The point of this thread was to counter Surfer's argument and you're not even trading in a production account? You're using SPX for trade signals... how are you trading SPX?
Right, so according to Surf past data carries zero value when making trade decisions, my question remains unanswered - why so many 'coincidental' events take place (as seen on the chart) where price is bid up from previous reaction lows and vice versa from reaction highs? Random my ass. His AMD call happened to coincide with a multi year key support level which had never been breached IN THE PAST. His opinion and statements regarding uselessness of technical research means nothing to me, as I know it works for some and not for others, for him, clearly it doesn't work, but I don't believe for a second that he doesn't reference historical data, it's just a lie.
I've started posting this chart prior to Naz hitting current reaction high of 5231 pointing out potential relevance of .com highs, which are now in play, how random that is, maybe it's just luck? Is it random that last bear market came about upon S&P putting in a double top? Silver's top had no relation to the past? Why same level? Why did AMD reverse 3 or 4 times from almost same level that Surf now supposedly bought from? There are numerous examples, but, hold on, apparently they are all hindsight to him and it would be hypocritical to deny that, just as it would be to continue saying that it's all random and historical reaction levels carry 0 value.
