The point that I get out of the baseball analogy is that the behavior of price, at certain times, has characteristic's similar to the "the ball connecting with a sweet pitch". If I show you a picture of a baseball in the air (approx. 20 feet above the ground) with no other info would you be...

Ammo, where did I say anything about that someone is a guru or mention the words holy grail?

Where's her website?

Hey blotto, she back for more, I handle this one buddy. Heh, heh, heh! There is something I wanted to say to you for along time Nodoji, you done nothing but post charts with detailed posts about how you trade, answered countless questions, apparently a lot of behind the scenes help, I am sure...
