Zero.
Your chart contains only open, close, high and low data, formed as candles.
Magical thinking at its best zero knowledge, zero sense, but a lot of magic.Ignored
Hi ryuryu,
Sorry mate I was just nibbling on some dinner (6.15pm here in Brizzie).
And you "know" my posts take a while, that's just me lol .
Look 9 pips is nothing in the bigger scheme of things, I understand. I do like to pick them up though when the market gives them up freely,
or at least be aware of them sitting there waiting. (5-10 pips is an okay trade for me & my style of scalping).
Here we go.
Magicians & magic
Real magicians, market magicians … or just plain old magicians
Everyone has seen a magic act.
Some know how the magic trick is done.
Some are mesmerised by the trick, and they gasp lol.
I believe there was once a magicians trick where they made
an elephant disappear
from in front of our very eyes
How is that possible lol
Well apart from the “BLIND SPOT" that EVERY person has in their own eye
Where if you put a small dot on a piece of A4 paper and then move the paper slowly from your far right to your far left across your eyes 6 inches out maybe
At some point
the dot will disappear and you will not see it on the piece of paper
Is that magic, hardly, it is physiological
Is that why some folks see things (on a chart), that others don’t ? I do not know.
This is up to each trader to work out for themselves
(AND please, traders, dont PAY any folk to show you some trading, you will be prouder of yourself when you work it all out, yourself)
So,
Is there that elephant (above) that disappears on our charts, at any point in time,
I don’t see all the elephants lol, but I do see some. And I can just see them now, I don't look all too hard for them anymore.
Back to the old GBPJPY chart from last Friday, cherry-picked today, because it was such a perfect example
of Market Mechanics & behaviour that it SHOULD be studied over & over, maybe.
The solid GAP from Thursday, was just hanging there, like a pink elephant in the room I guess, on our charts for ALL of us to see, should we "look"
for 24 HOURS it sat there and was going to be taken out by close of business Friday on the final run up = Gold !
We must all acknowledge how easy is it to miss, what is right there in front of our very eyes.
And we must work hard to remove our own blind spots (physical AND logical).
What some people think is MAGIC, is usually and OFTEN just our own … UNUSED HUMAN OBSERVATION.
I hope just this one bit of magic will do, it was sitting there in plain sight.
