Author's Note:

Learning to trade is a %er *ersonal thing. The ?ourne can 7e e<tremel frustrating= is almost al6as alonel ?ourne= 7ut is al6as 6orth it.

(ule num7er 1 in learning to trade ;ore< is that ou can get e%erthing ou need for free if ou are6illing to do some research and some 6or/ on our o6n. aing for sstems4 is stu*id. The are adime a doEen and al6as 6orth less than ou *a for them. our o6n mind and the charts is the onlthing ou need. 9en?amin fran/lin said= #m*t our *urse into our mind and our *urse 6ill ne%er 7e em*t4

That is amaEingl good ad%ice. Training is 6orth *aing for= 7ut in ;ore<= ou can get all ou coulde%er 6ant or need mostl for free. !ith that said= there is something to 7e said for *aid training in that *eo*le mostl discount the %alue of things the recei%e for free.

;or the most *art , ha%e found trading to 7e an arena filled 6ith tons and tons of 6anna7e gurus=sheister *romoters= amaEingl 6orthless and com*le< strategies and sstems and most im*ortantl=selfFfulfilling *ro*hecies.4 ;or e<am*le= ;i7onacci lines= #lliot !a%es= Andre6s itchfor/s= Mo%ingA%erages= $tochastics and $u**ort@ (esistance le%els all 6or/ reall 6ell 7ecause so %er= %er man

(ound Num7ers4 also 6or/ %er 6ell for the same reasons. eo*le tend to round4 the num7ers intheir lifes. There is nothing magical in an of this= ?ust *lain old human *scholog at 6or/. ;ear/ee*s *eo*le tra**ed and ma/es certain le%els stronger than others. Greed does much the same ?ust ina different 6a.

,f ou 6atch *rice action around Andre6's *itchfor/s= ou 6ill see the e<act same sort of mo%ement asou do around longer term Mo%ing A%erages. Nature lo%es a 7alance and *eo*le instincti%elunderstand that.

!hat goes u* must come do6n= e%erone /no6s that ,nertia /ee*s mo%ing o7?ects in motion andresists o7?ects at rest from mo%ement. #%erone /no6s that too

Life is filled 6ith ccles= 6hich scientists no6 call circadian rhthm.4 Night and da= rise and fall ofthe tides= slee* and 6a/ing= e<citement and de*ression. #%erone /no6s this too

There is an old countr 6estern song that sas= "ne ste* for6ard and t6o ste*s 7ac/= no one gets %erfar li/e that.4 9-T= that is not true.

,n a dance there are t6o *artners. "ne leads= one follo6s. ;or the most *art the male4 leads and thefemale4 follo6s. $he is tra%eling along in the dance ?ust as fast as he is= onl she is doing it 7ac/6ards $he is also ta/ing all of her cues4 from him. !ithout 7oth *artners there 6ould 7e nodance.

,n trading= the mar/et is AL!A$ the male4 and traders are ALL female4 ta/ing their cues fromhim4 AND= the must do it in res*onse ra*idl and 7ac/6ards.

,f one o%er analEes a dance techniue the mess it u*= the flo64 of the dance suffers and sometimesthe e%en get hurt. ,f the don't understand the cues the same thing ha**ens= onl often it's 6orse .Trading is no different. $o= learn to dance. Learn to ta/e cues from the mar/et and ?ust ha%e fun

Credit where Credit is Due!

This strateg is a com7ination of t6o main strategies that , greatl admire.

A Word About Idiots and Neanderthals

This strateg 6as originall *osted to ;ore<;actor 6ith the intent of it 7eing a for free4 trading

strateg. Nothing 6as e%er as/ed for in return and no offers 6ere e%er made in regards to its use=training to use it= and the Author N#I#( #I#( trades AN managed accounts. There is no need to.

$till= for some reason a fe6 decided that the Author's 6riting stle4 6as similar to some idiot 6hosu**osedl defrauded some on that forum 7 trading managed accounts. Though , am not familiar6ith the stor= let me sa this. AN"N# 6ho #I#( gi%es their hard earned cash to a stranger themeet on an ,nternet forum for trading= is as much of an idiot as the *erson doing the trading is. 9"T+of them are reall stu*id.

!ith that said= the Neanderthals on ;ore<;actor= 6ithout an e%idence of an /ind= and the lame 7rained site administrator 6ho admitted in his *ost 7anning the Author that he had N" hard e%idence ofAN /ind= still destroed the teaching of a %er solid and free strateg to man 6ho reall needed that

free teaching.The strateg is still there in the (eccle 9in4 if ou 6ant more information on this 7asic set of rules atthe follo6ing lin/ and a trader using the screen name of Jostas1 has ta/en it u*on himself to continuethe original 6or/= 6ith this Author's a**ro%al.

