Catchphrase

Years ago, maybe it's still going, there was a goofy TV games show in the U.K. called Catchphrase. The game involved the contestants watching a cartoon drawing to be revealed bit by bit and them having a contest as to who could say the well known phrase that the cartoon depicted. The compere (do they still call them that) kept urging the contestants to "Say what you see!"


Trading becomes exactly that. Trade what you see. I've often kicked myself when I see a picture and say to myself: "Ah, that's hit resistance (support) and it should reverse here" and then I DON'T trade it. I feel pretty stupid afterwards and don't know why I didn't take the trade. Lack of focus or lack of conviction at that moment? I don't know, but that's an issue I'm working hard on now: "Trade what I see".
