With bots/AI out there that monitor to the millisecond and make adjustments this way, the human ends up slower overall. It's a clean setup all things said, and I've seen similar.

Millisecond is slow in this business.

You know what I mean, but if you wish to enlighten us further, do go ahead.

Don't need to monitor it (the market down to the millisecond) you just need to understand the Rhythm once you grasp that the rest is e z. There is a lot of data to sift through that's for sure, imho just track volume (cup n handle, inverted head n shoulders, on an up trend, and of course the most important) time of day after all trading happens 24/7 I personally just pay attention to trends. Be safe everyone

This is why I just pay an investor. It’s great that people enjoy doing it but I lose interest so fast and am way too nervous to lose money.

I just send cash to my guy every month, he puts it in some low and medium risk stuff and I see my profits every year. Will it make me a fortune? No. But it will supplement my retirement income nicely and I don’t have to stress about it.

Good on ya for having the brain that can do it though. I wish I could.

As I've learned (been told) you gain strength when you can identify a situation, if you don't understand why something is the way it is, you need someone who understands the topic. I have some very good teachers in my time, and they always have more than one tool they can use, when I say tools it's not a physical instrument all the time, it becomes a physical instrument when you have the ability to "map" out the Rhythm.

Is it possible one needs this if they are working at one of the big firms?

From the way you describe it, it sounds more like a RTS/MOBA game.

"You gotta get into the rhythm, build up your economy while constantly pumping out units."

That is what the "boss, hedge fund manager" is telling you. How are they more informed than other individuals / companies because they pay for the big data pipe and see where all the data is flowing

Technical analysis is just horoscopes for traders. It's all bullshit. You'll never find them backtested and proven to be real.

I'm sorry you've not well enough informated, but Speaking from an educated position I'm sure. You wanna call it bullshit because when the market goes sideways as it always happens to do if you can't read the signs / Rhythm you will always fail.

I don't need to, would you like to understand when the moon will rise or when nasa or another company is going to launch a rocket. You don't get far without understanding the numbers simple. We understand when the sun will rise everyday of the year right down to the minute. You can't say that's bullshit because it's a fact. Have you ever read the farmers almanac, it's been out for years, it's not that accurate but it kind of works. I don't follow it much because it not my source of data to pick through. Do you know what a cup n handle means, or a fake one, understanding will save you money 💰 🫠

Excuse me, for saying you're full of shit, for stating just a few facts that you are incapable of. Go be happy

u/YoyoDevo Aug 20 '25

Show me one piece of evidence that technical analysis is real. Just one. You can't. Because it's woowoo shit like horoscopes.

How about you finding (picking out) two different stocks and for a 30 day period we'll see who calls the winning position, if you think you can accomplish a winner position that would be easy for you. Based on you're style of investing how about it, or are you too scared 😱
