Why does TA not work (for you)?

Quote from R. Raskolnikov:

Technically, all the components of my method are freely out there, it's the combination and the rules created around that combination that is private. But, that's not to say someone else hasn't or doesn't use the same strat I do. I'm just not aware of whether anyone is.

Right, same here.

When I look at T&S data, there are absolutely other trades going off at the same price around my trades and at nearly the same time, so, theoretically, someone could be using the exact same algo, but, as you say, it would be nearly impossible to discern that amidst the data.

Jack, this is what I translated into my language and the questions which came up. Did I lose something during translation?

This is the log. If this is as you expected then we can have a closer look at the content.

You didn't comment on the channels. Yesterday I had the impression that somehow the volume sequences and the containers didn't match.

And a last question... you mentioned "End effects". I'm not sure what they are. It could be simply the FTTs, or ftts.

But I think the first question is: You are talking about "End effects" of what? Containers? Volume sequences? Something else?

You also said that there are two test which one can perform to identify them. It might become clearer how to perform the tests once we know what the EEs are.
