I created the Price, Method, Techno methodology and trained 100 Billion people I may also have created Insanity with a smidge of Shamwow. Forbes magazine paid me to be on their cover from here on till eternity.
First, price has to magnetically induce magnetism which cteates a total meltdown.
Meanwhile, back in the future we examine the acceleration coil that has been trapping price between the two Mastodons.

How to play this?
Clearly a break out trade, but lots of fake outs if you try too close.
This is where I mention about the M-Hedge lines (white combo). They are 20-point displacements of highest high/ lowest low around the M-s. That’s when I would try. Once the trigger level was hit (it is good for a quick scalp) start scaling in to the direction of the breakout in progress; price is not going to be let dipping back in the accelerator range. Stop losses could be made tight.
I would ride the break out until a new Mastodon print appears (RSI2 peak print between 87.5&94.5 or 12.5&2.5).
I should also mention that I made a trail stop option that only starts locking in gains after the RSI2 goes overbought/oversold depending on direction.
Of course, the two magic numbers had to be made exempt for the all of other trail stops.
Let’s refrain from mentioning the lack of refrain in this Meta-verse (pun intended) & let’s go back to buying Teslas by the pair.
I had a headline shuffled in saying that EUR/USD pierced resistance at 1.1655 this morning – I did not ask for this opinion.
First and foremost, don’t listen to news. They serve someone’s purpose. The broker wants you to buy when they know that there is no more upside. Being contrarian may serve you at times, but you will ending up negating things you shouldn’t as well.
The idea is the same as cutting the picture of a Coca Cola into the film roll for seconds, so you only perceive it subconsciously. After a while you start handling things as your own facts, no matter who put them in your head.
Now, for the technical part: resistance by what standards?
There is no such thing as objective resistance. The 16-pip wide (1/2 fulctuation-size) salmon box due to an RSI2 reversal divergence starting from a new higher high beating the preceeding 26-sample range
The yellow box is due to the presence of the End Line (the purple diagonal), which is basically an energy discharge notification (CI-7 crosses below 51). The box itself is displaced by 16 pips (1/2 fulctuation-size) on the closer end and 1.2x fluctuation size at the further end.
The idea behind these yellow and blue boxes is that you should be fading moves arriving here if they are against the right direction (it went too far in the wrong direction).
Now, which is the right direction?
All comes down to the wave count.
If you just saw an ABC correction to the upside, what do you think is coming next?
Wave 1, of course. Wave 1 is expected to fall shy from the landing zone of Wave 3 measured by the 15_MIN_ATR_TARGETS routine. As a body insert (label), the core routine was posted here.
Wave 1 is expected to fail before the closer end of the orange box, usually by 20 pips or somewhat less.
The other method is the mirror effect of the pop of the 3 standard deviaton displacement of the 62-sample Linear Regression line (Effect-Counter Effect) – these have al been posted lessons.
What is the expectation for a Wave 2? Faking out the second Doji by 4-9 pips.
What comes next? Wave 3 to the downside, with the ATR box re-adjusted by consolidation.
Back to Psychology, how many times did you hear Ira Epstein mentioning Fibo Nazis? Zero. His targets are the Bollinger Bands, Window Envelopes and moving averages.
A playlist of David Paul vids, he talks about training CFAs somewhere in these 10-min shorts, and how they are shaking their heads when they hear “Fibonacci”.
I can’t stress enough how important the Wave ID list is that I posted in the Taper Harley entry.
I have a quick tab on my phone to remind me of what I am looking for as an end to the current wave.
Anti Pasta? – Pro Pasta!
Hedging inflation with Crypto is another disaster waiting to happen. A quote from below:
…with all this said, the best formula for calculating S1 is measuring a fluctuation maximum (42 pips) from the last continuation divergence.
There was this rally where you would think it had to be impulsive, because of its powerful nature, and you would put numbers on the waves, and you would be… wrong.
See, my initial reaction was that wave 5 would come next, or wave 5 got somehow absorbed, etc.
