Seeing a couple new changes in this thread lately. Just got back from vacation and now ready to put all my efforts in learning how to trade.

First of someone tell me

WHY CAN'T I SEE WHAT MO and TRO are showing me. I have read the babypips thread NLA before it was deleted. I read the NLA and the LUKZ thread... on kreslik. And dojirock's thread, the espip threads and I would read MO's thread but all that stuff is over beyond my head. So with that is there anything else I am missing... I still believe I am not seeing anything even after 3 years of reading and trial and errors trying to trade...

I am addicted to reading NLA here knowing I am missing that one post....

"I am addicted to reading NLA here knowing I am missing that one post...."

That's your problem, your looking for "that one post"...which doesn't exist, those threads contain lot's of small "tools" / ideas that you can collectively use to build strategies around at appropriate times.
Life is just a journey

I gotcha. I agree.

So if ideas I get from it don't work. I just will blindly continue trying new concepts until something starts working consistently. Which I have been doing.

The main thing that sticks out is

Trade what you see.
when there is break out trade what price is doing..

Momentum trade wicks when price looks like its going the other way tricking the small time traders. Find entry in smaller areas.

Trade towards where profit is held.

Getting wicked into the trade.

Dragons 0 50 100 areas

My thing is even pointing things out what I have learned, I am quite
not sure if this is even the right first steps of where I am trying to
get at. I don know i will post charts maybe it will click soon for me

You realize these are opposite direction trades, right?
Meaning, you might want to only focus on one, instead of chasing both and getting mixed signals as a result, during each of these "opportunities"...

Yes totally. That's where I believe my downfall is. I read while trading and I read the threads I see concepts of how to trade and I wanna try each and everyone of those ways.

That and the fact that it sucks to sit on the sidelines and watch price MOVE without you trying to join in, all because you are waiting for price to get to YOUR preferred area to take an entry...
