picking top and tops is difficult for myself, I am best finding trends in the early stage and run with it where my target has an probability to get hit before my SL.....

Jack? try it with Van....

Tops aand bottoms are for sure ,, but for what most of us are trying to do here ,, the daily swing tops and bottoms are the best places to start watching the smaller stuff,, yea ,, eur been in a down trend ,,, but over all in this down trend it has went nowhere in months and months ,, so a if looking to play the trend ,, the daily chart swing highs are the place to look,, means one left a lot on table on the swings up to those daily chart swing highs ,,, for those placing tiny trades ,, anything threw on because it " looked " like it was the time the bottom fell out ,,, now those taking away from the good trades taken where they should ev been ,,, lousy entries taking awy from good entries ,, and in the end ruining a decent bottom line ,, have to take some profit here and there ,, some of tht no break no shake thing

See those patterns dont work ,, bullshit ,, it comes down to no break ,, better watch it or take your profit and find a reason to get back to the highs ,,not sit on the damn thing ,,, got above tht weekly average ,, time to head back other way ,, it is a chess match after all ,, no one with same agenda ,, but there is some shit tht gets respected over and over each way ,,many times tht 1st area in circle ends up being the shoulder ,, but until below some shit again ,, its going up ,, bout the time all the pro s calling for the moon ,, then it will be about due ,,happens with out fail,,good tune man

example of something besides a crypto ,,, well look at tht ,, same shit different instrument ,, just one of the few simple points I try to make ,, shit is the same crap over and over ,, there is nothing new same ole same ole ,, roll with it ,, thts it ,, a high a low a mid point ,, a level and a reason to buy it or sell it ,, roll the way the mkt is going at the time ,, dont fight it ,,look at any thing your gonna see a version of the same ole shit ,,nothing mystic or magical want to know where its going ,, look at where the fuck its been ,,anybody can do tht ,, sure cut down on a lot of latest and greatest trading bullshit jargon getting sold ,, or cut into the ones tht cant trade so they sell some other bullshit to get by lol,, not easy but it can be tracked and one can get good enough to keep a bunch ,, just a little practice

Dig, one can be a bull and in a bull trend he can fail..... the timing is essential to trading.

This level, that pattern and so on...... are only a way to give a justification to our interpretation..... but real trading has nothing to do with interpretations.....real trading is about do in it consistently for a profit.....that is the beauty of trading.....no BS only facts.

I can also have a wrong interpretation of the direction of the market and still able to make money if my timing is good.

Said that everyone can make a few winning trades, the issue is can me make them with consistency?

I do not believe the market is doing the the same thing all the time (if it did we will be all rich) because the conditions are never the same and requires a proper act based on experience not on interpretations.

Said that, I use to drink Jack, but I do not drink anymore.....some beer sometime before dinner or lunch, I use them as an aperitif....

Long long ,, term palyers with billions to play with and billions to get payed interest on every single day ,, and to get payed a little bit to borrow more billions from a central back who synthetically has got a negitive interest rate ,, where would be the best area to whack a mkt and just sit back and collect ,, do believe tht is the monthly 200 s in there ,, happens to be a midpoint of all the data one see s when they pop a eur monthly chart up ,, go figure ayy ,, I play in dirt ,, was born at nite ,, but it wasent last nite and Im damn good at improvising and adapting and overcoming ,, a little common sense goes a long ways too ,, in everything in life ,,even in trading ,, one just has to have the balls to apply it and forget the normal trading bullshit one has heard since day one of looking at a chart

Yes.

there are trends nearly every day, some shorter some longer, if they are not we fade the extremes...simple, those are the best probably trades, if one has the strength to stick with those with time he will make money........

The issue is how do we determine strength and range? well as you said this is where the trader comes in....

That is the main point my friend ,, the mkt is your atm machine ,, make it work for you ,, most days it will work either way ,, it is tht one or 2 days a week the big move comes ,, the weekly move with the bigger overall swing at the time ,,, those are the days to roll with the mkt,,usually associated with the big news item or fuel drop for the week ,, it dont matter what it says it just provides the spark to move the mkt where its going at the time
