Oh! So you are an indiscretionary system trader like me! I have a very rigid coded system that calls maybe 6-8 trades a day, and probably has negative expectation (I'm afraid to test it). But it usually calls a couple of great trades, so I use my gestalt of the market to decide which calls to...

Lest you wonder why I am wasting my time here, I made my money in one trade this AM, so I am watching the market with perfect equani-Mitty (lots of Walters here) and enjoying the ratcheting. And the dicking with system traders.

Oh. It's an epic pome. Gilgamesh and Enkidu. Achilles and Paris. Tom and Jerry.

Thunderdog, I forget, are you trading discretionary or system? 225, tell us more. Does it morph into a wet dream? That's where all mine end up.

Thunderdog and 225, it always seems to come back to the issue of guru worship for you. Which sticks in my craw, too. If we had a debate going, I would contrast the uncertainty I suspect the SCT crowd felt in today's morning action , with consequent whipsaws, versus the calm near certainty system...

It's a pity the A-Team wouldn't play, because the heart of SCT raises many issues relative to classical TA. I was going to type a sentence with the word paradoxical in it, then my insane mind made a pun, so now I will be offering soon to ET frozen paradoxcicles made from SCT koolaid.

AM1, I am highly offended! I am a greeter at Wal-Mart!

AM1, trade well, my bastard son. The misfortunate necessity to work for a living takes me away from ET for a few weeks. When I return, I shall look you up, and get you to re-educate your old dad.

Spydie, if you had as many people in your head as I do, you would know that I am well aware of the possibilites the market offers. In a few years Jack, bless his black little heart, will have exhausted his SCT schtick, and I will reveal to an astonished ET what I have been up to. I shall be...

Jem, I am an old man, been using that gag for years. First time was some poor kid 25 years ago in National Airport who looked just like me. I asked HIM that question and then walked away from his stunned silence. Probably ruint his life.

Hi, Spydie. One day we shall have a public trading contest. I just have to get it to be on a day when my CO system does as well as SCT advertises it does, which would be on a wide range day. And work my way up to the number of cars that will make you choke. Welcome back, BTW. The cats need to be...

AM1, you are insufferably arrogant. What was your mother's maiden name? I may have known her. Thank you for your kind offer of assistance, but I get all the help I need from the many voices in my head. It is a pity that the challenge was not accepted. With you as internal moderator it might...

Thank you all for posting your opinions, and I apologize for taking your time with a poor idea. Best regards to all.

Those times look like MT.

Smart ass! You could have said CT so I didn't have to look it up. Trade analysis follows.

Time zone, please?

Thank you Thunderdog. I haven't been turned down so graciously since I asked the head cheerleader to go to the prom and she declined in favor of the captain of the football team. But it doesn't appear that we will be having a debate. I totally sympathize with the need for market focus during...

Well, there you have it, profanity is officially sanctioned and we shall mention the issue no more. But let me remind you that SCT cannot hide behind the official sanctioning which our beloved Magna has bestowed on it by his draconian moderation, permitting not even the gentlest chiding...

I agree completely, Fearless, but I wonder how many people took the last two charts seriously. Did Joe just draw those green lines as a plausible fraud, or is the code good? A gentle reminder that on ET, humor often is unintentional, and credible systems often accidental.
