new_trader said:Although I only think I understand it my main concern is to learn how to recognise and prepare for it. Much like the weather. In doing so, trading becomes much more of an art than a science. Abandoning charts and indicators is the best thing I have done since I began day trading.
"Abandoning charts....." would you care to expand on that ? Tom Williamson has a brilliant book, along the same lines of that Albert labos's teachings ( whatever you may or not may think of him - for me the Jury is out). i am inclined towards these darksiders, but still have not got to grips with trading without indicators. Tom's book goes into detail about how correctly to read the signals, no idea what Albert was talking about in his Journey from the basement though although I got the vague jist of it. Makes compelling reading though.
