Questions to Jack Hershey

Quote from RedDuke:

Dude,

Unless you being sarcastic (use of similes helps), you are a bit paranoid. It is a publicly listed method, and I have no interest in collecting all the rules/nuances, but willing to code to prove its validity.

That is very generous. Before I figured out how to code the PinkyBlue, I would have jumped at the chance to have someone else do the work of grinding out the code as Pinky and the Brain were plotting to rule the world.... :D

There certainly must be plenty who are newer to the JH method who will shortly be chiming in with ardent alacrity to delineate the wherefores and whatofs they have thus far gleaned from the fractal firmament of fecundity. :D

Wait... I think I hear the stampede of them now! :D
 
Here is an excellent article! Excellent because it does NOT contain the question, "Does your guru want TO RULE THE WORLD?" :D

So Pinky and the Brain are both definitely NOT presenting themselves as gurus. At a score of 0, they are more like Mother Theresa... :D

However, because of their modesty, we know them merely as, Pinky and the Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain.... :D

So cool.

Probably one of the best demonstrations of smart money leading the herd.

This certainly illustrates how elegant it is to use a tool to be able to carve price by taking partial fills of the herd's chicken feed positions.

Knowing how to build walls around inference that is associated with any myths or false beliefs.

Imaginig waterfall is a good meditation.

Give him a break. The party is over. What else do you want? Either you get it or you don't. Keep in mind that some remain as myth or proprietary or camouflaged from your view.

Make money.
 
What happened to the thread "Trading is EASY!" started by MarketWizard? It seems to have been accidentally erased!

Anyway, there were people who asked about seeing a trend, so I posted a pic, but JH said it was a poor example, (I had an uptrend followed by a downtrend). He said the second (trend) diminished, but there was nothing that I could see indicative of that, so I asked him to explain. Then the overnight before Good Fri happened.

So I just asked him to explain what he meant when the said the second trend (the downtrend) "diminished".

Because, Enquiring minds want to know... :D
