    The Stochastic Indicator

    Sorry that was humor. I posted on this two posts back this am. I think the effort to do the work to get sequences makes more money per hour invested than any other effort. It is a terrific use of time when ever you are bored looking in from the sidelines.

    If we were to offer you suggestions, what would you do? It sounds like you would not be able to consider implementing or even understand our points. You are "bridging" trends as it is now.
