Hi Gramski,

I know that there is also a thing as "the exception confirms the rule"....
But each element in trading over a longer period of time will always have the tendency to lean more to the rule then to the exception....

friendly regards..iGoR

Thankyou for your reply, however...

I think you mean an 'exception disproves a null hypothesis thereby accepting the alternative hypothesis' rather than this 'exception confirms the rule' nonsense. Regardless of this muddled logic, I agree that yes, you shouldn't focus on exceptions in trading.
This has nothing to do with me not agreeing 100% with your explanation. Anyway, It doesn't matter....it's not important.

One more thing....... Why don't you use Price bars+Heiken Ashi?
The way your HA Bar Trend plots history (and current) is misleading on it's own...just my opinion.

Regards,
Gramski.

Actually Gramski this time Igor was correct...

Here's a reference for you...

exception that proves the rule

Lux, thanks...and the idea in itself makes sense. But, It's still screwball logic to try to relate it to trading.

Shinigami,
I am not trying to start a discussion or an argument. I gave my honest opinion in my prevous posts, and I responded to a PM from Igor, suggesting exactly the same thing that you suggested in your post here.

At some point you say on something that I explain : ...."I respect your reply. Although I don't agree 100% with your explanation,".....


My aswer to it " the exception confirms the rule" refers to trading in this way that whatever I try to explain there is always a possibility to say I don't agree 100% ( aspecialy about trading)

Then the exception confirms the rule.
You can debat over the fact that one can not park his car on a particular place on a sunday...and so long and so hard that one seems to forget that the other 6 days of the week, one can park a car there without any problem.

One can debat over exceptions in trading in such a way that one seems to forget that in trading over a longer period of time, the rule will come much more in to play then the exception ...even in such a way that the exception is not worth to debat...

regards..iGoR

what about monday results?

Igor,

I know that...but you've miscontrued my comment. Let me explain it another way....

When I said...."I respect your reply. Although I don't agree 100% with your explanation,"...this means I understand and agree with the content of your post but I don't feel that the explanation is adequate. This does not mean that I disagree with the content but rather the way you've answered. There is a difference. In other words, I'm not debating exceptions. It's the old false assumption thing again....

Regardless of this I did have a relevent question that you have not answered:-

Why don't you use Price bars+Heiken Ashi?
The way your HA Bar Trend plots history (and current) is misleading on it's own...just my opinion.

Gramski.

If it was me, I wouldn't trade this monday - holiday for US session. Choppy market as a result.
Igor, I've sent you a letter and I'm waiting for your reply regarding payment. I'm still trying to join the group...
