You still never answered if you ever had a consistent method using TA when you were a "true believer".

7 years away from daytrading and you're still an expert, LOL

I never said that 99% boil down to the same old stuff. In fact, I implied the opposite.

Every new permutation? As brother black would say....NO WAY JOSE! LOL

The odds are stacked again ANYONE who trades by the rules (ie no insider trading). Regardless of method.

Surfer, you have not tested everything. It's probably not possible to do so. You've only scratched the surface. Regards, RR

Yes sir, busted indeed :D But seriously, do you see what you did there? You definitively spoke about something that you just admitted to not really knowing all that well. This is my whole issue with definitive speakers like marketsurfer. Proclaiming something is crap that they haven't fully...

Really? http://www.amazon.com/The-Traders-Guide-Technical-Analysis/dp/0071359796 "The Day Trader's Guide to Technical Analysis: How to Use Chart Patterns, Level II and Time of Sales to Profit in Electronic Markets " Just used google, it took 4 seconds

Well, as I'm sure you know, one trade does not a consistent method make. You didn't answer the question about whether your method was consistent using TA over a substantial amount of time or not. I'll take it your method wasn't. I didn't "believe" in TA until I had a year of consistent...

LOL vs lol? I'm pretty sure IF a mod determined that multiple people in different locations were all posting as "Jack Hershey" it might be the biggest news to hit ET in quite awhile :D

And what would be the point of all of this? And couldn't mods determine if the user name is logging in to the same or different IP addresses?

Professional traders, trade. Hobbyists dabble and some even tell professional's what is or isn't possible. You just gotta smile and keep doing what you do. :)

Trends don't end on low volume.

I've had this same argument for a few years with these types of guys.

LOL. Random entries.....man I must be the luckiest SOB alive to have utilized charts each day, used my TA each day, and been able to trade full time since '98. Man, I hope this luck doesn't run out :(

Is this the act of securing people's time and money around ones waist? :D Just kidding....carry on
