  1. A direct challege.

    This will be met with silence of course.

    I have concluded that many of these posts are driven by some sort of deep seated insecurities on the part of some these folks.

    But we will see.

  2. Please excuse a personal observation (I DID post a trade confirmation, which is ONE more than all the rest of ET will do today, so you owe me an indulgence). I got tired of always being away from the computer when my audibles went off ("Boss! Come quick! ET is trading! Time to fade!"). So I moved down to my sun room adjacent to the kitchen (which is always where I am when the audibles scream). Closer to the champagne and the pitiful scraps of leftover food my wife brings me from her sumptuous fat-cat client feasts ("If you're not going to eat that, can I have it for my husband?").

    Anyway, I am seated where I can watch the bird feeder, and I was thinking about its ritualistic peckering order. Bluejays and cardinals eat anytime they want. Rabbits next, then squirrels, then doves, then sparrows. Finally, when all these are done, the field mouse family comes out. They are very careful, because I take potshots at them and occasionally set my wife's house tiger on them (all four pounds of her, funny how the smallest females are the meanest, the wife is small, too). But I never forget that soaring above them on windy days is a pair or three of red-wing hawks (on still days the cheeky bastards actually perch in the TREE above the feeder, the lazy fucks).

    Draw your own parallels to trading, if you will. Me, I'm a mouse. I eat fast!

  3. Well....I may have to rethink a bit. The MO computers just threw 1300 NQ cars at the LO computers on a downward channel FTT. But good old VWAP choked it!

  6. If this is you, you might like to see what the KoolAid thing with no channels, ffts, dips or doodles can do at the glacial 300000 milisecond timeframe.

    I must confess, I'm only paper trading it as of know but who knows maybe I'll start it.

  7. The point is to confuse you so you will think about the content. Is it false because an obvious idiot said it? True because a self-proclaimed genius said it? And yes, the Koolaid box is right.

  8. I know nobody gives a shit, but the REAL afternoon channel in NQ ran right through the VWAP, after three tries.

  9. Oh, the funny things you see watching the tape. Somebody just faded the upward BO of a downward NQ Jackel (that's a Jack channel for those of you not up on the latest lingo) with a 393 car short, hahahaha! Guess he don't like Jack, either!

  10. Thanks for yourRED HERRINGoffer but your attempt to obfuscate the real issue is puny and laughable. You're trying to hide a very important point: that the highly acclaimed 0 to 7 shift of the "P,V Boolean relation" is a bunch of Ballyhoo. Adding new conditions now, in hindsight, won't negate or disprove that.

    I was simply testing what's in "Catch Up with Tomorrow’s Paper Today" (attached). Jack has waxed so eloquently about the "P,V Boolean relation" and the "0 to 7" turn that one would think he's discovered relativity. So I measured the impact of the 0 to 7 shift IN ISOLATION. And I made that clear when I posted the first equity curve. So please spare us the red herrings.
