Marketsuffer doesn't trifle with such pedestrian nonsense. As you know, he has recently joined the "Men of Science" brigade, and is marching on the road to glory, alongside his beloved General and spiritual advisor, VN.Quote from JSSPMK:
Here is an ironic observation, if Surf WAS to pay attention to TA, then he would have a lot better entries with a lot smaller DDs. His entries seem to be quite appalling, sorry Surf, but that's my POV as of now. I do wish you all the best though

Less is more... If you don't believe me, ask the Charmin Bear.

Very true. As with a trend, we don't see the peak (or trough) until after it has occurred. But I was bored, and just doing my part to get surf's Report to the 1,000-page mark. I give and I give...
That said, it does appear that my work here is done for the time being.
P.S. Charming analogy. And perhaps more appropriate than you may have anticipated, seeing as how my posts represent the cleansing tissue in the analogous scheme of things...Might your chosen analogy have been a Freudian slip of sorts?
Here's less is more ..only thing that is less is the $.
not including the Oil short at 80..which got torn up too.
Great trading from Surf's "rare stock picks".
Post 2 past winners and I'll agree there may be some good trading. and not that bs YM and phony FX trades...people have proved those to be fake already.
BTW..i'm not a TA trader...just smart enough not to step in front of speeding trains.

Stated differently, and just to be clear, if my posts are the tissue in question, then what would that make marketsurfer's posts?

no problem, thanks for the words. im always open to criticism, and am aware of my weak relative performance lately.
best,

Only "relative" to Vic is your trade selection not abysmal.....
I took an opposite trade based on a divergence, which was in line with trend.

And that's the result, I didn't hold all the way, but that is not relevant to entries. Anyway, something to at least consider looking into, just look at histogram on most commodity/index futures charts, especially daily/weekly/monthly.