The first problem here is that both a Wave A and a Wave 1’s mo was identified as a 0M. Further adding to this was the fact that price crossed over the E-67 band, which would push your thinking more towards a Wave 1.
The third problem was the shallow pullback to 1 sd beyond the 62LR line. Surely that had to be Wave 2 – not.
The fourth problem is looking for an absolute extreme for a Wave B ending instead of a 14-sample lowest low / highest high and that it ended 1sd out, not at the 62LR.
The proper wave count was of course corrective.
C in fact was so powerful, that it blew past the 3-DAY ATR reversal zone of a normal Wave 3, which capped out at 1.1654.
Having a corrective wave structure at hand, your mind can be more relaxed instead of having to anticipate a beat beyond a Wave 5. This ABC was the wave 5. Now we have a missing beat to contend with on the other end, below 1.1524.
By the way, the 4-hour Wave 2 & Wave 4 continuation divergence was picked up correctly by the Overdrive240 routine.
Besides these new findings, now I’m starting to apply the new wave-id principles on the daily chart as well & keep on updating the Wave id list that I posted in my Taper Harley blog entry.
Inflation is always, always a Milton Friedman quote.

What is tapering in trading?
A ends in a 0M at 2sd B ends with single Zero around 62 LR or 1sd, B can be very short C ends with a taper (0M) or a triple M or acceleration (single Zero) at 2sd
A full length ABC takes the 9-sample stoch oversold / overbouģt twice
When an ABC ends with a bang, don’t be rushing in in its original direction Rember, a new serving would only be stopped by a 0M
1 ends with an MD (0M) beyond E-67 2 (rushed) ends with an S at 1 sd 2 (all out) ends with faking out the 2nd doji / 1sd 2 should come back through the far end of E67
3 ends with a taper (pushing back highs sold/lows bought multiple times) likely in the ATR box 4 (rushed) ends with an MD & sets up continuation divergence relative to 2 4 (all out) ends in a 0M by 2st & takes price oversold / overbought twice on stoch 9 4 (absorbed) may not register on the timeframe, but 5 could add on gains beyond what was reasonable from 3 (ATR +30% projection); the result could be short lived
5 ends with a bang – still shy of the record set by 3 (perhaps @ the 2sd failure line), likely with a no break extension
There would be good times coming, where all investments would yield measly returns, and the trader shall be king, so let the good times stroll…
check the close back below the 2sd gold (failure) line close to the top of the hour
w1 buys the right for a wave structure by scoring beyond the closer end of the E-67 band; it normally arrives with directional volatility, i.e. the hourly fractal to fractal travel length exceeds 28 pips; relative to the consolidation level it usually peters out 20 pips shy of the 3-day ATR
Image shows rights purchased. Swing length was 30 pips.
w2 comes bavk through the E-67 band and takes the hourly RSI2 to oversold (20)/ overbought (80) at least on a temporary basis
w3 exhausts the available energy and typically ends with a visible hourly RSI2 reversal divergence; the suspect zone for this divergence to end is the box that is on one end 3-day ATR distance away from the consolidation level and 30% further at the other end; you should not be defying the progress of the wave 3 since it makes a break out and the counter directional volatility is low until reaching inside the box
Image shows the target zone for the reversal divergence of wave 3. Projection is ftom the purple arrow.
w4 is letting the counter directional volatility slip out of the gate twice; typically you would be able to spot a measuring leg and a divergent leg on the hourly RSI2: a slight undercut of the first fractal printed by w4 should be a great entry for a w5; it is also a common place that strength wise the w4 makes a beat beyond what w2 managed to muster thus setting up a continiation divergence
w5 makes / tries to make a beat (a no break / coasting move) beyond the exhaustion level; the beat itself may be anywhere from 2-28 pips away (less than fluctuation size) from the outlier point made by w3 so you should be scaling out of holdings and scaling in for a counter directional wave structure; you could have a staircase for instance at 2, 8, 17 and 26 pips and put most weight on 8 and 17; w5 would make an attempt to replicate the maximum strength printed by w3 but would ultimately fall shy of it
The projection triangle should had come from the gollowing fractal, but you get the idea.
from here on an ABC correction should follow at a very minimum: a Wave 2 should be retracing and making a beat beyond the 2nd hourly doji that was made on the way
a fake out of the doji may mean 4-9 pips beyond its centre
The above knowledge about wave structure, length measurements, volatility changes, divergences (programming knowlege wouldn’t hurt either) are things that a trader should be in posession of.
