    Do Trendlines work?

    ive traded for an awfully long time, and ive moderated about 15 boards and presently do so now, but I HAVE NEVER seen the animosity shown each other or outsiders as i have here at Elite --- a trend line is sure as heck not worth what im seeing here, and if they work or not doesnt amount to much...

    Do Trendlines work?

    ========================================= LOL -- NO, i would never try to convert someone who does not wish to be converted --- its an impossibility because no matter what one may show, the skeptic remains convinced of their side -- just human nature I guess. Ive been very happy over...

    Do Trendlines work?

    ==================================== as is said by "them" -- "if you want an arguement you had better change the subject !" its an absolute joy to watch the price move under the support trendline, pause and then come back up, as it does with pivots, s+r and all the other "lines" that work...
