Talk to me, Dave. Be an inspiration. I'll try to break the ice: "Hello. My name is N.Q., and I'm an ETholic."

If so we could charter the world's first chapter of ET Anonymous. Step 2: We came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. That power is Bitch Market. Who makes Kali look motherly. What if Mother Mary had said to our Savior on the Cross, "I told you to...

How do you know you have an ET posting addiction? Do you even remember what thread you were in at midnight last night? Did your loved ones find you slumped over the keyboard in a posting stupor? Do your little ones beg, "Daddy, please don't post on ET tonight?"

So let us begin by asking ourselves the tough questions. Were I to walk into your house, what songs might I hear playing on your stereo? "Wasting Away in MargarETville?" "One Scotch, One Whiskey, and One ET?" "When I Post, I Post Alone?" Fellow sufferers are encouraged to contribute their own...

Well then ARGT, follow with me as part of my codependent family as we kick the ET habit. And keep foremost in mind that we must not substitute one addiction for another. All the lesser addiictions than ET will sing their Siren song: drugs, alcohol, pornography, smoking, gluttony, promiscuity. We...

Redneck, I am not writing for ET posters like yourself who use ET medicinally, or who are social ETer's, or who know when to quit posting on ET. But rather to those like myself, and you know who you are, though you may not be able to admit it, for whom one post is never enough. Those who if...

We admitted we were powerless over our ET posting addiction - that our lives had become unmanageable.

Thanks, JJ. For not posting one of your charts showing entries to the the tick of the turn. It's so humiliating.

Here is the kind of example you were looking for of an "unclean" transition (my beloved E-Signal). Remember, I am not promoting TDT to smart guys like you, just to the average run-of-the-mill ETidiot. So I don't show them such examples.

I only trade NQ. So to me a "consolidation" is a four tick range at mid-day. A "congestion" is a series of alternating red and green one-minute bars 10 points high after a Fed announcement. Being an old dog that is roughly what I remember the classical distinction between the two to be.

An even better example is what is happening overnight in NQ right now. So you don't try to use a hammer to turn a screw.

I usually follow the charlatanic SCT model and only post ideal examples of TDT, but here is a negative case in point.

That of course depends on what you mean by "consolidation". If by that you mean "narrow range", TDT properly tuned for the time frame in question will flatline orange. If you mean "congestion" or what Jack calls a "high volatility stall", it will whipsaw you like any other oscillator. It is not...

The market is dull tonight, so I went and read the Parallel-Universe Jack thread here for today. It passeth all understanding why they do not long for "Red-Light-Short-Green-Light-Long". I have not seen so much bullshit since Bernie Kornfeld's "Do you sincerely want to be rich?". Alas, that was...
