The state of contemporary music (if you want to call it that).

And the economy grinds on no matter how much central banks and politicians (doing their handlers - what do you think campaign contributions are - bidding) try to stop it.

One of the west's biggest failures will be from the assumption they can control earth's climate by reducing conventional energy creation. These asshats can't even tell you if it will rain for sure 5 days from now. How are they going to control an entire planets climate. Yet, NO one ever seems to call out their BS.

lol There's still good new bands, but a lot of modern music (top 40 shit) is just computer generated nonsense and autotune. It's garbage. It literally takes no talent to create. The singing is fake, no one is playing an actual instrument, etc. I guess the composition requires a certain degree of talent, but that level of talent isn't difficult to attain. And I'm not just saying this because I'm middle aged now, I didn't like top 40 garbage when I was in high school either. Metalheads tend to be contrarian by default. lol

My definition of what music should be is you step up in front of a live audience and actually play and sing. If you can't do that you fall into the just more noise category. What I think of the actual musicians goes into another category. From AAA+ to ain't worth diddly squat.

Does any of that stop an entry? Not really. Just need to be aware that price may run into some resistance/pressure/whatever in that area. BRN50 + the other things.

Better to start small while you refine your process and iron out the wrinkles. It's the wise way to go. A lot of people with little to no experience will put 100k into an account with pie in the sky dreams and end up losing it. Then they get soured on trading and think it's impossible. Not a good route to take.

Side note, I've known people who trade penny stocks unsuccessfully who've said "forex eats people alive". Okay, and penny stocks don't? LOL! Any market will eat you alive if you don't know what you're doing. Forex is NOT unique in that regard. People are silly.

So true.

Have been working on all this a long time. Then suddenly the last few months things are very clear.

Now working on some nuances I see.

As far as being eaten alive, been there, done that, you can keep the t-shirt.

I like what is going on in this Thread.
Putting forth and refining the Time and the timing for profit opportunities throughout the day, such as :
Peak Formations at significant levels and at the Equity Hour. ... And, you miss that time then checking for the later 'Low Hanging Fruit ' .
Trading After the News watching for LHF
Asian open for the J's .

If there are more... please add on !

Honestly, I had no clue that is what I was doing. After I think about it, I guess I am. Not from Burke's viewpoint, from my own whether naturally or subconsciously from my studies or combo matters not.

Looking for precision (at least as close as I can get) entries that put me right into the current momentum. A main component of this entire thread and endeavor.

Have been watching the MNQ on the side the past couple weeks and I think I will transition back to that instrument. It fits in fairly well with my framework and the moves are better no doubt.
