	HAHAH! And the Goobers, too. Don't forget the Goobers!

yeah really!

Hey man awesome video Chris. Thanks a million for the info!

Yeah just to reiterate, that really helped a lot. For some reason, my brain keeps locking up when I think of this whole Auction Market Theory- probably due to "bad habits" of standard technical analysis...but this video really helped put it into perspective a whole lot better than simply reading about it. By the way, you seem to have a talent for the teaching aspect, if I do say so myself.

Funny you should mention that I used to teach in the Nashville Metro School System a few years back. Though it was just K-4 Music and Art. Getting paid to play with clay and construction paper was the 2nd coolest job I've ever had...well, next to being in the studio and trading I guess it's 3rd.

Interesting comment there Reaver. I must say one of the hardest things I encountered in trading was unlearning what I had learned. All the textbook stuff I learned was having a negative impact on my trading. I had to come to a point and say... Forget all this crap! I AM going to study the market and come up with my own ideas. The auction theory definitely helped me alot with futures. But I do not follow MP by the book. As a matter of fact, the only MP I use is just the concept itself. Once I understand the concept, I just focus on price action with volume and nothing else.

Yeah I hear you there man. Helping/teaching kids really makes the world seem like a better place when you do it. I agree completely.

Also, funny you mention the Nashville thing. I am originally from Corinth, MS, which is only a couple hours away from there (very close to Jackson, TN). One of my best friends' brothers was on the city council for Springfield, TN (If I am not mistaken, its been a few years). Small world Chris.

James, I agree with you. It is definitely crazy how hard it is to get past the classic TA habits when you're trying to learn something else. All the "truisms" and "rules" and whatnot of TA I repeated over and over really got ingrained...and it starts messing with my head when I am trying to wrap my brain around AMT, etc.

I am doing pretty good on the 2 day to 2-3 weeks scale on trading with TA...but I feel like I am not being challenged. I know that may sound stupid to want to move from something that seems to work alright...but really I feel like I will go crazy if I don't figure it all out for myself, like I won 't appreciate it as much or something over the years. So I think I am pretty much at the stage you mentioned yourself being at a while back. That's one thing I really enjoy about the forums is the atmoshpere is very conducive to learning and sharing ideas. I know it always ALWAYS boils down to each person figuring out what works for them, and obtaining an understanding that only they can have, but it is great to have fellow traders here to throw in ideas and enlighten here and there. It really shortens the learning curve, and opens my mind to things I may not have thought about on my own.
