	What do you perceive is the role of the market you trade? Discussing this from the perspective of how you perceive other people might be instructive. It is common to interpret what others say from the perspective of roles.     People expect others to fill one of various predetermined roles.     This suggests that they are covertly asking themselves what the role of the person they are dealing with really is. So they lose meaning and understanding if they find someone fulfilling a role other than they expect or if they miscast him/her in one of their preferred roles. Does this ring true for those who often misread or misquote or misconstrue? In any event it is an inner tendency that gets in the way of perceiving reality - not a recipe for seeing the market as it is - more a recipe for seeing the market as a reflection of oneself. Profits will always tend to be elusive as long as your perception of the market is flawed. The market does not know of your role projections onto it, nor does it care.     It just is. So you must change your perception rather than try to force the market into what you want it to be - for you do not have the power to force the market to do anything - it just is. Put another way, winners tend to come from accepters of markets, not from those who expect markets to conform to a role they have projected onto it and get upset when it fails to conform.
