You may or may not remember me; I participated briefly in your �The Joy of Candlestick Trading � a Learning Experience� thread. I feel off the wagon as I got involved in more important things pertaining to work. I have since come back and am hoping to learn from you. I have reviewed the original thread, both of the Most Important notes regarding candlestick trading and have read through this thread. It has been a blessing to be able to learn through your diligent teaching. Thank you for all that you have done and all that you will be doing. I plan on sending you a personal message as soon as I can as I have not posted enough to get that privilege yet … Do you know what I would have that privilege?
One of the things I like about this thread and this method is that more than anything else it is an learning experience. Here we are learning about candlesticks, Bollinger bands, starc bands, entries and exits. Everything we are learning can be transferred over, in one degree to another, to other markets. Tymen you yourself (from my understanding) traded candlesticks in a similar way in the Share Market.
This is more than a system for forex it is a learning experience that we can adapt and use in the event that forex does end.
Tymen I really do appreciate everything you have done and continue to do.
I had to go 3 pages back. I can’t believe you let that happen.
Are you OK?
When are you going to post again ?
Is the PDF progressing?
Take care and hope you post soon again.
So I have light course load this semester in college and I’ve decided to study Forex trading intensively. I’m actually treating your Joy of Candlestick Trading Series as a textbook, considering it has so much valuable information.
I started reading Part 1 yesterday and I’m now on Page 13; I’ve been learning about vectors and predicting price action based on averaging the MACD and Bollinger Bands. While this information is useful, I’m afraid that when I get to Page 150, you will have come up with a superior method or have some contradicting information. Lets be honest, no ones candlestick strategy spans 300 pages.
My question is, do you recommend that I go through page by page, or do you feel my time would be better spent focused on certain sections of both parts. Part 1 dates back to early 2008, wouldn’t surprise me if you stopped using certain methods or modified strategies or anything along these lines. What do you recommend I do? Any help appreciated.
Dear Tymen,
Its Muthu from Chennai, India. I just wanted to let you know being a newbie and scrolling hundreds of pages in the internet i just cannot believe that i stumbled up on your first thread few weeks back and i just finished reading them all. First of all, its a rare thing to find there is some one in this world who is so selfless in this dog eat dog world to help traders and newbies worldwide to get confidence and get going. You are like a father figure to me who holds his babies hands and make them walk. May God bless you and your family with his choicest blessings for your tireless and selfless act. I must tell you I am going to recommend this thread to all my friends who are also struggling how to get going. My greetings to all others who were so helpful to post helpful links and guides.
Greetings from the Land of Taj Mahal

But I do more than just forex trading, I also help people who are down and out.
I have seen crisis after crisis this week with people being involved in terrible struggles of life, such as women without their children, deaths in families, swine flu and helping mental health patients. :eek: :eek: :eek:
This week has been especially draining and I needed a rest.
So all my forex work + trading ceased temporarilly.
I have read your approach to price action with great interest. I am always open to new ideas to trading. I am a firm believer in constant learning and that applies to all aspects of my life.
This is the first time I have come across an explanation in regards to involved emotions in price action made visible through candlestick patterns.
