After 2 days of work I have finally finished writing down an heavily illustrated resource that I believe would be very interesting for those who love to study the markets.

There you'll see various things, from exchanges features to spread, from supply and demand to a description of what candle bars are, what EvE in game chart bars are and their basic properties and much more.

There's even a section about "coin toss trading", recently "debated" in a now locked thread, including an example.

I hope you'll like it.


Linkage.

Nice read!

On page 3 picture ferrofluid orders there is a minor mistake, i think it should say highest buy order, not highest sell order at the arrow pointing to the highest buyorder

Thanks VV. Finally learned about those candle graphs :)

I note your explanation of how random/coin toss trading leads to loss (i.e. the market fees cause the loss, not the random nature of the trade).

Love the 2nd last graph (page 5, fear and greed). Funny, as it is true! I've been there at all those highs and lows, unfortunately more frequently as a small player :)

Nice read! Really enjoyed it, and even picked up on a couple of things I didn't think about in that way before.

Could you make a more in depth post on the fear and greed aspects?

I can't deny it, reading stuff by VV makes my eyes glaze over, but I do try to read it.

If (as a noobie) you're looking for a somewhat simple concept to adopt / try from VV's stuff its worth taking a look at the stuff around using the BRN (Big Round Number) concept. Its probably the easiest to digest initially.

I may well of misunderstood what it was all about but prior to reading about this concept I used something similar and VV's guff helped to confirm I was at least on the right track.

So, try to get past the mind boggling jargon and you'll find some gems in what he talks about.

Great job VV.

Fly safe. o7

VV, finally got round to reading it in full.
Thanks for sharing such information with us, it's all I can say!

I'm now in the process of looking at the other stuff listed on your site, and I believe I'm in forsomething of a learning experience.

laffo after furiously spamming the "report" button in that thread and typing in "make the bad man stop disproving my world view entirely" and begging for isd to make me stop, you move this offsite so you can prevent anyone from seeing it debunked by just linking them directly to the page

Actually it was not me spamming anything, as I had prepared a long post with a number of links I searched to show you were wrong and that made it impossible to post it.



Anyway I am glad my posting makes you so furious, it means my salt is pouring on your wound just fine.

weasil lighten up

he made 4b from 100b using this method, thats huge for market discussions.

The example you used, Megacyte, is also a perfect example for why my compatriots look down upon technical analysis so much. To clue you in, those pictured Megacyte spikes were the cabal and to some degree regular goons. The vast majority of which got blown up in Forex at 3300 value as the CCP estimated price adjusted immediately to manipulated value. So this is a perfect example of doing technical analysis on behavior that is beyond the ability for the chart to explain, or even represent properly. You will see the same thing in Zydrine and Nocxium in that same time period.

So the point being, as I have stated before, do not read markets. Make markets. This is EVE, sticking to methods used in the real world when you have such rich tools available to you to play dirty is just shameful.

so does anyone who spends countless hours buying things from buy orders and selling them on sell orders

his technical analysis boils down to station-trading, just with more effort

in other words it's worthless and he's getting the average return from the market he is in
