    Better than a million minds

    Are you better than a million minds? The chart below shows the recent extreme volatility on Wall Street. Millions of minds are into this ‘game’ of stocks/shares. They all want one important thing: profit on their positions. We don’t know these people (obviously); how can we. Yes – their interests may be represented by brokers…

  • This is worth your next million

    This is worth your next million

    Lots of new traders are looking for a magic solution to make money. They come into trading as a sort of flirtation – to see ‘if it works for them’. It doesn’t. There are no hard statistics on this but Charlie Burton estimates that about 80% of people who begin trading a live account will…

  • Sniper attack on Brent Crude

    It’s been a busy week for some traders. The following is a perfect kill with two shots to the ‘head’. The sceptical will argue that this is luck. But the topic of luck and chance will be explored further in another post coming soon. What is not shown in the 4H chart is the daily situation…

  • Where the big action is – 4H

    This is a short one. Over the last 3 years I’ve come to appreciate – and more so in the last year – that the really big action is on the 4H time frame.  Yes – for sure there is even bigger action on the daily (1D) time frame on lots of markets/charts. But 4H…

    Desensitisation, confidence and the crash

    Following a winning run of trades a new trader is likely to think or feel, “I can do this!” This sort of feeling is like to come especially if they were big wins emerging from difficult trades that were not expected to win.
