SoC #7

  • its cold its warm its snowy then sunny the market is up and down
  • we are on a sideways ride
  • bad news isn’t so bad, and good news doesn’t particularly linger
  • the winter is taking its toll on me
  • I can sense the weakness as I shop online for things I don’t need
  • and daydream about vacations to far away hot places
  • with beaches like the ones in the pictures I was sent in email
  • with a kangaroo, yes, a kangaroo that seemed to swim out into the ocean
  • and I found myself envious
  • a first for me – to be envious of a kangaroo
  • which makes me think of the story about the origins of the word
  • when the white traveler asked the pygmie and he answered what sounded like ‘kang a roo’
  • which meant ‘I don’t know’
  • so I’m envious of –I don’t know– what
  • which is neither here nor there
  • and this stream of thought seems to be mired somewhere between winnie the pooh and Dr Seuss
  • yet I haven’t had a drink today
  • or maybe that is the problem or the solution…
  • just rearranged my 4x trading charts layouts
  • and I like it but the first trade is agin’ me
  • as I lose 8 cents in my pursuit to reinvent the trader in me
  • and am glad 4x allows for microtrades
  • as 8 cents is cheap to pay for the lesson I just (re)learned about trading ranges, simple moving averages, and the fractal nature of time and prices
  • which makes me think just like a kid on a swing
  • its easy to see the turns closer to their apexes as well as take a non-blurry photo of them being so into their present moment
  • just that the pendulum of trading has so many participants
  • and I only have a handful of kids I’d photograph
  • and usually just one at a time
  • yet the market reveals itself in moments just like a girl you are enamored with and you just know exactly what to do next.