This manual's *ur*ose is to clean u* and sim*lif a 7it some of the rules and the 7asics of The Dancefore< trading strateg.

The ecrets o& Trading

#%erone 6ants to /no6 the secrets of trading. The are *rett sim*le reall and the true secrets ha%ea7solutel N"T+,NG to do 6ith a *articular strateg. The A(# a7out "- *ersonall and ho6"- o*erate in life. That is the main reason no one 6ants to 7elie%e them and 6h the remainsecret.4 These secrets are hidden in *lain sight for all to see and learn freel. ,t is other *eo*le 6ho

6ant to ma/e mone tring to sell ou some great sstem or strateg that su**osedl the alone ha%e 7een a7le to figure out that cause all the confusion in trading. $u**osedl their sstem4 allo6s themto unloc/ the secrets4 of trading consistentl and *rofita7l.

$o= in this first *art of the manual= ,'m going to list the most *rofita7le secrets there are an6here oftrading successfull. The secrets are as follo6s.

ecret (: tic) to ONE strateg$"

;ind a strateg that ma/es sense to ou and stic/ to it and it alone li/e a faithful 6ife and master it.This is *ro7a7l the single greatest secret in all of trading. Master "N# strateg. There are nosstems4 onl strategies that 6or/ if ou master them. ,f ou ?um* around from one to another ou6ill ne%er master anthing and 7e fore%er loc/ed in the suc/er's dream of the sstem4 or the +ol

Grail4 of trading. The truth is= all strategies 6or/ for the ones using them if the 6ill learn to masterthem.

The Dance4 is ?ust another strateg. ,t is not a secret sstem= it is not a sstem at all reall= 7ut , *ersonall 7elie%e it is much sim*ler to learn and master and that it can= if used *ro*erl= 6or/ in allmar/ets and on all securities= not ?ust ;"(#B.

ecret *: +O, are the main secret in trading"

ou are the greatest secret in trading. ou ha%e 7een gifted 6ith the fastest com*uter /no6n to man atour 7irth and ou ha%e the a7ilit to learn= ada*t and modif e%erthing ou see and come into contact6ith. The 6a ou see4 things is %er different than the 6a other's see4 things. That is ho6 TheDance4 came to 7e. , sa64 something in the inter*la of some mo%ing a%erages that , had ne%er reada7out= 7ut it made sense to me immediatel and , 7egan to e<*lore it and *ractice 6hat , sa6.4 ,t6or/s and it 6or/s for anone and e%erone 6ho uses it and the sim*ler ou /ee* it= the more *o6erfulit is. ,f ou can master ou4 and our emotions a7out trading tal/ed a7out in another of the secrets=ou !,LL 7ecome successful. And that leads us to secret O3.

ecret -: im.ler is better"

$im*ler is al6as 7etter. The more com*le< a strateg is= the harder to learn it 6ill 7e and the easier it6ill 7e to ma/e mista/es that 6ill sha/e our confidence= slo6 ou do6n and cost ou= *ossi7l= earsin mastering trading. +a%ing more lines on a chart has no more %alue than ha%ing one. ersonall ,find three o*timal to gi%e me all the information , could *ossi7l need to trade 6ith in a %isual fashion.All indicators are ?ust more lines dis*laed differentl that reFhash the same 7asic information found in

mo%ing a%erages. Anone 6ho sas differentl *ro7a7l has a sstem4 to sell ou.

ecret /: Acce.t the #numbers game% iew o& it"

Mastering trading is not hard. ,t's ?ust an issue of acce*ting the num7ers game4 of it all. All thingsha%e a *ro7a7ilit4 ratio or a num7ers game4 that creates the success of the effort. !hether it'ss*orts= industr= sales or trading= there is a num7ers game4 7ehind it all. The more ou can find anedge4 something ou can e<*loit= the faster ou 6ill 7ecome 6ill 7ecome consistent at our effort andthat consistenc leads to success.

our o6n emotions are the onl real enem4 in all of trading. 9ro/ers 6ho mani*ulate *rice feedscannot defeat ou. Mar/et ma/ers 6ho charge large s*reads cannot defeat ou. The ne6s cannotdefeat ou. Changing mar/ets cannot defeat ou.

ecret 6: There are no ma)eu. trades"

Trade each trade and each session as if it 6ere the onl one. esterda is gone and does not deser%e to 7e remem7ered in trading.
