Trade Like a Farmer

[PipCounterz]

Sees it’s real seemple. When ya goes to da fields and ya see da corn done growed high, ya pick it. So dat’s what ya do here to. See dat urodallar got reals high, so I picked it. And I keeps on pickin’ till it gets real low cause dat’s when it’s time to plant more corn and a wait fer it to grows so you cans pick it agin.

hehehehehe thanks for bringing a smile to my face!

Hey Everybody:

I’m a gonna show you all traders how to trade like a farmer. It ain’t gonna be fancy cause I ain’t got a whole lot of book learning but I got me some horse sense.

I’ll take it slow cause I don’t do nothin’ fast. So the first thing you gotta learn is it takes time for things to grow. Don’t matter if it is crops, chickens or cattle, IT TAKES TIME TO GROW. So that means you gotta stop looking at the clock so much. Use a daily chart.

Now I know you all are wondering what’s a daily chart doing in a day trading thread, well just hold your horses cause I am fixin’ to tell ya. Down on the farm, we get up early to start chores. So you be needing a daily chart to see what the early birds have been doing. While you were sleeping, all them traders on the other side of the world have been busy trading like crazy. You need to see what the heck they have been doing.

See how them candles sticks look like corn growing in the field? Well, it is real simple. They are either picking corn or letting it grow. When them candle sticks are black/red, they are picking corn. When them candle sticks are white/green, they are letting it grow. By the time you wake up, you can see if they are picking corn or letting it grow.

You can see how yesterday and today, they were letting it grow.

This is how to trade like a farmer.

See I told ya I told ya how it works in da beginnin.

Let me xplain it agin since sum of ya all didn’t git it da first go round. And ya all thinks I iggorent just cauz I am country.

Every dang time dey pick da corn to ground, dey plant it back so it can grows agin. Sees dem lines sticking out da bottom? Dats it growin back. Sees how dem lines stop round the same place? Dats where da ground is. Can’t yous sees it? Ya all gotz fanci names and stuff for it cause ya all went and got some book learnin. Well lets me ax ya all sumden… is ya all makin or losin money? See dats what tradin is all bout. Every time one of yous city slickers cum down to da country and think you can pull a fast one, we takes your money and you get a bum steer. Dats cuz we know what we doin and ya dont but ya think ya do cuz ya read some book.

If in ya all dont want me around dese here parts den so be it. But dont try to turn me into sum book learnin fancy pants cuz it aint gonna happen.

But sum of da old folks forgit, bless dere heart, and dey tell you da same story every dang time ya sees dem.

little john did not answer where is he from ?

Here in England , I once seen an English men try very hard to understand a scottish girl speaking -supposedly english- and he kept on asking - pardon?

I guess it s worldwide the accent thing

[littlejohn]

Now looky here… its da same as it always is… da corn grows up and it gets picked back down and dey plant it agin. Dat means da price goes up and den it comes back down. All ye do is look at da chart and sees where da ground is. Ya all call it fancy pants names like support but dont matter nun what ya call it.

[TalonD]

That’s way to vague to be of any use. Why don’t you show a specific trade… ahead of time, not after the fact.

I see three flat areas that you would call the ground. one at the upper left, one in the middle and one at lower right. So which is the ground from which the corn is going to start growing back up again? What are the farmers doing, reaping the roots? or digging a hole to China to grab their corn out from under them?