Trading requires 3 different sets of skills, that of an Execution Trader’s, a Trader’s and a Trading Strategist’s (above the level of a chartist).
These 3 sets of skills are almost never held by a single person.
Those selling courses and memberships online are little more than Execution traders, regardless of what they are posing as.
For a good sense of what a Trading Strategist does, read the last sentences in th Neverending Embedding.
Nonsesical part
What’s cracking snake gang… Err… I mean…
Hey there, fake-eye nation! Take it G-Easy!
What do you mean?
When I say, my name isn’t Caleb Maddox, I mean it.
When I say I didn”t go to Yale for nothing, I mean it.
If I ever say I can F you rich, I mean it.
When I say there is only coffee in this cooler, I mean it (just ask my drinking buddy chief of research).
When I say I’m long the inflation trade, I mean it.
When I say I drive 4 quads of a BMW-M, on your screen you can see it – made a segment just for that (I called it “The Call” , noone is going to suspect anything).
Unfortunately there’s still more to the RSI2 story – boy, it’s more than I dared to think about.
How many times did they play this on 92.7! – never knew it was Kylie – minus perhaps Stock, Aitken & Waterman.
So let’s play master & serpent.
Observations.
There is always a serving side and a counter side.
Serving is taking the lead.
Serving / opening is usually done by a Single Zero.
On occasions the serving rights would be taken over by a triple 0, a triple M or even triple S, so peel an eye out for these.
& all this s*t is going down at a complete disregard for the current market type.
Countering a serve is a Zero + M combination typically.
If the ball manages to make progress between the Zero and the M, one more hit may be necessary.
Observe.
0 = Zero
0/S = Single Zero
M = Measuring Leg / Mastodon / Magenta
S = Shy of an M
Unfortunately, being the server side does not mean that you will get to make the next serving from a gain, it is possible to counter the server into a retreat & even to take over the serving rights on the fly.
Observatory.
101
Be like gopher-chucks. Bruce Lee died the day after I was born.
Speaking of Odekirk…
What if the serving side gets to return the ball with a wrist flap leaning into the net at the M line? That means wave 3 of the same wave structure was put on the plate. Eagerness on the serving side, no time to prepare for digestion on the other. (No Time To Compute)
I would think an “S” would be enough for a continuation up.
If I know so much more about the subject than anyone else, how can I still perform poorly?
Trading is hard. You need to have the right definitions for everything and noone can tell you about what even needs defining.
to illustrate my point
This is why I am in the market 92% of the time all the time.
No, I did not get a margin call, nor did I have to top up the margin. I let down myself by disregarding the everybody’s long sentiment, falling in love with the idea of a move back to the Keltinger band first for a major crash, thus implanting the wrong fears on top of rolling out and deleting hedge orders amid confused undefined conditions. One better not play like that.
To get things back under control, steps have to be taken.
Definitions are to be put right.
Embedded market: 3 weeks spent over 75 or below 25 by the measurement of 18-sample 3 delay D line. No daily or other metric to interfere with this.
The process of mbedding neutralizes the initial toxic effects of the overbought/oversold condition – the new environment. It is like a diver who has to equalise the inner and outer pressure having arrived at a new depth.
The most important puzzle piece is black and white hedge entry and exit definitions if you have holdings.
Must hedge 10+2 pips beyond the first M-axis attempt drawn fractal.
