Head explodes

30 March, 2009 (16:43) | Journal | By: Colin McGinley

I’ve spent the majority of the past two weeks trying to kick back and take a break from trading. I’ve often identified the need to do this in the past but seldom deem it necessary at any given moment, which obviously leads to never actually taking that much needed break.

I didn’t make a clean getaway and ended up spending a decent amount of time poking around at different ideas and methods. The main break came from actively taking and managing trades.

I’m sure I’ll cover the majority of what I looked at in up-coming posts but I just have to share a chart that I came across late last week that almost made my head explode when I first saw it.

Hehe nice colors in that chart. Imagine staring at that few hours. I was using red and green candles before, but last few months that is also too much for me. Still I’m stubborn about having b.bands on chart, without them it looks like there is no frame for price to hold it so it could fall off the screen any minute :) .

Wow. Truly awful HMI. Why can’t these people display information more like a video game? :-)

One wonders why they stop at 2D graphs. Why not 3D? With ray-tracing. And special effects. Starring Angelina Jolie.

Thanks, Colin.
I haven’t visited your site for a while, but the these charts made the revisit well worthwhile. They are ridiculously hilarious and made my day.
It is indeed incredible to think that anybody would take these sort of charts seriously, but obviously some people do !

These charts should be a compulsory study requirement in “How to Drive Yourself Crazy Trading Forex 101″
