Interesting. How would you rank the Ocean indicators against the much-cheaper Jurik adaptive indicators? Thanks in advance.

If you follow the subthread you'll see the assertion was that Gann introduced all of TF, including MAs, to trading. Seeing as how statisticians were using MAs before Gann was born, this assertion is absurd on its face. The notion that no trader was aware of MAs before the ridiculous concept of...

How strange. I went through the timeline of probability and statistics and didn't find the name "Gann" anywhere, especially as the progenitor of moving averages. In fact statisticians don't speak of Gann at all. :D

Sorry but this is delusional. MAs have nothing to do with angles.

You've yet to show how all of trend following flows from Gann, so I'll just let it go at that. :D

Somebody put it in print back in 1837. Whether or not that person was Ricardo is irrelevant, because it sure as hell wasn't Gann. My TF is based primarily on MAs. You're not claiming Gann invented MAs, are you?

That's hilarious. All successful trading is based on trend following. You buy because you expect the price to rise (uptrend). You sell because you expect the price to fall (downtrend). Somehow people figured this out long before Gann came on the scene. :D "Cut your losses (short) and let...

Man, it's incredible the nonsense people buy into. Astrology, mystic cycles, magic squares. The bottom line is this: If Gann, who spent over 50 years as a trader and "guru", wasn't a multi-millionaire when he died, it's all a load of crap.

Screw levels. Levels get broken through all the time. Trying to trade levels is trying to predict the future. Good luck. Instead, learn to trade the trend. If the price is going up, you want to own it. If the price is falling, you want to sell it, and maybe short-sell it as well. So your...

To the OP: While I agree that those who say the RSI is lagging (or all indicators are lagging) are simply dead wrong (you don't get meaningful divergences with lagging indicators), I find the RSI itself to be a klunky indicator that is a poor substitute for better, more direct measurements of...

Worse, this is like trying to guess the face of a man based only on his fingerprints and footprints. This is cargo cultism, pure and simple. For some reason, some people think "reverse engineering" is much easier and simpler than engineering the original desirable thing. Reverse engineering...

http://scienceblogs.com/deltoid/2010/03/the_empirical_evidence_for_man.php A question for you: why are people like you utterly incapable of doing simple google searches and finding this stuff yourself? It's not at all hard to find, but somehow the task is outside your skillset. Amazing.

"Seems to'? WTF does that mean? You've been presented with evidence time and again, in this thread and others. You willfully ignore it, so what's the point? Good-bye.

New Rule: Al Gore must come out with a sequel to his movie about climate change and call it An Inconvenient Truth 2: What the Fuck Is Wrong with You People? by Bill Maher Friday, 4 June 2010 A bunch of depressing new surveys reveal that people in droves are starting to believe that global...

Why would warming cause CO2 accumulation? You minimize the obvious cause of CO2 accumulation (human industry) while clinging at some ridiculous straw of "the sun done it." http://www.skepticalscience.com/global-warming-other-planets-solar-system.htm The sun ain't doing shit, we are. Deal...

Obviously not. Your lack of evidence is underwhelming. MY point is that you are dedicated to refusing to get the point, by pointedly ignoring the FACTS. It is the right-wing ideologue's stock in trade to willfully ignore the truth and cling to lies and distortions that "support" your real...

Your petition project is the real bullshit, and a bad joke as well. WTF do I care what some AGW-denying zoologist has to say about global warming? He knows no more about the subject than the average housewife. If I have chest pains, I don't go to a dermatologist, I go to a cardiologist...

Define what you mean by "credible evidence" so we don't waste time playing the rightwing bait-and-switch game. That gets old real fast. EDIT: dcraig has covered this very well. If you still don't understand, you have some homework to do.

The climate data has been shown and summarily dismissed by those who don't want to believe it. I get what the oil companies get out of dismissal, I don't get what the Joe-the-Plumber types get out of putting their heads in the sand and pretending like nothing bad could possibly be happening...

I'm pretty sure she sees her future as the female Rush Limbaugh: make lots of $$$ jawboning about politics while sitting safely on the sidelines.