Must hedge upon a violaing close on the wrong side of the M-axis, 2-pips beyond the hourly low/high printed.
Hedge exits are – 2FS oversold at 2nd green/ red zone / 2-std (14 sample) window envelope encounter with the same color combo.
For further uniformisation, the 3 other stochastic measurements should be more or less identical across time frames: the Comfort levels alway derive the range made out of 4H samples regardless of the plotted time frame, and the Crack Ho is a 60-sample 3 delay lo/hi hourly stochastic D (120 sample on 30-min, 15 sample on 4H), the 9-sample 3 delay hi/lo hourly stochastic D for a long term/ medium term / short term feel. The 60 & 9 as a pair can bring attention to low risk continuation locations where the move far appart whilst the 60 is staying low / high.
The 2x fluctuation size displacement (overbought / oversold neckline for the day) is always calculated from 4H consolidation levels derived from a 7-sample CI reading and this would serve as a better substitute during the embedding phase versus the 15-min ATR projections as the volatility changes become less linear.
Fair = last consolidation level
The main tool becomes the quarter lines: the 15%, the 50% displacements of last week’s range and a 3-rd zone can start at the window envelope.
Here is where the double clutching / 2x effect becomes visible and by now I have implemented the “push” function (open palm – push away the mountain) to bring attention to a move that has completely crossed over zone 2 (the 15-50% segment). Be like water.
Look at how only every second hit of the buy zone matters. The week after the push week there is a good opportunity to add / re-enter with the second settlement in mind.
Tips & tricks
I gave away a good trick in my Keltinger Moat article.
Love kills & volatility builds.
Even the most notorious move is not likely to be lent more than 12 legs.
The more thinly traded / scatteted the order flow, the longer price can travel in an undisturbed fashion until it finally runs out of rope.
Leg 10-12 are likely going to start from beyond the 121 EMA on the hourly (a clue should had been failing to carry out a proper mean reversion). 7-9 are from beyond E-89 and the first and second trifecta are expected to come from beyond the closer end of the E-16 band and from beyond E-32.
So yes, Luka I think you have seen all 12 legs.

& a known sequence of events…
WEEKLY embedded to the upside, E-21 is a buy for 280+ pips or to the window envelope
WEEKLY embedded to the upside, a violation of the last week’s buy zone before the E-21 is a counter trade buy for at least 70 pips or to the window envelope
WEEKLY embedded to the downside, E-21 is a sell for 280+ pips or to the window envelope
WEEKLY embedded to the downside, a violation of the last week’s sell zone before the E-21 is a counter trade sell for at least 70 pips or to the window envelope
2nd settlements closing back outside the box are a counter trend trade back to one of the continuation zones: E-21 / last week’s catch zone
On a break/push of a smiley target the window envelope
Here’s an example of slipping with dishonesty – someone I had to unfollow on LinkedIn. (You should always, always be suspicious of cell phone statement snapshots.) This guy in particular was pretending to have an auto trading routine. He had huge lot sizes, always round ones, 20, 40 lots typically trading gold on Forex. Had a stop loss, as it was proven with occasional losses to make it look more plausible. He seemed to be all overjoyed even over a 1.8 pip gain which was awkward, because when trading for real the slippage on the broker’s side could easily turn that very trade to a losing one. Then with a new statement there was a 20.01 lot trade that transpired. When you delete the previous lot size, the manual trading app defaults to .01 lots. Then you enter 20 not noticing that the 1 micro lot is still there, giving away that you have diddly squat for an auto trading routine and you are not trustworthy due to running a scam.

How do you figure out the displacement for a parallel line, when the projection fractal does not coincide in time segment with either of the two known coordinates to be able to make a simple deduction?
The yellow is the M-Axis, the interrupted blue is the parallel.

Hi,
I’m from the communications department, and I would like to ask, what the fuck?
You are a professional trader if your main income arrives from trading.
