Thank you for your comments Jack, and for your underwhelming endorsement of "Mark Brown". I am not in the habit of devoting time to every new poster here of dubious provenance. And I repeat, do you assert that SCT is applicable to any instrument with "sufficient" liquidity? I am hard pressed to...

Nkhoi, I was merely attempting to determine the bona fides of Jack's technical reference, who is new to me. Specifically, is he of the inner circle? An im-poster (an alias of a previous poster, we aren't allowing that, you know)? En bref, why should I care that Jack posted his spreadsheet?

Doli, maybe you should repeat them. My intention is to provide my own operational definition of trend trading.

Jack, I am missing something, is "Mark Brown" an A-Teamer?

Jack, thanks, an interesting compilation. I disagree with your definition of trend trading, but now is not the time, that is lower down in my objections. Now that you are here, did I incorrectly cite a claim that SCT is applicable to any instrument with sufficient liquidity, as opposed to...

Doli, thank you for responding seriously. Comparing/contrasting SCT with trend trading was on my agenda. And I, too, would like to hear SCT adherents recite their catechisms in plain English.

Bearbelly, perhaps I am wrong. Kindly ask le maitre to clarify. You may dispense with my first objection in one swell foop. But I have plenty more.

Spydertrader, what do you want me to say? What you call sock puppets are multiple independent personalities with such differing perspectives that only multiple aliases can accomodate them. But I am willing to dispense with aliases for this thread. However I will spare SCT no classic irony. And...

Much as I enjoy a good mud fight, it is time to stop ad hominem attacks and cite specific perceived deficiencies of the method. One benefit of rational dissent, as I have found many times with Jack's adherents, is that they are willing to be drawn into serious discussions if they don't have to...

The boss had me install a 22-inch LCD monitor today, a real beaut'. Said with the old one he couldn't read all 26 studies in the 5 panes he had me code up. (Don't look at ME, I use just price and volume). Which made me think of a (hopefully newly enunciated) delusion: The bigger your monitor...

Ammo, no, ony old wise asses here. I only use just one computer because I trade on the road a lot and wouldn't want to need two. However, I always have two broadband connections, which I have learned the hard way is a necessity everywhere. It is really sweaty when your connection goes down while...

Interesting problems with the ES move predictor today. In real time the code showed six events in the AM. But after a feed crash and reconnection, only two reappeared. Problem with the DJX bars, I think. And of course, charts after the fact often look different from those in real time...

Tums - Harry is a provocateur. A casual, but painful, review of his posts suggests that he does not wish to offer us anything concrete. He can rag on me all he wants. I am an engineer with no personality whatever. But it would be nice if he could insult me more cleverly. "Nyah! Nyah!" doesn't...

Thanks! Here is where the energy REALLY goes. Where "clueless" puts his REAL trading wisdom. (Detail deliberately obscured.) Whereas Jack wants your heart and mind, we just want your funny bone. And, if you trade NQ with limit orders, your money. Sycophants need not apply.

Opie, I am NOT patient, kind and gentle like Spydie. I am a prick like Jack. But I'll try to fake it. First of all, the analysis is a JOKE. There is no fucking way that YM leads ES. But as usual, when I go ratting down one of Jack's ratholes I come back with something useful, if not particulary...

The day that NOBODY looks at these I'll quit posting them. Is that motivation enough? Six anomalous events (Jack so HATES the word anomaly). Four were weakly predictive, one was spectacularly strongly predictive. If this turns out to be valid, I hope my publishing it fucks it up for the...

My, my! People on ET do so love to waste their time reading something they already know is nonsense! There were 15 divergences today, 8 of them correct, 2 quite strikingly so. I think it those satisfyingly rare events that the faithful remember and cherish, all the other disappointing second...

Well, I am careful to examine everything Pope Jacques says (I am less reverential about his cardinals), because what he believes is no less bizarre than what I believe. I just keep my mouth shut about my delusions. But I cannot help but believe that I am right about some things and he is dead...

Those charts are a poor boy attempt to debunk Mr. Hershey's contention that YM leads ES. As I do not have a CBOT subscription, and it is not worth buying it for a month just to rag on Jack, I chose to examine the assertion using DJX and SPX as surrogates. My experience measuring instantaneous...

Today, a divergence of $DJX relative to $SPX correctly forecast a congruent move in $SPX six out of eight times. Even a blind hog....
