(Before I begin, let me tell you that I am not a native english speaker, so if some of my writing is hard to understand, or seems to imply the wrong thing, it is most likely because of my bad grammar and nothing else. So here goes..)
May I interject and try to explain why this 'technique' does not seems to work to some people?
Too Much Prejudice/Negativity..
You are focusing on the teacher instead of the teaching. What are you guys so paranoid of??.. why is he being treated 'guilty until proven innocent'?? With that kind of attitude you wont be going anywhere, you wont be learning anything.......... Someone even suspects TRO is posting under a few different IDs so that he can appear to have followers! With that level of prejudice, no wonder some of you are not learning anything.
TRO is trying to teach "Never Lose Again: 101"..., the basis, the introductory class, when you were on the primary school you were taught to recognize the alphabet before you were taught how to read. You cannot possibly read unless you recognize the alphabet. This is what is going on here, some student are already far ahead in the class and is already 'reading'!.. while others are still struggling to recognize the alphabet. That is why some people 'seems' to be taught differently than others, and rightly so!. BUT! what surprised me is some of the student tried to pick a fight with the teacher instead of focusing on the lesson at hand, I can mention several names here but I wont, you should know who you are.
When you first learned math, it is most likely you were taught addition and subtraction first, multiplication and division later. But when some student were taught 4 divided by 2 equals 2, some of you chose to pick a fight and said "But earlier you said.. 1 plus 1 is 2, why now you change tune and says 4 divided by 2 is 2? you must be a moron!.. you must be a scammer!".
Your Cup Is Full
Try reading this,
Zen Stories to Tell Your Neighbors, it may help most of you the seasoned/experienced traders. Beginners normally dont have problem understanding TRO because they dont have to remove anything from their cup before they can fill it with whatever TRO is teaching.
This method is so simple, and that is the problem. Some of you equates 'simple' to 'easy'. It may be simple but that does not mean you do not need to practise. Riding a bike is 'simple', what is so hard about riding a bike? Sit on top of it, cycle the pedals, but did you annouced bike sellers are scammers and swindling people money just because you fall and got bruises all over your body? Hell no!.. you tried it again, and again, and again, until it becomes 'easy' and second nature to you.
It all boils down to this, how honest you want to learn it. If you looking at finding fault, you can pick 1001 wrong things with the bike.
Jumping The Gun
Coding an EA before you are fully proficient with the method? That is like programming a robot to drive a car before you got your own driving license! Talk about ego.
How does one drive a car?, simple.. step on the accelerator to move faster, step on the brake to slow down or stop, step on the clutch to change gears, turn the steering wheel right/left according to the direction you want to go, stop on red. Simple!.. but will you be able to drive by reading that?.. no way!..
You got to feel how the candle is moving, how the candle contract or expand, there is a HUGE difference between a candle that hesitantly/slowly move over a line compared to the one that move steadily and full of momentum. You just got to FEEL it!, now unless you can code your EA to see that, there is little chance your EAs going to work.
Now before someone crying foul and says TRO never stated this, it was suppose to be simple etc, I am improvising the rules etc, please re-read my analogy on learning how to read and the analogy on math again.
Again, it all boils down to this, how honest you want to learn it. If you looking at finding fault, fault you will find (ok, I am a big fan of Yoda).
p/s: Actually, my intuition says I am wasting my time writing this, some of you are beyond help. But I will give you guys the benefit of the doubt this one time. I am not as strong as TRO, that guy could spend hours after hours of his precious time and energy helping strangers, not me!.. if I get any negative response from now on.. I will be more than likely to ignore it, why bother.
