    Objections to SCT

    I don't have Excel, and don't know how to use it if I did. Data from a disinterested, verifiable source is also in order. Are people willing to stipulate that the defintions of trend and channel at stockcharts.com are correct?

    Objections to SCT

    Excellent idea. The SCT advocates are inclined to say, "go read," or "you haven't read," and even "you can't read." What I would like to see is whether any of them can state what the Hershey Method is in their own words, i.e., can they paraphrase what they think they've read? Another...

    POLL for traders who trade the Jack Hershey method(s) in real time with real money

    Your opinion concerning my reading ability may differ from mine, stereo. Are you sure that you "read" the material? Could it be the case that some people "read" some poorly organized material, then simply project their own ideas into it, thinking that they understand? Could Hershey's...

    POLL for traders who trade the Jack Hershey method(s) in real time with real money

    Jack mentions "compare and contrast." Why doesn't he do that for Hershey Method vs. Channel Trading and Hershey Method vs. Trend Trading? As far as I can tell, Hershey Method is some complicated form of channel trading. Channel trading is well known, so why did Hershey think he needed to "add...

    POLL for traders who trade the Jack Hershey method(s) in real time with real money

    Sure ... What I am looking for is a clear explanation of the method. Doesn't "iterative refinement" come later?

    POLL for traders who trade the Jack Hershey method(s) in real time with real money

    Did you actually find the "material" readable, in the sense that it was coherent?

    POLL for traders who trade the Jack Hershey method(s) in real time with real money

    Why is that? Why should channel trading be so complex and require so much training? Hasn't channel trading existed for a long time?

    You guys think Dragon 9 is alright? What about capital extraction? Is that like a mining operation?

    Trading bot construction (IB)

    I haven't changed much since I posted the '.zip' file here on ET -- just disconnect(), I think. When I get the events working, I'll upload something new.

    Trading bot construction (IB)

    Events aren't all of the same type, so simple 'todo' and 'done' queues won't work. What I'm thinking of doing is "new"ing an event each time a callback is reached, filling it out, then putting it on the 'todo' queue. As events are processed, it will be up to the garbage collector to recycle...

    Here is a short test of Java's BlockingQueue: import java.util.concurrent.*; class Worker extends Thread { BlockingQueue<Object> done, todo; Worker(BlockingQueue<Object> todo, BlockingQueue<Object> done) { this.done = done; this.todo = todo; }...

    Trading bot construction (IB)

    In RandomTime, there is some time comparison functionality that, when used, may read something like: if (isLaterThan(t0, t1)) ; but might read better: if (t0.isLaterThan(t1)) ; Also, an oversight: there are two points in RandomBot...
