Does Not Compute

Best thoughtful article I've read in a long time. Thank you.

Everything happens for a reason. Universe is a rational place and it does make sense.

In the short term, random and weird stuff can happen but in the end it will all come to the point where everything makes sense.

The question is: Are you patient, smart and strong enough to do your best until the end?

yes and no.
Everything happens for a reason simply because it happened, that is the reason.
It will make sense because we need it to make sense so given time and more information we will each find the reasons we wish to believe made it happen. Those reasons will not be the same for everyone. This is why in trading currency some will say buy when others say sell. each has a reason. Each will be correct given enough time and both decisions will be proven correct. Logic is simply a point of view of one person and will be irrational to another. If you are a long term trader holding a trade for months or years even, you will find my logic as a scalper to trade in opposite direction as your trade, irrational. You will support your logic with charts, lines, indicators etc. I will support my trade decision with the same things. Just different points of view from same information. Your decision to hold long term makes no sense to me. My decision to scalp makes no sense to you. Neither is wrong.

letters and words compute with each other. Numbers and geometry compute with each other. The mistake in this article, as it is in trading or anything else is expecting them to compute with each other

But that’s how the world works.

Some things just don’t compute.

A fine article, indeed. Maybe we all need a bit adjustment to avoid imbalanced cognition when we face the politics-driven economy instead of supply/demand , or being faced with the reality, logic + reason + a little absurdity = making sense....
