Not sure what the guppy method is so can't answer. And I have seen those optical illusion type charts and they appeal to me on a purely aesthetic level but in the interest of keeping it as simple as possible, I don't think they're necessary..... @Big Mike wrote an indie a couple years ago called the futures.io (formerly BMT)wave. It makes a nice colored wave that creates an illusion of waves....I kinda like it and think it could be used in a similar manner as what i am doing....

The long I passed on is almost at 4XR although I would have taken it off at 1XR as it was a counter trend trade. A two bar trail still has you in this trade....
and if you take the trade at the confirmation area, then 4XR has been achieved already.

Price Action. Folds in the tape make seeing Support and Resistance easy. Follow the tape to be with the trend. Nothing predicts the future. Can you trade with less clutter?

2 more, didn't manage these as well as I could have but ended the day nicely. The double top area was giving me some hestiation. I thought it was long but just couldn't hold it on the first long entry.

I really enjoyed your post ... Integrity. Excellent post thanks.
I read a lot and there are some excellent books on how our brains work out there at present. But a slightly older one I discovered by accident speaks to the area you are talking about so you might enjoy reading it at some stage; Strangers to Ourselves: Discovering the Adaptive Unconscious.
It has enriched my view or the conflicts we face in this high pressure job we call trading.
Been busy lately, not to much time to post. I'll pick up again next week......was one and done today....sold the very tippy top of the sell of, took my profit at 3XR and closed it down....i got about 25% of the move...oh well. I got what I came for so thats good.
Cheers

Took a break from coding (learning really) to visit futures.io (formerly BMT).... Spent the last hour and a half reading through some of your journal. Just thought I'd take the time to say I really appreciate what you say and that you take the time to say it.
In short, thanks Panda

I have approximate answers, possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty of different things. But I'm not absolutely sure of anything and there are many things i don't know anything about.
