Slacker....YOU are in luck. Such an idea has been proposed and is in the process of becoming a reality. Great timing with your post :)

Surf, check out this post. You, JH AND NoDoji all grouped together :D http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3865239#post3865239

Same subject, just stating that people in glass houses shouldn't thrown stones, Rod. If you are going to call people trolls and non value adds, the LEAST you can do is tell us how YOU provide value.

First explain what value you add? You come here to cheer lead, call people basement trolls and then vanish. Hardly a value add, Rod. Let's talk trading, Rod. What vehicle(s) do you trade? Since you clearly aren't a TA guy, what is your approach?

Uhhh, The Road Not Taken is a classic and a metaphor for the discussion we were having. Try and keep up, Rod. http://www.bartleby.com/119/1.html

I can assure you that is from a Robert Frost poem. :)

This is spot on.

Ok, well I decided to go a different direction. I used my own eyes and my own brain to see what works and what doesn't (or didn't for me). I saw correlations that I eventually could objectively quantify. No easy task but here I am. "I shall be telling this with a sigh, somewhere ages and ages...

I don't want you to vanish altogether. I've never said that. Although it would be nice if there were a few threads here where real traders could discuss things without the malcontents dropping in. And, I don't think you are a simpleton, I think you are severely damaged by your experiences in...

Wow, that sounds like information overload! Keep it simple is what I say. Luckily I only needed retail data (paid data, not the free shit your broker gives you) to create a robust strat. Others may need more. To each his own I guess.

Disturbed by your questioning? Hardly, it's more like tired of hearing the same broken record played by the same bitter trader. Your questions are hardly challenging and your reasons are generally just blanket statements revealing that you haven't done much research on your own. No one said TA...

Agreed. But....does anyone actually look at it to determine whether they will click on the thread? Personally, I don't.

Once a person has a working system with enough data to verify its validity, they don't care what academics and researchers who have only tested a very limited range of inputs have to say on the matter. The people you butt heads with constantly seem to be in this group of people (working system)...

Just look at the company he keeps; Rodney King only shows up to post days which Surf's positions are up and hides from this thread when those same positions are down. The poor noobs who Surf usually tries to protect from the evils of TA he apparently couldn't care less about when it comes...

You decided to only look up "most" and not all of his trades? Strange way of drawing conclusions :D

Did you mean "through" and "site"? P.S I was speaking to Rod, not Surf.

I'm actually focused on you, Rod. Cheer leading when stocks are up and "disappearing" when they are gone is a very misleading tactic. Where's the consistency? What about integrity?

Rod's internet must be down. But carrying on with his recent tradition: OVTI $17.52 Down 0.86 (4.65%) 3:57PM EDT - Nasdaq Real Time Price Bxxx $4.91 Down 0.27 (5.23%) 3:58PM EDT - Nasdaq Real Time Price Combined down 9.88% (Aug 27th, 2013)

He doesn't believe in trends, past price is meaningless to him (not judging, just saying).

I disagree with the second part. There may be "other" ways to make money without using price charts but price charts (ie past price stats) can definitely be used to create a successful system. It's not easy, though. Nothing worth anything ever is.
