WRB trader pointed out earlier in this thread that some other poster documented his/her systems trades for 5 -7 months (TA based trading) and surf STILL said that their results were just luck. You can't win with this guy. :D Of course we are having fun here! At the end of the day, whether...

It's gotta be a defense mechanism. He's entrenched himself so deeply in what he believes to be true that his mind must deflect any rational argument against those beliefs for fear of a total cranial meltdown :)

You say private info is insider info (used to make insider trades/illegal activities) right? If so, why would it be mentioned in an article dealing with TECHNICAL ANALYSIS, concerning past price data? It would be irrelevant. Fact is, you are confused. Or, you are obfuscating. Either way...

Coolweb, is that you?

Nothing to do with faith and everything to do with reading comprehension, a skill which you clearly need to sharpen :D

YOU say "private information" is insider trading info but the article says the "usefulness of past price when making an abnormal profit." What does insider trading have to do with using past price?? It doesn't. If you KNOW news is ABOUT to be released that is very negative to a stock and...

Focus on this instead: "There are few sophisticated technical rules that may explain why technical analysis works. For example, Treynor and Ferguson (JF, 2985) demonstrate the usefulness of past price information in making an abnormal profit. They develop a Bayesian probability estimate using...

Surf missed your logical post concerning HIS article.

""There are few sophisticated technical rules that may explain why technical analysis works. For example, Treynor and Ferguson (JF, 2985) demonstrate the usefulness of past price information in making an abnormal profit. "" (from Surf's link) I agree, it's very useful to many traders.

So he posted a link that contradicts one of his foundational theories?? Priceless :D

Writers write, traders trade. It's really very simple.

You must not know what the word "illustrate" means :p

LOL, right over surf's head!!

Chat or steal? :D Just kidding buddy, I know you would never.

Impossible! :D

Technically, all the components of my method are freely out there, it's the combination and the rules created around that combination that is private. But, that's not to say someone else hasn't or doesn't use the same strat I do. I'm just not aware of whether anyone is.

Again, I must warn you. All this logical talk is not wanted here. :D

Can you stop being so logical? :)

Over a decade, yes.

Edited for accuracy.
