    DJ Funk used to play this in his sets. Brings back memories.

  4. Of course it is. Everyone wants to take the easy road. If there was any convincing evidence, there wouldn't be a need to slave away in front of historical price data.

  6. Nor do miscreants, but don't let that stop you.

    I don't want to start a war over TA. Lo did attempt to quantify patterns like head and shoulders.

    Rather than abandon charts, try trading something else. I chose the NQ over the ES years ago and have never had reason to regret it. The NQ is volatile, it's directional, it's predictable, and it moves.
