    ... this absolutely the best explanation I’ve seen on this often perceived gray area. You have the best trading related channel on UA-cam.

    I think the best edge is seeing the price move up with selling demand and moving down with buying demand. Means the market maker has an urgency it can't show as demand in the markets... the problem is its very difficult to see in these electronic hfts. The ratio is best at 5:1 win to loss per trade.

    I have always been passionate about economy. Due to my compounded knowledge I am able to stay off the sell button during recessions.

      Just be aware AAPL has *halved* several times in the last 20 years. And Nokia (the producer of the most handsets numerically speaking), went from $250 to $2.50. Before being put out of its misery & bought by Microsoft. 😳

      The Indexes keep increasing coz of Survivor Bias (Mark’s discussed this elsewhere). The top 1000 companies no longer include the companies which went bankrupt etc. & so no longer weigh the Index down. When TSLA joined the SP-500, pensions were obliged to buy it, increasing its capitalisation, whilst dropping their holdings of the Stocks leaving the Index.

    Why do you need an edge? I can't figure this one out. Whats wrong with trading 'correctly' in the sense of just scanning for stocks that meet your criteria say pullbacks and just trading with the correct technical analysis and risk v reward / stop loss and profit target? Wouldn't the probability of small losses and larger wins this work in your favour over time without a specific 'edge'?

    There is another movie about sell/buying, the great Glengarry Glen Ross (1992) with Pacino, Lemmon, and Baldwin...

    Logically, there must be more traders than edges, and then if many traders share the same it's no more an edge... they are not "better". ie exceptional. Ok. I guess also that the more short you go, the more mechanical it is. The longer, the more contrarian it is. I made 1 month complete winning every day on very short, just guessing. But small wins, so effort/reward was poor.
    I always remember Dr David Paul saying he was studying cycles for 25 years ! cycles are difficult to understand because they are arbitrary, there is no reason for them... not supply/demand, i think so.

    Trading edge will differ from trader to trader friend, what works for you will not work for others...Mark this video is the first dislike I gave to you.....because this video does not give light to anything...not the edge & nor does it give an idea to how to giet an edge....it would be helpful...if you would have backed it with a trading system for each of the points you mentioned.

      Mark gave numerous examples of edges. He also gave one of the best definitions and explanations of edge. He said what it is not. He even mentioned what to avoid.
      All of this in a 7 and a half minute video.
      It's now up to you to do your homework and develop your edge.

    • @laurenth7187
      @laurenth7187 3 роки тому +2

      @@chigozietruth Ok he said one should avoid where one is bad... well. Not easy. If you are bad on everything for example.. i mean without a coach, not easy. Adam Grimes also spoke from an Edge without never giving an example. I think an edge is in learning, i never stop learning... i never stop questioning what i'm doing;

      He's saying the right stuff, trust me as i found my edge after 3 years, Here's a tip for you regarding my edge(although i don't know it works for you or not) Only GBPJPY and GBPUSD 15 minute scalping/break and retest & understanding market structure/strictly only london session(to avoid overtrade)...The thing i found out was if you just focus on one currency,JUST ONE! in one particular session, you will understand its movement better than most who traded it and its kinda hard for you to have negative months(- ROI) as the probability of winning is extremely high on your side of the trade(because of your understanding of that particular pair),and thus my consistency is achieved.I wish somebody told me sooner so i won't waste years in forex,so here i am helping you to not be making my mistake, Good luck!!

      You find an 'edge' by backtesting and researching for yourself - imagine expecting to have this spoon fed to you. Reading your comment I understand why 80% of traders fail - lazy.
