  1. Another delicate genius disturbed and.. (sigh) E.T.'s loss. Statements like that are exactly why people call you a faker. Comprende muchacha?

    Sorry to disappoint you, I will not leave.

    Bashers (like you) will always have a negative explanation, whether you say something smart or something stupid.

  3. I don't trade trends. OP should have established a Poll (Yes, No) cause it interests me. I don't care about the "long term predictability", but about the short term volatility.

    To say one needs trends to be profitable is BS. One can make money on patterns such as Megaphone, or with Range Bound Markets.

    To Make (or lose) Money, one needs : Time, Volume & Volatility

  4. Me, basher? LOL. No, folks living in reality understand their words and actions are directly correlated to the feedback they receive in the world around them.

  5. Your definition of a trend is different from mines.. I don't call "price movements" a trend.. Trends to me is when price is moving in one direction for good amount of time.. Sure price could look like a trend on a 1 min chart if the market is ranging.. But the problem is, if you are not skilled enough you will take long/short right at resistance..

    So, in order to profit, price doesn't have to trend at all..

  7. Certainly your def of what a trend is ain't the same as his own def because trend is a spurious phenomenon.

    That's in line with my statement.
    Or maybe it has no correlation at all ...
    Like ... Uh ... What ... Maybe ... Say ... Trends ?
    But it's cool you chase trends. I need guys to jump in late.