It does not matter whether you have worked for Lehman Brothers or not, if you issued a crypto scam, operated a broker and forged trading statements, purchased Ted Talk stage time or the cover of Forbes, rented cars & helicopters, bought lots of monitors… if you made up a plausible urban legend that you turned 2k into 170k (but there is no way to prove it), if you made people pay for trading courses or trading routines, you are not necessarily a trader, in fact, you likely aren’t.
A scammer darkly
Beginning to see a pattern here?
If it walks like a duck & talks like a duck, it’s a duck. Shrimp don’t want to go camping, they can only think of scamping. Take it from a krill. Not Kreil, krill.
If they could only make money with trading, they would not have the urge to scam people out of what they have. (The Institute of ) Online Trading Academy* a la UK. Million-Dollar Traders Perpetrators.
They bought their tickets, they knew what they were getting into. I say let them crash!
My empathy is only to the extent of a line from Jan Blomqvist’s Empty Trading Floor song:
We just want to feel something we’re not.
I only have a problem with you if start scamming people out of their savings posing as something you are not.
In order to be a trader, you need to buy and sell something for gains, let it be equities, Index Funds, ETFs, ETNs, commodities, futures, currencies, CFDs, bonds, yields, SPACs, crypto scam, shoe laces, armadillo meat, art collection, blow or stolen goods. Betting is not necessarily trading, i.e. playing binary options isn’t.
Also, being successful in one gender of trading does not say anything about how you would fare with another. The fact that data can be turned into a chart does not make the different genders of trading be anything alike, despite of this impression that you may get.
If your only income this month was $10 from selling something for a profit, you are technically a professional trader – being able to sustain yourself is a different matter.
As you can see from the bold highlights below, I had months when I qualified, but now I can claim trading as my main profession over a yearly sample size.
If you hear someone saying, “I turned x money to y” you are facing a magician, an illusionist. Scammers feel the draw to unaccountable, murky methods & overall existence. A real trader would never say such sentence, but would be able to tell how much they made yesterday, last month, last year purely from trading and show a detailed statement to back these claims up.
Just remember this; if a shrink is rapping, that does mot make him/her a professional shrinkwrapper.
There are multiple options available right here, besides my way there is also the hwy. There is more than one way to skim a milk.
You know if a statement shows 3.1 pips average or below, that this was done by Macdulio (imagine if I had to pay 1+ pips spread on EUR/USD!). Oh yeah, the number of trades is also up there accordingly.
Similarities & differences for August & September.
Both month had 22 trading days, the trading instrument was the same & the common retaliator was me.
2021 August2021 September
What you may be missing out on at the first pass, is that underneath the consistency is the fact that I am not making large bets, but rather making a serious effort of adding to the equity consistently. Instead of 5-10 trades per month I put on 600+.
At least now you can tell that you know a professional trader & that’s a wrap.
As for me, I probably have come across a real trader once on a forum, who said that he makes 3-5% a month and I would consider entertaining this even without seeing his statement. He’s certainly good, but who would entrust a Forex broker with $400k?
An overnight trading success takes a decade of preparation.
Empty Floor
Song by Jan Blomqvist
Emma wants the secret to be told That the fucking rainbow has no gold And she knows exactly what to say Confusing it completely the next day And we just wanna feel something we’re not And forget about the limits that we got
Like you’re losing your senses Abusing them too much Another try to break the fences Seem to fall with just a touch
The unsaid always talks to you at night And you don’t even know you, get it right And the days are passing by, as they do So Emma wants to stop the time with you
Like you’re losing your senses Abusing them too much Your never-ending dance is Endlessly untouched The illusion of chances Confusing you too much Another try to break the fences Seem to fall with just a touch
Emma knows exactly how you feel But you can’t even ask if this is real Recorded voice cracks in, “please hold the line” Was the floor this empty all the time?
Bit of nostalgia for the old me, Sade: MEWP operator
…used to get caught up in dog fights…
The account can no longer be found on MyFXBook.
