alright... i had this thought in my mind for a while..

before i continue, let me explain my theory about 'market', what is market? and why everyone is after the market, be it for the monetary value, passion, pride or whatever it is.

based on what i've learn all these while, if im not mistaken market is the place to ration limited amount of something for public and let the highest bidder own that 'thing', i assume this is what capitalism economy is.

now i believe everyone here as a trader/investor, the main reason everyone gets into the market is by making money. therefore this question suddenly pops up in my mind, whose money? where does the profit come from? i believe many of you here would have an answer, which is money comes from the opposite trader. if this was true.. is it fair for me to say market is the place to find a balance between buyer and seller?

if this is true, can we come to a conclusion that market is also the place to destroy any imbalance therefore there is no such thing as bullish or bearish?

following from the previous explanation, assume market was what i defined, then next logical conclusion is utmost one.

for example, if someone revealed their strategy here, a signal, or whatever method that is used to entry the market. wouldnt it will be a losing one? because based on the above logic..

no matter how good the system is, when during entry.. if the amount of buyer exceed the seller amount, market cannot goes up because theres nobody gonna pay profit for those buyer. same as the reversed situation, if signal/system say sell, and majority would sell & exceed the number of buyer.. so who is gonna pay profit for seller?

hope anyone of you here able to clear my thought.. thanks
