Originally I found that 11 was another perfect square but I chose to use 7's because it gave me more options as far as chart increments. By using Prime Numbers for your squares we again eliminate another variable form our chart increments. How refreshing to see people think for themselves and use the grey matter God gave them. Let me know if I can help further.

ps. at this point, even a series of real time calls, prior to the fact, would do wonders to influence this infidel---
I've been sending you some of my calls in real-time (End of Day Swing Trades and Weekly Swing Directions). What you can't read English or ask questions to clarify what I sent you?.

i did recd several of your newsletters, however none recently, if you sent them they must be going into my spam shreder,sorry.
can you post the calls here or on your own journal on et OR better yet, set up an account with collective2 for an objective presentation of your work.
thank you,

Don't worry about receiving them anymore. Since you received them in the start and they all went to the same address, YOU rerouted them. It's obvious if YOU rerouted them to SPAM, YOU didn't want the real time calls in the first place. Then you wouldn't have anything to piss about. That's logical which again makes no sense to a Statistician like yourself.

ok, if you say so.
what makes no sense is why you will not provide real time calls in this forum or better yet on collective2, for an objective look at what you do.

Pardon me?
Do you want me to post a link to the the first and last journal I tried here at ET where YOU relentlessly harassed me. Do you have dementia?
As far as C2, the only person that wants this is you. Other traders in this forum have used the information I've provided to enhance their own trading by actually applying it & testing it on their own. Verifying the results for themselves. You are too lazy for that. You have continuously stated that you rely on "others" for your trading answers. You are incapable of original thought and are nothing but a leach. I refuse to be a minion for you.
I was nice enough to send you my charting . . . in advance . . . so you could get an idea of what I look at when I make my trading decisions. Included in those charts were trade recommendations . . . in advance. You, in your infinite wisdom, SPAMMED them after you had looked at some of the original ones . . . through your own admission.
I was nice enough to allow you to have someone (Hombre) sit in on one of my classes to give you an honest evaluation of what I do. He did and you ignored him.
I was nice enough to offer you a seat as a journalist in my class again to give you the opportunity to debunk what I do. You continuously refuse for one lame reason after another. Constantly redirecting the focus somewhere else.
All you wish to do is to argue. You don't want information that could POSSIBLY benefit you. You are an arrogant pompous ass who thinks all inroads to trading have been created and nothing will ever be found to improve on what already exits. Hey, that is fine if you wish to live in a cave but there are some traders out there smart enough to have an open mind and actually test things on their own. They do not trust what they are told they trust what they can verify through their own confirming research. You are incapable of that.
One only needs to read the following, from your own website to reveal your true colors. That and your own "Surf Journal" here on ET of trying to Short the YM since last October pretty sums up your proficiency in this industry.

thanks for the PR, i forgot about that one. i have evolved quite a bit as a trader since that <b>"master interview"</b> of 5-6 years ago. however, it does capture my thoughts/methods at that time. are there any interviews of yourself you would like to share??
regards, surf
Thank you Prof for your postings. A long time ago I captured almost every post that did not contain a response to smurf. Your use of TrueStrengthIndex and an emphasis on price instead of the indicator was very helpful. Your early threads were very informative until disrupted by smurf.Quote from ProfLogic:

Smurf cannot be taught, his posts today look the same as 4 years ago. Same, bet the extreme, hold till you puke or win strategy. 'Conviction over discipline' every time.
Prof, ignore the smurf, he is just screwing with you to increase his post count, for reasons known only to him, and to distract ET readers from his trading performance over a period of years.
Good luck with your trading.
Just to summarize Marketsurfer:
These are directly from a supposed interview on his site and not edited.
Some people think technical indicators are more powerful than they really are. For example, a moving average or a Bollinger Band is a statistical calculation, but itâs nothing more than that.
Right. Thatâs all it is. As far as I can see, technical analysis is merely a way to determine trend. Once the trend is determined, an educated guess can be made about what direction the market will take and whether this trend is going to continue or not. A lot of people look at technical analysis as if itâs a crystal ball. It really isnât a crystal ball at all. Itâs just a tool or a method for determining trend.
Once you determine the trend, how do you know whether it will keep moving in that direction?
Thatâs where a lot of experience and intuition comes into play. Thatâs why two different people can look at the same technical indicators and one will say the trend is up while the other will say the trend is down, depending on the time frame theyâre looking at, for instance.
What kind of indicator might you look for to support the contention that itâs an upward trend, for example?
I try to keep things simple. I look for an upward sloping, 20-period moving average on a day trade on a three-minute chart, which means that for the last hour, the last 20 periods of three minutes each, the market has been trending higher. So automatically Iâm thinking, "This thing is going to go higher." I also look for the price, the candle that represents the three-minute price pattern of that stock, to be physically above the up sloping moving average. Those are the two main things I look for, before I place a trade. Iâve found that that method alone is uncannily accurate, if youâre willing to get out as soon as it goes against you.
You have a clear mental stop loss point, and you get out?
Once I have a gain, I never stay in and let it turn into a loss. I always get out even at least.
What do you like the most about trading?
I like the freedom that it gives you, the ability to earn a living while not having to have employees, the mental challenge, and the constantly changing environment.
How do you measure you success as a person?
I measure my success as a person with how I interact with my family, and how I interact with others.

Point taken.
I just don't want traders to believe there is even a molecule of credibility in his posts. Traders need to think for themselves and verify EVERYTHING for themselves regardless of the source.
