    We will try to discuss the SP500 chart and see what we come up with in relation to previous posts - after this we can try a different market like crude oil or EUR.USD an see what we come up with.

    I will start the discussion by posting the monthly chart of the SP 500. This is from a spreadbetting account and I believe the data is sufficient to relate/discuss the ES.

    If someone wants to post the SP500 cash or ES chart then feel free to do so.

    All are welcome to join in and post whatever they want, the only thing I would ask is that no person tries to cut down any other person, as that is just plain damn silly and does nothing but waste time, which I am sure none of us want to do.

    YK,

    It appears you are still struggling as per your journal thread, and I do not want to confuse you anymore, hence I do not post that much there.

    I think that the whole plan must come together, and if the basics are not working, then it will never work out no matter how hard you try.

    Lets forget about above posts, as no person joined in then I just left it, as I do not like talking to myself. A recent post in the obvious thread has led me think about what you are doing and what you are trying to achieve. You seem an honest and hard working person, and you deserve to succeed, same as any other person who puts in so much time and effort to better oneself.

    So, if I was trading crude oil, what do YOU think is the FIRST thing I would do.

    I will show you, but I want you to have a guess first.

    Think hard before you answer as I will be asking you why you said what you did.

    YK,

    We all have to go thru ups and downs - it is what we do when in such situations that matters most.

    Long long time ago,
    Down did, fall the snow,
    See it now, as it did fall,
    Remember then, so so small

    When I was sad, to make me glad,
    I would but stray, and start to play
    On train did ride, thru valleys wide,
    My car it be, big red Ferrari

    So then I grow, and not that slow,
    New words do learn, I must be stearn,
    They teach me such, I know so much,
    Not long before, I owe much more

    But when was small, no owe at all,
    And happy be, my friends and me,
    Now we don't speak, like broken beak,
    Why so it be, so sad you see

    To change the way, one must not stray,
    The drink is swift, a short term lift,
    When in the state, all things are great,
    But day will come, when just a bum

    First step to see, waste of money,
    Then think of toy, bring kids such joy,
    We all do stray, small few ok,
    So know you too, that I was you

    I could type more, more than a score,
    Bout other stuff, that more so tough,
    But matter no, what I say though,
    What matter all, is YOU stay tall,

    The say can help, but all do yelp,
    All they can see, is damn money,
    To come to see, what must you be,
    Think real real slow, about the snow:)
