Bone, I'm still interested in what you have to say regarding long-term TA. You were the most confident that it is superior out of everyone, so why do you think so? Thanks. EDIT: Or is it because of the automated trade entries you mentioned earlier?

eurusdzn, This article was a great read; thank you for digging it up for me. Handle, I appreciate your insight as always. It seems to me you believe in trading the best setups (and ones that make sense to you), which I imagine requires a great deal of patience so keep on keeping on. CyJackX -...

I appreciate everyone's input - I'd also appreciate if this didn't devolve from where it is now. So far, there has been a lot of meaningful information in this thread and I've seen enough threads go from this to wars quickly lol. By the way, Apophenia / comagnum, thanks for reminding me of the...

This is the best answer I've seen thus far as to why using TA for the long-term is a good idea, although it still feels much more like a confirming tool than it feels like a predicting tool. Any thoughts on that, CyJackX? You mention it gives you idea of how all players are moving because...

On the topic of pricing already factoring in fundamentals, could one not argue that price also factors in technical analysis? It's paradoxical in a way, but I think it sort of supports the old adage that it is a self-fulfilling prophecy. I tend to think in both cases, it is the lack of consensus...

What reasoning or evidence (anecdotal or empirical) leads you to believe this? And if so, do you believe TA gives you an edge over FA? Or do you use these two in combination to confirm one another?

All of those elements should impact a private company too. The absolute valuation process is similar in private acquisitions as it is in equity investing. There are adjustments, of course, for synergies (which I tend to think most companies greatly over-value prior to acquisition), but overall...

This thread was a result of my investigations thus far. I understand your point, and I know a lot of people suffer from the pitfall of not thinking for themselves, but that's not the intention here. I just acknowledge there are people more experienced than me in the field who may be able to...

I'm happy to accept this if given the logic behind why it is valuable in the long-term. I feel it is a dangerous tool to use in the long-term because it vindicates traders into believing price will likely go a certain direction (due to volume changes or shifting sentiment) when I feel price in...

Disclaimer: I'm a (relatively) fresh graduate with a major in Finance, so as might be expected, I primarily learned about fundamental analysis and corporate finance for the last four years of my life. Therefore, there might be some bias in what I say. TL;DR at bottom. For the last few months...
