Guys, PL has posted the link to the thread that discusses volume bars in detail and the post -- and link -- has been quoted twice. At least read the thread before asking questions. LC

I have to go with marketbarometer and bluestreek on this one. Prying open the door is only a first step, but it's practically insurmountable for most, esp if they're new at job hunting. What really matters, though, is whether or not one can do the job. But one can't show what he can do until he...

Sierra Charts also offers replay. Excellent for forward-testing. LC

To a technician, however, the "value" of a stock is whatever the buyer is willing to pay for it and the seller is willing to accept. By introducing fundamental notions of "value", you are enabling yourself to make the same errors that beginners have always made, e.g., averaging down, hanging on...

Sounds like you're very much into pattern and prediction, which would account for much of the confusion. In order to understand what's going on with a so-called "symmetrical triangle", you must understand why it forms. Price reaches a certain point, then begins making lower highs and higher...

It's not a problem with TA but with the technician. A chartist views "value" in a different way than a fundamentalist. If the trader is combining TA and FA, then he will be defining "value" in ways that likely are different from traditional TA and FA definitions. This is not, however, a...

Whether or not a "signal" is "generated" depends on the trader, what he's looking for and at, and how aggressive he is. Your arrow is the most aggressive entry: there's a potential selling climax and a buystop can be placed above those bars in the crook of the swing. Or one can buy at the first...

I wouldn't say he was missing half the picture. Rather he didn't subscribe to much of the nonsense that Hershey spouts. In any case, anyone who has any questions on the subject can simply go to t2w.com and ask him. LC

I agree about finding an older edition. These occasionally turn up on eBay. I got a fifth edition for only a few dollars. LC

If you come from a wealthy family, don't get a cash advance, sell something, i.e., personal property of some sort. Losing $300 in electronic digits isn't going to mean anything. Losing $300 that you obtained by selling something material is more likely to make an impression. Or you may decide...

You may want to look at his "It is IMPOSSIBLE to make money in the markets" thread . . . LC

"Cassette". Sounds French. Must this "cassette" you speak of be played on French equipment? LC

Sorry, but I missed your reply when it was made. Again, a "prime oscillation" is being defined as one which accompanies an ergodic which is > or < than 10? If so, your "aggressive" entry would have been "conservative" if the ergodic had moved above 10 at the same time? As for the "ultra...

Or at all. There hadn't been a higher low for a year. Why be long? LC

Thank you. And what were the steps you went through to reach the conclusion that the first "aggressive entry" was a confirming oscillation of a Prime Trend Top? (I know it seems as though you've gone through all of this many times before, but this is a particularly good example, and it can...

PL, Marketsurfer aside, I'm sure those who are trying to wrap their brains around your approach would be interested in what went through your mind when you entered the "aggressive reverses" on the ES chart you just posted, i.e., step one, step two. For example, I assume you began with your...

And ProfLogic keeps bringing the thread back to center . . . :)

Make that Never Ending Persecution and you'll be a lot closer. LC

The upgrade issue is a new one. I had been using an old version because I wasn't interested in the upgrades. And I had had problems before with an upgrade, which is why I went back to an old version in the first place. This time, though, the upgrade was forced, and there's no reason why IB...
