Barjon I am sorry I am very busy at the moment but Iwillcome back to you on this one,I promise.
Right here we go, Your post 1362#
I do not know if you are tryiing in a very subtle way to pull my leg, playfully or otherwise.
I hope not, not for my sake, but for yours.
What you say in this post is a again a subtle detour and regrouping around an area
you should not be contemplating, but cannot resist returning to as the temptation for
you is to do so is too great for you not to succumb to it again.
This is because of your inabilities and is a consequence of your mindset and not mine, therefore it is your fault, and not mine, but I am willing to expand on this topic for your benefit and the benefit of the audience as well, and to my satisfaction.
What you are ultimately seeking is the perfect utopia. This utopia cannot be allowed to
exist because if such a programme could be developed the whole system of trading and
the methodologies applied to it would be forced to change, as it would convert everybody, that is, both the deserving and the undeseving at the same time into automatic winners
with zero effort As this is a zero sum game this cannot happen, and what is more, cannot be
allowed to happen.
But there are many individuals who persist with this idea, ad nauseum.
Their reasons for persisting vary.
On the consumer side there are those who persist either for devilment, teasing, taunting,
leg pulling, nuisance creation, interrupting, diversion, dislocation of discussion, or simply
through repeated and incidentally futile attempts to find a solution that may ultimately
exonerate them from thinking, from acting, and for assuming total responsibility for their
actions. This is the first reason.
The second reason is that there are many idividuals who are incapable of reasoning, logically deducing, deciding, and acting in accordance with the above again taking
total responsibility for their actions, but now become corrupted to an idea via a separate route, and it is this :~ As a consequence of not applying deep thought to the nature of what
it is we are involved in , they observe what appears to them to be repeated occurences.
They now persuade themselves that these repeated occurences can be accurately identified and quantified, without realising that these come in families as part of a complex series of alternatives and not as individual unique events. But to the untrained eye they appear so.
And, cruelly so, these events contain enough common features to persuade the persuadees that it is valid and reasonably justifiable ground for them to create (what are outside the darksiding fraternity regarded as) signals and indicators., or more TIC, "signs and marvels!"
These duffers invent these things and disseminate these ideas that are seen to function on occasion but mysteriously not on others and this baffles the audience. As the level of awareness of the audience is not suffieciently high in order to surmount this riddle chain therefore all sorts of excuses and reasons can be plausibly offered to curve fit a reply that is likeley to satisfy those who follow the wrong route.
The general audience, whose fault it is not, being victim to their own inabilities, now get frustrated as they find out this route is not a solution that can be consistently reilied upon
for the reasons given above.
The Duffers, we shall affectionately call them, are so are oblivious of the efffects this has on the persuadees as what ideas they have generated are not to the standard of consistency and reliability hoped for by the persuadees, and both parties can be exonerated in large measure for their misdemeanours on the basis that they do not know any better and therefore persist, also attempting to impose their half baked ideas on others. That's alright. Each to his own. We all have to learn as I have said before, and a girl has to kiss many toads before she can find a prince. None of this above is malignant.
But what is decidedly malignant is when these ideas are presented as automatic panaceas that are guaranteed to de stimulate an already corrupted and indolent
audience to search further by dereliction of personal effort in self governance.
There is another category of Duffers to whom we cannot possibly extend either
affection or indeed respect who see this gap in perception and take advantage of
it to their advantage and to the disadvantage of their victims by succumbing to allowing
these victims to have what they want, and by providing it, intstead of having the moral courage and rectitude to provide what they need instead, even if the medicine is
decidedly unpalatable.
This is what I am doing here, by not teaching, but instead by making strenous efforts
to raise the the individual and collective awareness of the audience in the hope the
audience will respond and succeed in having realisations which is the correct route
to dealing with problems and arriving at a higher level of understanding of what obstacles exist and the correct route to overcome them which is the opposite to what you bring up,
and this is an uphill struggle because it is against what is the natural propensity to do otherwise, which is why really accomplished darksiders are in the minority.
So the answer is negative, because even if artificial intelligence were able to map all of this out that you have to do by applying yourself to it like the others do on the other side of the
trade no sooner would this be complete that the whole scenario would have to be changed
in order to return it again to be a zero sum game. Very little thought has to be applied to
arrive at the conclusion that it cannot be anything else in order for it to be guaranteed to exist and to be available to all.
Furthermore the idea of automated or automatic trading which is a disguised extension of
formulas, indicators, signals and marvels is not compatible with this thread which is
devoted to the opposite, but which sadly appears difficult if not impossible to everyone except an elite minority to follow.
I do not see it as difficult, and you cannot complain that I don't tell you everything. The question is whether you are able to take any notice or not.
This is not my fault, it is yours. You have to change the way you are before you can change the way you think. And what is more, you have as a consequence change all of this in order
to be able to change the way you act, I cannot do it for you, you have to do it for yourself.
So there you have it, blunt, honest and to the point, you cannot ask for more, if this does not make you sit bolt upright and think about it I don't know what would.
That is all.
