Quote from saliva:
Tape reading was considered important back in the ol' days only because the charts were so crappy and nearly impossible get in a timely manner. Now that they are, tape reading itself has fallen out of favor. But you know what? Tape reading is nothing other than pure price action. If you know how to properly read them prices on the chart, well, there's no need for T&S. As they say, EVERYTHING IS ALREADY PRICED IN, STUPID!
