That's always been a problem with my assessment of the market, I sometimes see the forest, but then might miss out on a tree, and when I focus on the tree, I miss the forest.
Its something I am aware of and work on it everyday. Its just finding the right balance and right now, these are the concepts I am learning from the Course.
I've talked with Mike and he said not to panic as the first 10 weeks of the 20 week course is focused on concepts. Once I tried to apply their first Junior level strategy, I was freaking lost cause I thought I knew the basics. How wrong I was. There's like a checklist just to take a trend line trade, which is why I am emphasizing the missed trend lines from today as stated as their is a "piercing trend line" trade setup they teach.
Its funny, what I am experiencing is not a linear progression of my comprehension and application of the concepts, its left turn, right turn, 2 steps back, 1 step forward, 180, all over the place.
Its discouraging none the less, this part sucks and when I get past this, it gets easier, I've been down this path before with my other issues. This is not any different.
At least now, moving forward, I know what to focus on again.
Just wait till Gann levels and extension start getting introduced and put into the mix.
Seriously am drinking from a fire hose when I think about it.
Now that I have a better understanding of the concepts being taught, I "jumped" ahead to see what the "Ice Cream" Trade setup is all about and I found one in the NG on a 60m chart.
Pretty interesting stuff they are teaching.
I thought the Piercing Trend Line Trade was good, this "I dropped my Ice Cream" is even better!
Come to think about it, I was looking for a short with the marked area on the 15m, I just was not sure how to put the trade together as I was looking at the retrace back into the R-Zone and I did look across the higher time frames and did not think the 60m had clean space to trade into so I negated to pay any attention to the 240m and its space.
