Quote from MandelbrotSet:

Oh please Anekedoten.

You went through a ton of indicators on your thread (same as every other trader) starting with:

1) Bollinger Bands
2) Stochastics
3) Fib Retracements
4) You also have a chart up with what looks like a MACD or CCI Histgoram (yep folks, it's a MACD Histogram)
5) Hull Moving Average

As your knowledge base evolved you moved on to:

6) Heikin Ashi Bars (if you think they aren't a derivative indicator, you're kidding yourself)
7) an Indicator that shows the Swing Highs/Swing Lows (NinjaTrader has the same exact indicator, for anyone who's interested)
8) Momentum Indicator
9) Slow Stochastic
10) Unique charts settings such as: tick bars, volume bars, second bars (yep folks believe it or not these are another indicator)

The list goes on but I don't want to.

The fact of the matter is, while you have a unique talent for chart reading and a strong desire to be part of a group setting, as well as a willingness to help other traders (all good things); you can also come off as just a little arrogant with such blanket statements as "Indicators are for the handicapped" or some such thing, especially when you have left an indelible record showing your evolution as a trader as you moved through every indicator in the book!

LOL man, AustinP was dead on target with you, your response of insisting that you've been a pure price action trader and then challenging him to a trading competition is way too much like the old, pre-AHG Anekedoten, and I believe everyone here on this thread would prefer interacting with the new one.

If that's who you want to be and how you want to come off, that's fine, just don't pretend that you've changed when you haven't.

Good trading to everyone,

Jimmy Jam

All these fake internet paper traders like regal trade without stops. That way, they can just hold the position until they are up, with no risk that they are inadvertently knocked out by a stop. Of course, no real trader would use a strategy of that type.

Likewise, he uses the SPX as his trading vehicle....eventhough you can't directly trade SPX. Lots of free services give quotes on SPX....but not on ES. LOL. My guess is he doesn't have a futures account.

anek and jj .youve both been around awhile,so what,let's leave this thread to b1s2 and keep the pecker in the trousers,the vast majority of readers,lurkers ,or by any other definition dont give 2 shots about either of your ego's,the old bull and the young bull joke,they are just 2 bulls in a joke, it has nothing to do with the market,you guys should hook up with the gals at the laundromat who have plenty of time to kill while the dryers are running and sort this out in private
 
Anek may have a poor attitude and a big ego but I 100% agree with his view on indicators. In the end, EVERY INDICATOR IS A DERIVATIVE OF PRICE. Why do you want to use the derivative when you can use the real thing?

Jesus JJ, do you have a dossier on everyone on ET.

You must have developed some superior search feature to compile that information.

I'd like to nominate you to Barron for a Moderatorship. :D

LOL BB, you and I both know all that info is in Anekedoten's rather incredible journal ... the most important part of it is how it shows the evolution of a trader. :)
