Avoid unreasonable debt.
It weakens our self-reliance.

I am in pain, but that’s a story for another day. I assume a lot of shorts are too, if there are any remaining alive. Stayin’ alive, the last poster child, seems like just yesterday…

Strong Armed again by the invisible hand.
Martin Armstrong is a new found voice of value to me. I will continue to study people smarter than I am, as that’s how I will learn something.
A few comrades have kindly offered to teach me about the markets.
The reality is we are the only one’s who can help ourselves. Deliberate discipline, study, action, evaluation of our process. Study many approaches, find what works for us as an individual.
While I offer to help others , I also keep an open mind and try to learn from others as well as my own experience.
eminiwizard: Not calling tops… just awareness of next potential targets #EMWS $ES_F

Here was another: @eminiwizard why not come join us have full on trading room opened .. I noted my initial request was sent August 2013 and the response came in a few days ago, Pony express delivery.

I enjoy reverse engineering other trader’s calls.
Two minutes after finding the twitter post I went to my spreadsheets, clicked on the fibo page, and staring me in the face was a .61 extension for 2110 target.
Hey, why not make it 2014? “Market irony” as Mike remarked about 666.
Whether we get there or not and when is anyone’s guess. Presumably time and support ideas are important.
This is not to diminish The Rock’s thoughtful post, I respect his right to have an opinion.
The Elitist clique from the windy city think they have a lock on knowledge and the inner workings of the markets; They don’t. There are many under-followed great traders who share their keen insights. Kudos.
Toe to toe for five years, the Emini wizard System continues to combine the best of both worlds: Objective criteria and Intuition.
The WoMP (Worshippers of Market Profile) dont have all the answers either.

Those who whined about HFT and it’s effects on the market have still failed to grasp a simple solution: LTR.
We can adopt any style of trading and investing we want. Slippage and inefficiency is part of the game. We can choose not to play if we don’t like the rules.
The Long Train Runnin‘ has favored trend trades upside. The lovers of the market who embrace the reality of manipulation have fared better than the fighters.
When we get a correction, a more balanced approach will serve us well. Those weak hands attaching another car to the caboose better keep an eye out for a slow down in momentum.

The past month has seen a breakout from a trading range and a one way directional move within a stone’s throw of a target we have seen for awhile, 1953 to 1956.
The moving averages supported trade logic to buy pullbacks, using 1912.5 , then 1919.5 as support this week.
The law of equal over-compensation targeted 3800 this week in NQ.
Despite many complex calculations, Occam’s Razor suggests our base ideas can be learned within a week or two. Opening our mind and accepting the simplistic approach is much harder. Learned professionals from other occupations prefer to complicate things rather than see the obvious.
Carving out pieces of the action is far easier than trying to eat the whole turkey in one sitting.
We reviewed the importance of having a system that can produce net two to four points a day. A market that is moving offers better opportunity for capturing some profits from trading.
Step by step, acquiring knowledge and our commitment to Higher Education.
We noted we achieved two hundred points off the year’s low, and 100 points past the year’s open, last year’s settle and HOY 1846.5.
—————-
Astute traders may also perceive a more subtle relationship: We now have symmetry. Last year’s settle and it’s nearby gap is now TYM (This year’s middle).
