If you want to get better at trading, play with the charts!

Recently I spend every weekend with the kids immersed in baseball ⚾

I myself played baseball from elementary school to adult,

but teaching it is the first time for me, so I’m honestly puzzled?

There are many dads who coach who have no baseball experience.

In fact, almost everyone is inexperienced.

While talking with the inexperienced, I had a thought and decided to write about it by intertwining baseball and trading.

※If you’re not interested in baseball, you can skip it?

However, I wouldn’t say there’s nothing to gain at all.

I’m writing about what’s necessary to become better, you know?

I have pitched for many years.

There have been two no-hitter games in my life ✨

Though it’s just past glory (laughs).

Putting that aside… lol

For example, when a pitcher“throws a straight fastball”you might hear.

Amateurs would think“a straight, fast ball that goes straight”is what a fastball is.

But in reality as a pitcher,“straight”has several varieties.

・Fast straight

・Slow straight

・Four-seam straight (how you grip relative to the ball’s seams)

・Two-seam straight (how you grip relative to the ball’s seams)

・Spinless straight

・A straight with many rotations but slower speed

・Gyro-rotation straight (not backspin, but a projectile-like rotation)

Although we say “straight,” we throw many different types.

Are all these throwing methods described in an introductory baseball book?

When I was in elementary school, I read such a beginner’s book.

It described the basic rules and representative breaking balls.

Of course it also described how to throw a straight, but I don’t recall ever seeing the above kinds of straight throws.

Then where did I learn them?

Fromplay.

・What would happen if I threw this way?

・What would happen if I imparted this rotation?

・Can I throw a ball that rises like in a manga?

（A elementary schooler’s imagination is endless）

・Can I apply a pistol-like rotation?

（Of course I don’t know about gyro balls?）

Even outside straight, the imagination doesn’t stop lol

・If backspin makes the ball float, topspin should make it drop, right?

・If I threw in such a way, would the ball drop?

All of itis learned from playanyway.

In that context, can you immediately think of a pitch you could actually use in a game?

If someone asks, that’s not always the case ??

But after playing for years, you gradually get a feel and it becomes your go-to pitch.

Wouldn’t you say this is similar to market conditions?

Do introductory books contain winning methods?

Are you winning by following the intro books?

Intro books talk about things like “buy on dips” or “buy when the indicator is like this …”

They describe only surface-level words.

When and how to buy? How to judge a trend’s correction?

How do you decide?

How to buy gradually?

The important points are not written.

That’s because those who can’t throw many different straight pitches write about them.

? is a commonly cited Entry method.

Buy on dips at 61.8%.

Stop loss is when you break the starting point.

But can you actually keep earning just by doing this?

When you trade, doesn’t often one move through a Protective Stop and then advance along a cycle? (like a wave pattern)

People who keep earningplace the Entry-point where an amateur would put a Protective Stop.

I also often place a limit order where the starting point breaks.

On the contrary, I hardly ever place a limit at 61.8% ?‍♂️

In textbooks? Intro books? they sometimes say to enter at 61.8%, though lol

So where is the starting point that gets broken?

If you apply Fibonacci extensions and look at it

1.13? 1.27? 1.382? 1.618?

That kind of thingwe “play with it.”.

※Fibonacci numbers are not the only reversal points.

※Of course validating properly is important.

Have you tried applying channels in various ways?

For example:

① Draw a channel with the leftmost white circle as the baseline value range. (yellow channel)

② Soon after, the same value range (the value range in the trendline sense) appeared! ? (neighboring white circle)

④ Then the rate stopped at the lower green channel! ? (green channel white circle)

⑤ It showed a pullback, so I moved the channel parallel to that point again. (pink channel)

③ Strangely enough! It halted exactly again at the pink channel lower bound! ? (pink channel white circle)

There was a time I traded using trendlines and horizontal lines.

※ I don’t use either anymore.

The N value of horizontal lines, the N value of trendlines.

（“N value of a trendline”: I’m not sure this is the correct term, but it means the upper to lower bound of a channel）

This is how I played around with various lines on charts?

It’s fine to do this while watching TV or listening to music.

I take verification seriously, but treat this as play!

・Move them parallel.

・Adjust lines so they fit perfectly.

Do this thousands or tens of thousands of times, just drawing.

That’s what learning from play is about.

I used to play while watching TV, during Friday Road Show, while eating, etc. lol

Anyway, since I really wanted to make money in the market, I decided not to do anything else, and I even deleted time-wasting gaming apps that I used to kill time.

Just drawing lines makes you better, and you can use them with flexibility.

・Are trendlines not effective?

・You broke the trendline but it came back?

・You broke the starting point and got stopped out, then it moved?

・You broke a high and entered but it returned?

So what kind of line would have made profits?

What kind of line would have hit perfectly?

Serious review is essential, but playing with past charts is also necessary.

Practicing exactly what you were taught in clubs and repeating what you learned is important, butplaying with friends in a park is also important.is important too.

People who love charts are the ones who get better!

That’s what this is about.

If you think it’s nonsense, you’re actually doing it without realizing it.

You’re testing it.

That’s why you know it.

You experience it and understand it.

Shooting in soccer ⚽ to hit the goalpost bar.

In baseball ⚾ to throw or swing with odd rotations.

These are not performed in actual games.

But they’re things you can do only with technique.

Developing technique through play makes it possible.

On charts, besides serious analysis and validation, please try various things even as play?

Your repertoire will grow, and your perspective will change!

That’s all for now.
Thank you for reading to the end. m(_ _"m)
