  3. as far as bubbles go, actually our entire economy is a bubble, because it is based on fiat money.

  9. Indicators are just smoothing filters of price and it can smooth just random noise as well so on what criteria can you decide if it is something genuine or noise ? Yes you can trade with indicators alone with money management - that's what I've done during a few years at the beginning - but it is much more confortable to use superior knowledge: I already said read the founders of TA don't read the "modern" authors who have generally very poor understanding of how market works and just play with toys and more or less complicated mathematical indicators which are just curve fitting and not genuine model because it would require more than just mixing parameters but a conceptualisation a fundamental model and after only a mathematical modelisation. So it is really not worth to use complicated indicators more than the primitive MM, MME (and simple derivation like macd) or Bollinger Band since most part of results come from Money Management. Complicated ones just add noisy artefacts and corresponds to nothing without true modelisation.
