    Shame you've given up teaching Prof, based on the HARD EVIDENCE you've shown me in other threads I'd sign up to learn your methods.

    Goldboy, now I know you're talking out of the top of your head, cycles actually are naturally occurring everywhere, including the market, they are relatively easy to read and see if you know what to look for. And what's more cycle peaks and troughs are predictable before they occur with...

    Narrow range but with disproportionately large volume (usually near the bottom/top of a channel) = accumulation/distribution, buying/selling = gearing up for a move, maybe? Is that what he's getting at with the references to "the generals?"

    I wouldn't trust your calls as far as I could spit. Maybe where I have said predict, I should have said, "predict with 100% accuracy" not surprising tho' that you've taken my quotes then read and used them out of context. And yeah maybe you shouldn't interrupt any further, I'm not sure...

    No no no, you're changing your tune now vicar, now you've an expectation of potential developments that may invalidate your analysis. SO WHICH IS IT? And make your mind up in future before you start accusing people of talking rubbish.

    Mr High & Mighty has found the "Holy Grail" then clearly (biblical quotes n'all). He can't envisage any circumstance in which his analysis could be fallible. What a load of old **** ****

    Notice the CAPITALIZATION of the word potential? "resigning yourself to the inevitability of making incorrect decisions is not the answer..." I propose that what you're saying is UTTER RUBBISH and promotes a very dangerous attitude that is highly likely to result in the obliteration of...

    Goldboy, I will hold my hands up and say that there is a smidgen of truth in what you say with regard to institutional traders deceiving and manipulating price. However, not all exchange traded instruments are being manipulated at all times on all time frames. Indeed if there is price...

    Money management and an edge, I don't need to be right all the time and I won't be, that's trading. It takes a certain level of mental discipline to use TA effectively and admittedly if you lack that discipline then it won't work for you.

    You are desperately picking up on isolated sentences and snippets to try and prove your point. Don't you get it? Why would anyone take a trade based solely on a pattern? That's just one reason technical traders use indicators, to measure other variables to support the probability or not of...

    If you think like a pro, then it doesn't matter that you're wrong because you've accepted and controled your risk BEFORE you've put the trade on.

    Agree with whoever said, you cannot predict the whims of large institutional players. That's why we use money management and adhere to stops. You can often see what they're up to, eg. a retrace that may look like h&s (I don't like h&s for this very reason) that ends up being an ABC...

    TE, you're talking about volatility cycles, maybe I'm missing the point of this, but would most not consider that to be A FORM of TA?

    TA is very visually orientated and the pertinent information on your chart should be immediately obvious to you at first glance, this comes with practice. Someone earlier made a comment about moving through phases of competence. Subconsciously incompetent Consciously incompetent...

    All I'm saying Mark, is that if people weren't to feel personally threatened by a conceptual statement then maybe it wouldn't have been killed off in the very first post. And what is really finishing it off and stamping repeatedly on it's metaphorical head are all the snide little comments...

    As for those now complaining about the number of posts in this thread (god only knows what you'll start complaining about next), well why don't YOU ***k off then? I would say start making constructive as opposed to destructive posts, but you're not capable. All your childish little nonsense...

    yeah, yeah TE, brain & eyes, please try and avoid being too cryptic, it does tend to wind people up. Here's another "thing:" analysis vs. Execution ps. Just ignore the divs forever trying to provoke an emotional response.
