The Twisted Ramblings Of An Old Man

So, it's not really a blog. It's more of a rant. And truth be told, I'm not really that old. Going to be 42 this year. But trading is a young man's business - in trader's years, 42 is old, more like 75 or so. I feel that entitles me to grump about the hypocrisy and problems in the trading education business.  So here is my two cents worth on all that is wrong in my industry.


Indicator Salesmen
Don't know what charting platform you use. Mine has literally hundreds of indicators built in. They are free. The formulas used to calculate them are in the public domain, and in most cases have been for decades. They also typically don't work if you use them as they were intended to be used.

Your broker wants to see you succeed, so he points you in our direction because he knows over the long haul, education is your best chance of succeeding.
 
Or maybe you've been trading for some time and have a fairly good understanding of technical analysis or fundamentals. You have purchased courses on indicators, programmed your own indicators, bought indicators, studied indicators, and yet somehow, you still can't find success. Perhaps you are here because you are looking for information on Price Action trading.
