Understanding Emotions in Charts

What if you could learn to identify emotions in charts?  What if you could quantify where key emotional decisions were made, and look to profit from that knowledge?  How would you use that information to your advantage?  In this article we are going to examine how emotions are visible in charts, as well as how to understand what emotions look like at extremes.

Your emotions will always seek to move back to a place of equilibrium when stretched.  Were your emotions wounded?  Your emotions will seek a means to heal themselves.  Were you moved to place of extreme excitement?  Your emotions will seek a means to calm themselves.  Were you moved to a place of fear or panic?  Your emotions will seek a means of creating safety.  How you choose to navigate this process can be by either destructive or healthy means.

The wealthiest people in the world have something in common.  They are owners, investors, creators, and builders.  They have a mindset of building organizations and structures that will last, produce profit regularly, and re-investing that profit into building more of the same.
