Hey guys ,i think this thread is very interesting cause it is the main idea of my system,time doesn't matter PA only so you cant use Candlesticks alone or renko alone you have to use them both to avoid choppy and low volatile market so i started a thread recently that discusses my system that i have been using for more than 4 years.it is called extreme analysis system.

There is a secret (I shouldn't be using the word secret, but it is a secret). In the past they discovered that as long as you "buy above a line and sell below a line" that you actually have a greater statistical edge. Now this statistical edge was never released, and will never be released to the public. In discovering this powerful concept, they invented.... drum roll... The Candlestick. {image} Have you ever wonder, when you have a line graph, why in the hell would you invent the candlestick!!! ? Clever Japanese people, they never did tell you...

Illusions hide great power

Illusions are important because they can hide great power. Only few people can see what is behind illussions and that is how it is.

"This is the construct, it is our loading program"
"What is real? How do you define real? If you are talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see then real is simply electrical signal interpreted by your brain"

Is your brain lying to you? Depends.
All it takes to switch from a lie to truth is becoming aware.
It is not about a logical question to solve or a math exercise, it is not about understanding.
It is about becoming one with what it is.

Its very interesting opinion. We all flick between different timeframes trying to spot some trading opportunity while we are missing the most important variable. Price and momentum.

You must be more precise when asking me something. What do you mean with "this"? What is "this"?

That was an attempt at humor.
Remember Neo asking, "This isn't real?"

Yes, the time frame - it invented changes in the graph. We bind something that changes unevenly (price) to what is constantly changing, and evenly (time). We do this in order to note all prices changes. Using a graph Renko, then we get rid of time and on a large piece of chart.

To counter the argument, I would say that timeframes can be very significant, depending on how you trade.

When Frankfurt opens, you know they have no choice but to place orders as part of normal business.

London lunchtime is dead.

30 min before US stocks open, currency orders start flowing in.

Positions get closed out at London close.

If you are following the large institutions you have to be sensitive to their daily business cycle.

This might influence timeframes that you consider using i.e - 4hr = US session split into two bars.
If you're not in the 5% yet it's because you have to try 95% harder.
