    Why the controversy? Jack Hershey SCT vs Arthur Deco TDT

    MBS is not rcanfiel. Emil Kraepelin interviewed him. Rcanfiel had a totally different linguistic style. You can check the thread. JJ HAS no style.

    Why the controversy? Jack Hershey SCT vs Arthur Deco TDT

    No, but you risk rotting your mind reading trash like this. Dig a little deeper and you might recognize that what Jack views as channels is driven solely by variations in the time it takes to bounce between classical S & R. It all depends on how fast THEY think they can take your money without...

    Why the controversy? Jack Hershey SCT vs Arthur Deco TDT

    You are too kind, Hughb. I cannot bring myself sober to bash Jack QUITE as badly as others do. Mostly because I played Alice to his Lewis Carroll and chased snarks and boojums down many a rabbit hole. But getting lost in his mirrored puzzle palace I discovered some original TA, mostly from...

    Senior Concentration Trading

    Shut up, Doaks! It's cold thin porridge for you tonight! Sevenfirs, can you tell me why, of all 156 horizontal lines on my chart, you chose to put your second short at only one? Sheer chance, one supp-hoses. Means nothing. Nemmind.

    Senior Concentration Trading

    In the present downturn in the markets, I predict that one class of trader will survive and prosper: the geriatric set. Why? For three reasons. First, they have been trading so long that to stop trading is to invite death. They live to trade, not trade to live. Second, they have more money left...

    Extensions to SCT

    Another example of the potential benefit to SCT traders of being able to predict the approximate close. Those who think this is derived using mean regression are merely regressively mean. This method provides some analytical basis for the temptation to anticipate a brief sharp move in the trend...

    Extensions to SCT

    Maitre Jacques is an idiot savant. He knoweth not why SCT worketh. I am Homer to his Menelaus. Boswell to his Johnson. Bandler (or Grinder) to his Erickson. The great tragedy for us both is that his ego is only matched by my own. Else SCT should long since have been explained to the mewling...

    Extensions to SCT

    Not to believe. The sin of pride. I play the Palestrina and flog myself.

    Extensions to SCT

    It occurs to me that SCT traders, papertrading geniuses though they all obviously are, might want to know what the day's close will be. See the attached. If you think this is a joke, then it is on you. Why am I sharing this? Because I have gotten religion, Mea Culpa: Confíteor Jack...

    Trading Without SCT

    Oh, it's worse than serious. We are in some danger that our shrink (the prick charges each one of us separately) will reintegrate us into a "whole" personality. I think we will be immeasurably shrunken, like a cannibal shrinks the head after removing the skull. But here is my version of...

    The New Psychology of Trading

    Odd that you all should mention that. I started trading one minute so I could get inside those opaque five minute bars. And to get out of the absurd pattern of forecasting the volume at the end of the bar? I mean, why? When you can see it forming in real time. I have recently also added a...

    Teach Me Not to Trade

    So with these principles in mind, how does one distinguish a phony from the real deal on ET? By an unambiguous indicator of the trade call in the poster's charts. By binary decision rules, no matter how numerous, with stated numerical threshold criteria and stated numerical weighting criteria...

    NQ,YM vs ES

    I have to pay for sex. But NQ loves my attention so much that it pays ME.

    NQ,YM vs ES

    Agreed. I sense in NQ rhythms and intonations in multiple time frames which draw my brain and my body into sympathetic harmonies. I would rather trade NQ than have sex. I have quantified these mental perceptions into physical colors and sounds and harmonic levels of such ineffability and...

    The Coffee Break Trader

    In my professional role as a CTA (Contradictory Technical Analyst), I often meet mid-level managers and engineering specialists who wish that they could trade like ET all-stars do. They dream of catching the HOD or LOD and riding it like a surfer all day, or more excitingly, of rapid-fire...

    The Heuristic Value of Studying SCT

    I never got to say my piece. Guess I don't get no respect around here because I work the graveyard shift. I love to watch THEM make money out of thin air on virtually no volume overnight. Traders ended the day net short? No problem! Cost me maybe 500 cars to make them puke their position back at...

    Interviews With Legendary NQ Traders

    The ability to deconflict my systems when they give contrary signals. If I had that skill, I could get rich by teaching it to the Jackers and quit beating my head against the wall trading. Gotta go. One of my bandages slipped. Later. Maybe. Asshole! What do you think? I'm going to tell you how I...

    Interviews With Legendary NQ Traders

    I waste way too much fucking time trying over and over again to prove that SCT works. I figure it must be me, not the system. Very frustrating.

    Extraordinary Popular Delusions & the Madness of ET

    You are such a snot, Joe. And an idiot to boot. I coded up the same thing (not so hard as you make out, dummy) and made a remarkable discovery. It's such a bad predictor that it's contrary! Joe, SPX leads DJX!
