:-) :-) :-) I love it when a couple of guys try to split a hair. From what
I have read both of you are in more of an agreement than not. Sooner of
later everybody has to take the plunge based on something or they aren't
trading. Being "right" is nice for the ego. However being inflexible in
trading can be your un-making. But you guys know that. What you are
struggling with is believing your eyes. After you get fooled a few hundred
times you get to where you don't believe your eyes. Then when the
understanding and analysis finally sinks in you find that you can believe
your eyes again. It's a physiological battle. 

I at this point in my trading think that there is always a set up and a tip
off for every market action and you don't need news to find them, the
market action will tell you if you can read it. But if you think it was
tough to learn how to read a language it's tougher to learn to read market
action. Good trading and keep up the entertainment.