There were plenty of others, in fact LinkedIn is full of these people. Not gonna go deep, just would mention doctored images for statements where anything might be off from calculations to font, font color, no consideration for the order sorting type (symbol, order, opening time, closing time, profit and no other option!) Not detailed, partial MT4 screen shots and self proclaimed labels singing to the skies.
So yeah, don’t get on the wrong side of me!
We’ve got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We’ve got tonight, why don’t you swallow?!
I know, what started out as a celebration became a shaming.
But you have to take the good with the bad.
Take it, just like you should.

Based on my trial year, I was able to make $447.63 per day (9,847.96/22 – but that was a fluke, Skywalker) in my best month with around 30k equity, 500:1 leverage trading Eur/Usd only at 0.2 pip typical spread and 0.6 pip commission – imagine what account size you would need with 20x less leverage – that’s a weak no. My 1-year daily average was (38,890.57/253=153.71) – that’s a strong no.
As for you Greg, you are gonna rot in hell basted in your secret sauce for your deeds, like the scammer worm you are – that’s a hell no.
As for YouTube watchers, always remember that these people who appear out of nowhere trying to get you to hand over your money pay for their ads with what he/she takes away from you. You are paying for their lifestyle. There has never been a sincere / honest / successful trader who was in need of an ad like that, so develop an immediate shielding reflex against them for your own sake.
Congratulations, you just paid somebody a bunch of money, just because his last name is Sachs. At this point we cannot completely rule out that this wasn’t the dumbest decision you ever made. I would like to remind you that the Trump university now comes with a trial month of Trump Steaks, and there’s nothing that would get you in a Sharper Image.
* when at the Online Trading Academy I filled out the field of how much I had lost to date, I remember writing 160k. “You need this!” – they told me about the 6,5k course of theirs (it turns out, I didn’t) before telling me that I cannot attend the free event any more since I was there 3 times already and I never bought anything, well other than gas, but there were free sandwiches and cookies at San Jose and Concord with ever shrinking catering and guest speakers – this is how I got to see Sean Kim from Scottrade live whom – by the way – wasn’t a trader, but a market maker. It is quite different trading against your own clients with the broker’s money knowing the order flow at any given moment.
I have learnt to fish. The longer I live the more money I will make. Taking losses on your own terms is the very first step towards taking control of your own destiny. Not spending your money on YouTube scammers is step number one-A.

To me, trading was always about getting the definitions right, but what makes it extra difficult was figuring out what you needed definitions for in the first place.

Although they do throw each other every once in a while to underline their credibility and to undermine someone else’s that they are not closely affiliated with. They try not to bite into a feeding hand.
Ask yourself the question, when Anton Kreil (whom was made famous by a reality TV show called Million Dollar Traders) attacks Tim Sykes and threatens him with exposing him and his finances, does he do this for the right or the wrong reasons? Did he or did he not turn 3k into 60k? Hmm…. See you must separate yourself from the m.o. of the scammers harshly. I turned £38k into 0 with the previous Forex brokers I had accounts with, yet I am the only professional trader on this page (despite of currently still holding a daytime job), the rest just wants to leech on your money. We are not gonna go into details of the involvement of heavy duty scammers (likely charging tens of thousands for their “course”) with other crimes such obtaining inside information (“fundamental trading”) and bribery to cut something back in return – pay attention to the eat out drink together & let’s sexually exchange (if you scratch my balls, I’ll come & scratch your back) parties. If you think this is professional trading, I have nothing more to say.
I don’t think I’ll ever make sense of this, so I’ll just be numb until further notice.
It seems it does make a difference if you grew up reading Dr. Justice comic books or not.
I just realized that my The Raven translation from Poe is no longer anywhere on the net (above all I am a poet), so don’t mind me for inserting it here on my own paid space.
E. A. Poe: A holló / Achilles Dent verzió
Végtelen, kietlen éjjelen Fucsra, elfeledett bölcseletek fölött görnyedtem Elgyengülten, megtörten képzelôdtem, bólogattam Már-már elszundítottam, amikor hirtelen kattogást hallottam Mintha valaki a pajta ajtaját kaparta, kaparta volna „Vendég az – motyogtam –, ajtómat tapogatja; vendég fog jönni.”
