yo digs....i now have like 3 million levels across my screen (covering everything u have taught me).........i might as well just have my levels and no candles....coz its a sea of levels!! (joke!)

So basically, every minute or so, i have potentially a new decision to make on whether something is gonna "hold or fold" baby! So, my question is (im getting there) - what are the levels that are major for u, and which ones do u think are less important? I know u love Qs, i havent mangaged to get them through my indis yet.....but i have daily, weekly, monthly open/h/l/pp and W and M cams

in hindsight not an easy day, that is why taking in consideration the actual market condition is an essential factor.
trading is simple but is simple is not easy.

Right there with you bro. Add in a buttload of moving averages, structure, potential patterns, about 12 different timeframes LOL... and then it's like I don't know if I'm coming or going, or my ass from a hole in the ground LOL...

Digs, don't take this as a negative, I know you are doing everything you can to help us noobs out and can't tell you how much we appreciate it. It's pretty obvious that you've been doing this for a long time and know your shit from shinola. You are eager to help, want to see your peeps doing well, man it's fucking hard to find someone who is willing to do that for nothing other than friendship and it speaks of your generosity. Not to mention your time spent, know you have a lot of irons in the fire for sure, got a whole goddamn farm to run.. still trying to figure out when you sleep LOL...

Never met ya face to face, but I can tell you're a damn good person, and you want to help the Average Joe get it figured out a little quicker because you've been there, done that, had your dick stomped into the ground and managed to bounce back and take over the world LOL

Maybe there is a way to break it down into the basics... and work it up from there as we learn more. Start with these "X" number of important timeframes we should be looking at... these basic levels.. these basic MA's... priority stuff one should be aware of at all times... all the shit you have been talking about here for years, but maybe broken down into fundamental basic yet priority shit that everyone should be looking at.

In a former life, I used to race cars and build race cars for a living. There were lots of opportunities to instruct and take new guys out on the track with them riding shotgun and show 'em how we do it, balls to the walls and not an inch of tarmac left to spare (sometimes we used the grass lol)...

One thing I found is that right after I did that, they immediately tried to go out on the track and do the same thing... and inevitably ended up in the kitty litter or out in the sticks LOL. Well hell, here I was, a race driver instructing new guys, but had been racing for so long that I had forgotten the process of learning how to race.

After I saw how my students responded to riding with me, I backed it off a few notches and worked on the basics... braking, setting the car up for the turn without upsetting the chassis, corner entry, hitting the apex, accelerating out of the turn... and we built it up gradually from there.

I realized that by taking them out on track and giving it most of what she got, that for them it was like trying to take a sip of water from a fire hose.

That's not an excuse to babysit people and hold their hand the entire way... racing requires that you have some sort of fundamental drive that will help guide you there, and a willingness to put in the time and effort to understand it. If you want to be at the pointy end of the field, there has to be desire and something deep inside that will help carry you there, to fill in the gaps that maybe cannot be taught by an instructor.

Some guys have it in their blood. Some guys eventually get there with a lot of diligence and dirt under their fingernails. Some guys never get there and move on to do something else.

Trading is a lot like racing.

Every body can get a hourly and a 15 min chart ,, start with these ,,, ,,they are gonna not divide out perfect if ya get calculator out ,, but they will look the same and hit to the same level on each chart ,,, visuals a huge thing in trading since scaling changes drastically from time frame to time frame ,,, any body can find the daily open ,, just make sure its based on 5 pm new york time ,, will try and get longer chart when I get time ,,,, the yellow is the weekly average,, gonna say for the most part all over trading trying to catch every wiggle ,,, probably partly my fault ,, hate to see pips go to waste lol,,, main thing is going with the mkt ,,, above weekly average one is buying below it one is selling ,,, simple enough ,,one wants to sell or buy as close to tht weekly average as possible ,,in the chop almost always playing between white and blue till ya get the spike tht finishes it off then the way the mkt is really going kicks in usually more towards eod when a move against mkt traspired most of the day . all I got time for atm ,, there is stochs but dont need them for the basics ,,dont want any more confusion atm
