    Video , why do indicator based systems fail.

    Best educational posts on the site are under Scat Man's old posts as "gnome". Read them all and take notes. He's talked about chapter one a few times: "Chapter 1 1. Pay attention. (You'd be surprised at how often THIS is a problem.) 2. Trade the charts. Look for correlations of market...

    Did Altucher fail as a trader?

    I know exactly what you mean. Let's see, this is what you posted: Altucher, are you sure you were not lying to your blog readers about trading? I think you were." That's mature? I thought you were rather rude and called you out a little teeny bit. You made a statement about your...

    Birinyi rides the bull, sees S&P 500 soaring to 1,700

    I posted the following last year on the great Birinyi: "A few years back one of the daily contributors at the dorseywright.com site did an analysis of Mr. Birinyi and his calls on TA, tops and bottoms etc. It appeared well researched, and while I have no idea of its validity, they made him...

    So Laslo Birinyi just called the bottom on CNBC...

    A few years back one of the daily contributors at the dorseywright.com site did an analysis of Mr. Birinyi and his calls on TA, tops and bottoms etc. It appeared well researched, and while I have no idea of its validity, they made him (Birinyi) out to be very wishy washy and vacillating...

    Someone give me a bullish case

    I recently started putting a few longer term chips back on the table when a variety of the bullish percent charts I use turned up. They have served me well for many years, and you gotta dance with the one that brung ya. http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.pnf?c=$BPSPX,P...
