Interesting read (translated), and a good point you're conveying. In learning how to trade, there are quite a bit of mathematical principles in studies, or indicators, which has been a consistantly intricate learning curve/battle. But fundamentally, there are reasons that I wanted to do it. There is a philosophy behind crypto currencies, one that looks at the system at a whole and sees how the creation and flow of money has been manipulated by certain powers that be - hence allowing the people to suffer under such manipulation. However, in crypto land, very smart algorithms in cryptography are used to generate these virtual currencies, which hold a better value in fiat and cannot, for the most part, be manipulated. I'm drawn to that, guided by a philosophy and along the way becoming a student of the internal mechanics and mathematics of this new, far more superior system.
I liken trading to frequencies. Like frequencies of the ocean. Harmonic patterns that can be charted that abide by market psychology. I think the moon has a lot to do with it also, strangely. Many years ago the sea farers would plot their charts and journeys by the stars, religiously leaning to the stars for guidance in astrology.
Frequencies, like that of a string on an instrument. There is resonance. Soul.
For me; I don't think anything can be studied unless there is a sound, clear, philosophy behind it.
“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” - Nikola Tesla
Nice point!
However, in my opinion philosophy is more about arguing and some arguments are better than others... Rather than thinking of philosophy as something that is a concept behind something
Haha, I'm done arguing.
