Lucian criticizes most historians for neither seeing what’s worth looking at nor, even if they did, failing to properly express it
… and despite priding themselves on how many books they have and their titles
He notes what’s *most* needed to make a good historian as follows
If you’re not coming from a place of abundance already the answer to most your problems is almost always MORE cold outreach
Hiring, sales, dating, funding etc you name it… you have to put yourself out there to the point of never being dependent on any single opportunity
You level up when you realize that all of the indicators are laggy, 1-2m charts are more noise than signal, and that blocks, gaps and arrays are complex concepts made to sell you on the idea that trading is supposed to be complicated, so you’d better get a mentor.
You level up when you realize that all it comes down to - is probability of up > down?
Simple Example: if 30m open is +, is there an edge to buying and holding to close? How much edge? This specific example might not have edge but it’s a good example of simple thinking.
Simple >> complex every day and twice on the days you were told not to trade.
Just start asking basic questions and go from there.
