, good trades, bad trades.....everything you have ever seen, read or heard, all memories, and naturally you know what to expect, and when the probabilities are in your favor.
The human brain is just AWESOME compared to computers! And we don't even understand how it works! Computers are only better at fast calculations(dry numbers) and processing large amount of data... nothing else.
Why would you even expect the machine to detect the patterns? This will never happen.. just not possible....This is like expecting the computer to come up with idea or invent something . You need artificial inteligence for this, and we dont have it (yet).
