Linguistic structuralism studies the meaning of language based not just on definitions, but also on the relationships of words and sounds to each other. Lévi-Strauss's insight was to see that this concept of structuralism in linguistics could be applied to anthropology as well. He saw that while some cultures are very different from others, they all seem to have certain internal structural relationships in common.

This is where predictive analytics is going to come in handy.

A recent reader survey demonstrated that one of the biggest trading psychology issues that traders face is related to their own inability to just sit and wait for the best time to take an action, whether that be to enter a trade, move a stop loss, or wait for the planned profit target. This inability to simply wait leads to entering trades when there are no trades to take (overtrading), exiting trades too early without allowing them time to develop, and exiting trades before the take profit has been reached.
