2009.09.10 DRAIN THE BANKS - LIKE A RAT

[TheRumpledOne]

These candles may already have a name.. but I don't recall.

Looks like an interesting trigger.

The shaded area is for the last red and last blue turn bars.

The price boxes are the short (red) and long (blue) trigger prices.

Does this help you see?

Coded a TURN multimeter.

Price within 20 pips of the daily low (ClLo <= 20) - that is OPPORTUNITY

Current price - current daily low is less than 20 pips.

"Look, for example, at this elegant little experiment. A rat was put in a T-shaped maze with a few morsels of food placed on either the far right or left side of the enclosure. The placement of the food is randomly determined, but the dice is rigged: over the long run, the food was placed on the left side sixty per cent of the time. How did the rat respond? It quickly realized that the left side was more rewarding. As a result, it always went to the left, which resulted in a sixty percent success rate. The rat didn't strive for perfection. It didn't search for a Unified Theory of the T-shaped maze, or try to decipher the disorder. Instead, it accepted the inherent uncertainty of the reward and learned to settle for the best possible alternative.

The experiment was then repeated with Yale undergraduates. Unlike the rat, their swollen brains stubbornly searched for the elusive pattern that determined the placement of the reward. They made predictions and then tried to learn from their prediction errors. The problem was that there was nothing to predict: the randomness was real. Because the students refused to settle for a 60 percent success rate, they ended up with a 52 percent success rate. Although most of the students were convinced they were making progress towards identifying the underlying algorithm, they were actually being outsmarted by a rat."

"Now, 2 patterns of market behavior happen on a regular basis:

1) the price breaks to new high's (or low's)

2) the price reverses from new high's (or low's)

They happen regardless of time frame (with the obvious limitations explained above)

They are phenomena that can be exploited without the fear if found out by others, that they might cease to exist." - H. Rearden

TRO, here's something that I was wondering that you will want to know.

I have been studying and working on the following :
-New rat
-Old rat
-Signalbender
-NLA

I tried to combine everything I've learned in such a way it all works together. This is what I got so far.

e.g. for long trades on GBPUSD
1- GBPUSD price near LOW of D1
2- GBPUSD M5 Signalbender shows price slowing + starting to go UP
3- Majority of GBP pairs also have their prices near LOW of D1
4- Majority of GBP pairs also have their M15 candles + M60 candles showing GREEN

Makes a lot of sense to me for an extremely high proability trade. This might also be the long term answer to whiplash many novice traders like me get. I observed #3 by accident when I was watching EURUSD, GBPUSD and AUDUSD for almost a month now. When all 3 hit their peaks/bottoms, I could easily do an old rat trade. When only 1 hit their peak/bottom, my trade often gets stopped out by a further breakout.

What do you think?
