The Daily Note - Top 100, Part V (81-100)

As I make my final picks for the last 20 of the top 100 songs I realize more and more how much I like music and how much I have yet to share. I could have increased my picks easily to 200 or more, but limits are like stops, and must stick to them. I am leaving many on the cutting room floor and debating about others leaving the final decision to the last. Like with trading often we see many opportunities but realistically we can only manage a few, and have to let go of those that don't fit into the day.

I share my music every day I trade and share about trading as my time allows. I thoroughly enjoy doing both that's why I have a trading room. I now know that I have many more days ahead when I can continue posting music to you. If I consider how many I may panic, like when seeing possibilities for trading. There are not only many tunes but many experiences to write about. So my journey will continue on this blog for as long as I have readers. I am looking forward to 2012 with a new optimism, blind at times and hopeful at others but without a positive outlook we will not make anything possible.

So here's hoping you'll join me in materializing the seeming impossible. Better put in Latin: "a posse ad esse " or "from being able to being" or " from being possible to being actual"

The phrase has been posted on my site for 2-3 months now and I've noticed that since I started posting that phrase on my charts, more and more traders are tweeting and speaking about creating the possible. So it is beginning to work already. I thank you for your time for following my blog and my posts about trading, music and life and I wish you a Happy New Year.

Wishing your all a continued prosperous journey in trading, living and dancing throughout 2012.

The Daily Note - Top 100, Part IV (61-80)

Funny it doesn't get easier. The more involved with listening to the past the more it evokes memories from times gone by. I wonder if that is why we get stuck sometimes in the past and forget to look ahead. When we know and see what was we may look for it ahead, but if we do not leave the past we cannot make new memories. Well said by the saying that you cannot drive down the road while looking in the rear view mirror.

Many traders, especially when new, cannot leave what was in the last trade or better still what they missed in the past. Their focus is there and they miss what is available in the present. It's referred to as living in the now or in the moment. Each moment affords new opportunity and new memory making, but what we do often instead, is compare it to what was and if it does not match our memory we may dismiss it as unreal and feel that our hope is useless.

The truth however is that the past is no longer real and neither is our memory perfect, because we change it. But we cannot change our embedded experience therefore our fear or hope becomes real in the present.

So, since living in the past only reveals our fear or hope of the future, which is also unreal, the present is the only "real".  What we do with the present is opportunity missed or realized either repeating or breaking through to the new. Maybe that's why I like breakout plays the best.

Below is a list of the past, present and what will be my future so enjoy!

Happy Trading, Living and Dancing
and a Happy Joyous New Year!

the Daily Note - Top 100, Part III (40-60)

It's hard to imagine a world without song. I know that when all is said and done, we relate everything to some sort of music. We wake up to bird song, and go to bed to a lullaby. When we rejoice, we break out in song, when we're sad we also find a song for the memory.

I do not know of a culture where song, rhythm or dance did not play a part. We told tales in song, even news was delivered from town to town in a rhythmic ballad. So imagine a world cut off from it. I do not think we would thrive at all. I think we would shrivel within and without. So why listen to endless talk on TV, radio. Why not blast some music instead. I guarantee your outlook will change for the better.

I think that deep within ourselves we connect to the cosmos through the energy music produces, and the Universe resonates with all the music we play and sing. So as you listen the the next list try to imagine what it would be like if we could not break out in a tune. Would the world stop spinning? Somehow, I think, yes. Otherwise why would we seek it, remember it, sing along with it and cherish it? So open you ears, let the music in and let the emotion express through your own voice and dance.

Happy Trading, Living and Dancing
Anni