Igen, emlékszem arra a kopár decemberre Amikor az elhaló parázsszemek szellemeket szögeztek a földre És én a holnaphoz fohászkodtam: vigye el leküzdhetetlen fájdalmam Sajgó lapjaim tépje ki, vegye át az elveszett Lenórát A ragyogót, a ritkát, kit már csak az angyalok hívhatnak Lenórának Idelenn nincsen már a neve sem
Selyem bánat, kármin karnisok bizonytalan zaja Riogattak – ismeretlen rémülettel töltöttek el; Szívem szaporaságát szelidítve ismételgettem „Valaki bebocsátásért könyörög, esdekel, kérlel Valaki bebocsátásért könyörög Ez lehet, csak ez lehet
Tovább nem tétovázván erôt vettem a lelkemen „Uram – mondam – vagy hölgyem, bocsásson meg nekem Az igazság az, hogy elszenderedtem, és a kopogása oly erôtlen! Olyan halkan, szinte gondoskodóan kocogtaott az ajtómban Hogy alig hallottam!” – és kapumat szélesre tártam Ám odakint a sötétség várakozott csak
Mélyre meredve a feketébe álltam, kábultan ábrándoztam Rettegtemben olyanokat képzeltem, amiket halandó még sosem A csendet, a fojtogató ürességet egyetlen szó törte csak meg A számat félszegen elhagyó, mélyülô kételyem: „Lenóra?” – kérdeztem hirtelen S visszhang hangja válaszolta vissza: „Lenóra!”
Ismét feltámadt a keserû bánat, amikor a pajta felé fordulva Újra hallottam a kaparást, és ezúttal sokkal hangosabban „Bizonyosan – mondtam – az ablakrácsok felôl jön; Hadd lássam hát, mi van arra, mi lehet a rejtély oka Mi a hangok kiváltója? Hadd nyugodjak meg, Hisz ez csak a szél lehet…
Ablakomat kireteszelve, kitárva elémtárult egy hatalmas holló látványa Méltóságtelien lebegett az éltes madárka a szárnyait egyre csak rázva Valamitôl nem tudott nyugodni, közeledett, majd egyszere letelepedett Úriasan, komoran kaparta tovább onnantól Pallasz mellszobrát Ami pont a pajtám ajtaja felett kapott helyet A holló csak kapart, ült, és egyebet nem tett
A mord madár rosszkedvem vidám vigyorra váltotta Halálra vált ábrázata síron túliságot mutatott „Csapzott a tollazatod – mondtam –, de nem vágyom társaságra Te elkóborolt, ôsholló-szörny, ki az éjszaka partjait bóklássza Áruld el nekem, milyen úri nevet viselsz odalenn A pokol partjain?” – S szólt a holló: „Sohasem”
Sokáig figyeltem az ügyetlen hollót válaszokat várva De amit mondott, annak nem volt se eleje, se veleje El kell ismernem, élô lényt nem áldott meg még Pallasz mellszobráról egyetlen látó lény, egyetlen Pajtám ajtaja felett terpesztô madár-bestia sem Kinek neve éppenséggel „Sohasem”
Ez a holló, a plasztikámon trónoló csak azt a szót tudta Mintha a teljes lelke egy tagadásban lett volna eltemetve Egyebet nem mondott, egyetlen tollat sem hullajtott Én pediglen alig hallhatóan elejtettem: „Más barátok is elszálltak Holnapra ô is magamra hagy, ahogy a remény sem marad” S a madár egyetértett: „Sohasem”
A szétszaggatott csendben lassanként feleszméltem „Kétségtelen, azt ismétled, hogy ’megakadtatûalemez’ És a megakasztás oka egy elégedetlen mester Aki katasztrófával büntet, mind többel és mind gyakrabban Mígnem a melankólia marad a remény utolsó takarója Vagy… nem? Nem, sohasem!”
