October
3, 2010 Commentary (monthly edition)-
I'll start
out today's commentary with a few quotes, one from George Harrison (of Beatles
fame), and one which is a common proverb. First, from George, the title of his
1970 triple album: 'All things must pass'. And now the proverb: 'All good
things must come to an end'. It is with a heavy heart that I announce I think
last month's commentary will be my last one. At this point I am not going to go
into my reasons behind this, but I think I may do a write-up at some point,
filled with deep philosophical ramblings, on my decision. I know this will be a
great disappointment to many, and early indications from the few I have given
advanced notice to have been filled with sorrow.
I will explain when I decide to
write up my reasoning, but for now let me say that the basis for this decision
goes back to a lesson I learned in my childhood. It is an unpleasant, but
real-world lesson. I learned that the nature of the world is such that the few,
or the one, can and frequently do spoil it for everyone. In a just world those
who wreak havoc or cause trouble would be individually punished. In reality, I
have found, they are seldom punished and everyone must suffer from blanket
decisions. This is one such decision. Everyone out there, my loyal readership,
has to suffer because of the actions of the few, or the one. I wish it wasn't
this way, but that is the way of the world.
I can't say
that my decision is 'final'. I may some day resurrect the commentary.
Understand, though, the purpose of the commentary has always been to create a
venue that would allow people to make an informed decision on whether or not to
invest in my books. I have done,
if my count is correct, two-hundred-ninety-three free commentary to date (a few
may just be posts noting there will no commentary, like when there was a death
in the family, I'm not sure if/how those were counted), all of them archived, and still available for
free for anyone to study, perhaps approaching two-thousand charts in total. I
think that is more than enough for someone to make an informed decision on the
books.
Given the circumstances (I know, I know, what the heck are they?),
I can no longer justify spending the eight plus hours per commentary that I
have been. This is time better spent, for me, with my family. I will not be
folding the Kane Trading project. The website will still be up, the books still
available, and if anything I'll be focusing more on the mentorship program than before,
given the decrease in commentary related work. I mentioned recently how I
planned to upgrade the mentorship page, reflecting the fact that all my
mentoring is now done remotely, and so on. Now I am motivated to get to
that.
I will post notes on the What's New page when I update
anything. The KT resource is still here, and I hope people still explore and
investigate the (what I think is an) incredible resource my commentary and
articles are. And as the mentorship program gets updated, if you have an
interest in working one-on-one with me, I hope you will contact me. The
direction I am evolving to on that is even more towards deep, intense training
for the very serious, with longer working timeframes and ongoing
relationships.
I have found, over time, my methodology and my approach to training
fits best with very serious students who intend to make trading their
profession. I better enjoy less quantity and more quality. I'm not trying to
scare anyone away, just help out the selection process, to emphasize that if
you've tried the more usual programs out there, the mass-produced mentorships,
seminars, forums and rooms, and even the so-called one-on-one, and are looking
more for an individualized, longer-term, true one-on-one relationship with
someone who only takes on a few students per year, then get in contact with
me.
So, please keep checking back on this page for an update as to why
I've made this monumental decision, after seven years of uninterrupted
commentary. Check back for updates on the mentorship program, and to see if
I've decided at some point to resurrect the commentary. Check back to see if
I've added anything new, or come up with something interesting. I likely will
continue to add free articles from time to time. Nothing has really changed
except that I won't be doing the long commentary each month. Too bad, too,
because so much is happening, and with what I consider a very likely upcoming
collapse in our economic system, there will be plenty to talk about... Well,
good luck to all, and please stay in touch, and keep frequenting the website.
It's been a great seven years of telling you what I think and showing you a bit
of what I've discovered on this incredible journey.
