Recommended Posts

Hi All,

raffa,

 

I have used NeuroProgramer for years ( but am increasingly using MindWorkStation with WildDivine HRV feedback - see below) Great products, good price points. I believe there are already a couple threads up on TL about this – search and maybe the search functions will function :)

 

I should note that I personally do not use the app to “entrain”. To me, we’re already entrained enough. All my protocols have the expressed intent of training facile, choiceful shifts in BW frequency ie adaptability… (For similar work goog Shakti, but my stuff is differentiated from Persinger’s – with far less ‘profound’ scopes, more selective (ie less random) sequencing than his, and actually more inclusion of the negative / stressful / effortful elements… )

 

…and fwiw - To me, all the subliminal / suggestion / self-hynosis / affirmation stuff is total crap.... built on some really invalid assumptions about the pervasiveness of the whole brains' use of language... etc

 

Just like staying in physical shape, I typically do sessions 3 times a week – whether I need them or not.

(Speaking of staying in shape… imo most ppl’s trading would be enhanced more by using that same time getting and staying in just right physical shape than by going under the headphones)

 

Bottom line = I basically see consensus application of the technology as a temporary but possibly useful crutch. If you are going with the consensus uses of this technology, spots like

Traders using NP - Transparent Community Forum

may help.

In essence the key is knowing what you need and WHEN you need it… then developing and using protocols (/ crutches) that help. Actually doing the work towards high self awareness of your patterns and WHEN they happen is imo far, far more important than ‘running external agents’ into your head…

 

Transparent may still have free trials and money back guarantees so give it a trial. You'll quickly know whether you have the 'energy' to get into the program(s) and leverage them... it's not for everybody...

Thanks for your assistance.

 

I'm basically trying to construct protocols to match the different aspects of my trading strategy so i can trade confidently and with clarity. I was planning to program my subconscious with Alpha and Theta to become accustomed to my system's structure and profit capabilities. Its like i don't believe that my system is profitable even though it shows consistent profit on back-tests as well as live trading, but once i start to get profitable i loose confidence :crap: (maybe its a self-image issue) Once those programs are embedded i was looking for a session that puts you in that "trader zone" as a pre-market warm up or a lunch break session. Do you know of any particular sessions which have put you in a " winning zone" like mental state?

What you just described seems to be a perfect fit for the consensus paradigm and “standard practices” for applying this technology. To rephrase / restate what I was getting at in first post – I can offer favorable reviews of the NP product itself but I don’t embrace the current paradigm nor the standard practices for this technology, so I can only refer you to the libraries on Transparent user (and other BWE) sites for downloadable templates to use as it or to build on. All the best at dialing something in and reaching your goals.

Stroop effect shown nullified by hypnotic linguistic suggestions. Columbia News ::: Hypnosis Gaining Ground in Medicine

 

Some non-conscious parts of the brain can and do use language to communicate with the pre-frontal cortex as was seen by Stetter and Kupper in their meta study of Autogenic Training studies. SpringerLink - Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback, Volume 27, Number 1

 

Hypnotic suggestion works in some individuals who willfully want it to work. It does not work in people who willfully resist relaxing and focusing attention.

 

NP is a good product. BWE benefits most who use it even if the benefit can be attributed to placebo effects. (BTW, Placebo effects are strong evidence that non conscious parts of the brain do process verbal linguistic information.) While statistical studies of outcome anecdotal modalities do not meet Popper's falsification criteria, the fact still remains that each person is responsible to their own selves to earn their self esteem and respect. If BWE helps, then good for them.

Thanks for the feedback. My :) reactions…

 

re “Stroop effect shown nullified by hypnotic linguistic suggestions”

??

More accurate might be “Stroop effect shown nullified by ‘presence’ and interaction.”

 

re “Some non-conscious parts of the brain can and do use language”

That “Some” is still extremely miniscule in my view.

 

re “Placebo effects are strong evidence that non conscious parts of the brain do process verbal linguistic information” that’s a stretch… a big stretch…

 

re “willfully want it to work” Willfully wanting it to work is a factor but not major factor… transitions to the issue of ‘highly hypnotizable individuals’ / the ‘highly suggestible’ …which unfortunately transitions to this pivotal issue – the ‘highly suggestible’ are even less likely to retain changes produced from what I called all this ‘verbal crap’ than are the ‘lowly suggestible’. Specific to NP, to me this means, bignore the “subliminal / suggestion / self-hynosis / affirmation” features of the product… even if you were lucky enough to find the right agent voices for yourself, ultimately the returns from the additional ‘crap’ would still be relatively low

 

…here we go again… just because neuroscience is all new and au currant doesn’t make it ‘right’… I personally have some serious questions about basic assumptions of the whole field… and have accepted that I may not live long enough to see the fad fade… :)

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