A holló szomorú lelkemet tovább vigasztalta, mulattatta Odagurítottam hát egy széket a szobor élô elôadója elé A bársony besüppedt aladtam, és én elmélyedem a show-ban Meredten figyeltem, mi lehet a vészjós-baljós krákogásban Mit rejthetett el ez a madár, ez a komor, szikár, esetlen Mi van abban a szóban, hogy „Sohasem”?
Így ücsörögtem találgatásba veszve, nem jutva elôbbre A szárnyas a tüzelô szemeivel szívem mélyét tovább égette Figyeltem, fejem hátravetve, a fotel mûanyagának téve Hagyván, hogy egy lámpás fénye csúfoljon körbe Tudván, hogy a viola vetület már nem olvad el, nem múlik el Nem tûnik el sohasem
Aztán a levegô elnehezült, láthatatlan parfümmel telt el Seraphim hintette, kinek létpei csilingeltek érintve a puha földet „Hitvány! – kiáltottam – Istened küldött, angyalok kísértek Hogy kivegyétek belôlem negyven fokon kedvesem: Kicsi kincseden ideje túladni, Lenórát itt az ideje elfelejteni” S szólt a holló: „Shohasem!”
„Látnok! – kiáltottam – Te gonosz! Légy bár madár, légy bár ördög Akár szellemek küldtek, akár a pokol vetett le partjairól E végtelen földeken, e rettenetes, sivár, kopár kietlenségben Ebben házban, a rémek otthonábam, ôszintén mondd meg, kérlek Sebemre ír hol terem? Kérve kérlek, áruld el nekem!”’ S szólt a holló: „Sohasem!”
„Látnok! – kiáltottam – Te gonosz! Légy bár madár, légy bár ördög A felettünk ívelô mennyboltra, a mindkettônk által imádott Istenre Mondd meg ennek a bánattal elnehezített léleknek A szent szûz, kinek neve Lenóra a mennyekben Ragyogó, sugárzó kedvesem sikerül-e felednem?” S szólt a holló: „Sohasem!”
„Madár vagy barát vagy, vedd ezt válásnak! – pattantam fel Takarodj vissza az éjszaka árkába, a pokol legsötétebb bugyrába Ne hullajts tollat, úgy vidd el magaddal minden hazugságodat! Hagyd magára magányomat! Hagyd békén a mellszobromat! Húzd ki csôröd a szívem közepébôl; ne lássalak többé sosem” S szólt a holló: „Sohasem!”
Mozdulatlan nyugalomban néz csak rám a „kár-vallottam” Pallasz sápadt mellszobrán, a pajta ajtaja felett valamivel A holló szemek most álmodó démont rejtenek A lámpás fölüle árnyékokat másol belôle a földre És az én lelkem a vetületbôl nem emelkedhet el Többé már Sohasem
E. A. Poe: Egyedül / Achilles Dent verzió
A gyerekkor órájától nem olyan voltam Amilyenek mások voltak – nem azt láttam Amit mások láttak – nem tudtam meríteni, Közös forrásból szenvedélyt szedni Egyanazon okból nekem nem lett a kedvem Emelkedett – ugyanattól az én szívem El sohasem nehezedett – Csak a magány volt, mit szerettem Csak a magány volt, mi szeretett Kiskoromban, a legviharosabb lét elõtt Az élet hajnalán felemelkedett, elõjött A jóság és betegség minden mélyébõl A rejtély, mi még mindig magágoz köt A gátakat elsodró áradattól fogva A sziklától, melynek vörös volt a foka Az õszi arany színébe öltözködött Naptól, amely köröttem görgött A villámtól, ami az égbõl súlytott le A villámtól, ami nem talált el mégse’ A mennykõtõl, a kitörni készülõ vihartól A felhõtõl, az alak megformálójától (Mialatt kék maradt a menny maradéka) Démon uralta látképemet
