Quote from Arthur Deco:
I have benefitted, if only marginally, by advice I received from ET members, usually privately. Let us suppose that you start your diseducation with a book like Achelis' "Technical Analysis from A to Z," an excellent book IMO, very inclusive and comprehensive. But how much of it is dross and how much gold? I have exactly four elements in my charting that got there because ETer's told me they believed in them and used them:
a moderately slow intraday EMA
fibs
the premium
testing the HOD and the LOD.
I don't have any systems built around them, and not for any lack of trying. But I do find them informative in creating a mental gestalt of the nature of the day.

Ah, yes, I will be there. But only if you and RT come. Just look for a shrivelled up smelly old prune with a glass of cheap champagne in each hand and two refills set up on the table.
What works intraday? That is an IQ test. I cannot trade range bound days, although some people here insist that there are signs and portents. I think they're lieing. Call me simple, but I think the only thing that works is riding the big kahuna. There ARE signs and portents for those. The only problem is that you have to be willing to sustain small losses for one to two weeks to catch the wave. And you have to learn how not to wipe out.

I'll plan on it if my car will let me go downtown. I'm slowly coming to the same conclusion about riding the big kahuna. RT=Redneck Trader?
