Is technical analysis getting the recognition it deserves in university studies?

Yes. "Unarmed" = someone who talks even when he has nothing to say and is incapable of providing proof backing his beliefs. In this "unarmed" respect, your pacifism even makes Gandhi look like a terrorist.

Make sure you turn off the gas before taking the hot dog cart home.

I have proof. Put something up of real value as a token of your ignorance . . . something you value of value. Paid for as well, not in hock. My collateral is listed below
I have a pencil Einstein by Eugene Spiro I just had restored. Signed by Einstein himself and the artist, Eugene Spiro. I can send you the professional appraisal, $80,000.

We will have what I have independently verified . . . winner take all.

you must also understand, the professor for several years posted a "perfect" track record on his website and claimed "perfection" in trading--- therefore the 80% accurate automatic system is closer to reality than the original claims. a slight acquiescence to reality is occurring, we should applaud the progress.

LOL. A man after my own heart!!

This thread is beginning to remind me of the one about whether the market is zero sum or not. It's simply amazing the abundance of stupidity that floats across this forum.

No doubt, some are taught what to think and others how to think.

very nice. i also have an einstein--albeit, not near as impressive as yours--- more in the over sized warholian pop school, which along with the other modern art, has been relegated to the basement. i'll share a photo when i return from 54th and 5th later this evening.

with that said, why not simply dispense with the inane challenges and post your proof of the system--better yet, simply go on www.collective2.com and ignite the system there-- you can run it as a blackbox and the results will be verified. these schoolyard bully type taunts are getting old.

Hi marketsurfer,

Could you clarify your position on TA for me? (sorry if you've answered before, but I don't particularly want to read hundreds of argumentative posts between yourself and proflogic to try and find an answer)

Are you saying that it's not possible to make a profit with TA, or are you saying that it's not possible to generate enough of a return off it to beat buy and hold?

I do not think Jessica Alba is getting the recognition she deserves..

i believe that whatever value TA may hold it is as a subjective art and not a science. it cant be quantified and when tests (however dubious they may be) are applied, no edge is evident. I have many friends who are TA practioners and I am in no way stating that via intuition, money management and TA one can't make money--- but one needs to understand its subjective and wide open to interpretation regardless of what the proflogic types want you to believe. in addition, your not going to make money using TA alone for any length of time.

i hope this explains my position.

There are many traders who can disprove this statement.

Have fun at the party.

There was something about C2 the last time I checked that was a snag but will check again.
Hey, I don't start name calling. I love a good argument when the information is constuctive but lies and name calling is over the top. It's childish, immature and unnecessary.
