That doesn't mean TA cant aid and highlight one of the most magnificent functions of the brain.. and one of the most important for trading.. can anyone guess?..Quote from maxpi:
Well, ya, a guy got a nobel prize for proving that price cannot predict price... I can't recall his name offhand actually, if somebody can supply same I would like to read his papers...
pattern recognition

Quote from rcanfiel:
...Frankly I don't give a rat's ass about attention. But you are one of the most vitriolic, multisyllable dropping, name-calling cusses I have seen here...
Quote from rcanfiel:
...I imagine you looking at your lexicon to extract multisyllabic semantics, the majority of which I remain suspicious that your reach exceeds your grasp. In conclusion when frenetically stringing similars together, kindly tip the temporal lobe of your apparently limited cranium, with the resultant motion of thermogenic, crystalline silicates groundwards towards the opposing side (ie, You appear to be thumbing through your dictionary to pick words that you falsely think give you an air of knowledge; In future attempts, will you kindly tip your head and let the hot sand run to the other side)
Quote from rcanfiel:
... I was afraid you wouldn't grasp it, so thus the simpler form in parentheses. Since my master's thesis was based in linguistics, I know it was quite well-formed...
Quote from rcanfiel:
...If someone can outdo a last measured IQ of 158 and an MSCS, I would be...
*Sigh*Quote from rcanfiel:
Stop looking in the mirror...
The mind boggles.
is this thread of any use to anyone ?
Since thunderpooch has decided to perform a clipping service to make people look bad, we'll return the favor:
Numerous Quotes from Thunderdog:
Excuse me? Do you think I am looking to learn here?
Forgive me, and kindly permit me this observation: you have come across as entirely oblivious to the salient issues of the exchange you are referring to. Coupled with your dismissive arrogance, you present yourself as an asshole.
Do I come across as though I know everything? Hardly. I'm the first to admit when I'm wrong. However, I have contempt for those who exhibit both ignorance and arrogance. It is you who claims to know everything with your blanket pronouncements, not I. And as for your nonsensical diatribe that followed, it only confirms my initial assessment of you: asshole.
⦠has a Pez dispenser loaded with $2 words. If you keep it up he's liable to compose a diatribe against you, too. But try not to take it personally since he doesn't make it a habit of actually reading the posts that he quotes and responds to.
(Oops, sorry. Being the master of linguini that he is
... Aside from being an asshole and a wanker, of course.)
I propose that we merely modify the thread title. Rather than the current and controversial "Technical Analysis Doesn't Work," let us consider the much more valid and specific "Technical Analysis Doesn't Work for rcanfiel and marketsurfer." ⦠And if there are others here who agree with the views shared by rcanfiel and marketsurfer, why, I'm quite sure that we can all agree to add "et al" to the modified thread title and accommodate them as well. And there you have it - problem solved. It's all just a matter of phrasing, really. Refreshments, anyone?
Oh, how the "masses," those great unwashed, do not fall prone at the feet of your vast intellect. Forgive them, for they know not their folly. (And imagine! He has a master's degree!) How you manage to remain composed while suffering the indignity of not getting the recognition that you so rightfully deserve is truly an exercise in character building and beyond my limited comprehension. Oh, the humanity.
...an attention-seeking, bloated-ego asshole. And who are we to deny him the attention candy that he craves?
...?
Just curious. Do you actually read what you post, or is it more of an "intuitive, gut feel" kind of thing?
Really? Why? because he's intellectually dishonest, or because he intentionally obfuscates?
ET is littered with his weasel droppings.
You're quite the performance artist.
Really? There is no implication here? Such as your many references to JWH's recent drawdowns in another thread with JWH's name in the title and you as its author? To which your earlier post most assuredly alluded? You are such a pompous, disingenuous and obfuscating jackass that I cannot imagine why anyone wastes time in any exchanges with you. Welcome to ignore, marketsurfer. Enjoy your stay.
Um...your ill-chosen reference to JWH's performance? At least read your own posts.
Oh, are we talking about performance again? Then let's discuss yours.
Once the market moves, it's too late? So now you know both my entry points and my time frame of reference? Divine intervention? How can you be so sweeping in your comments? You have absolutely no idea where I look to either enter or exit, and yet you speak for yourself, me and everyone else here. Is this an attention thing again? Forgive me, but your performance does not suggest the kind of credentials required to make such grand statements. However, I do detect an indeterminate weight on your shoulder. A chip, perhaps?
Let me be clear: I intensely dislike your across the board generalizations.
Sorry, but yours was a very glib analogy.
Clearly, then, you don't exist.
Hot tempers...it's a global warming thing.
I have both read and heard some hype about oolong tea, which reportedly increases metabolism (to facilitate weight loss) and supresses appetite. Is there any substance to these claims?
My guess is that once you start using gann software your money will be...gann. And that's no fib.
