  1. It's a simple rule, Dack. It's OK to trade if you drink, but not to post.

  3. OK, I'm going to take one more sally at this and then quit, so pay attention.

    Time in intraday charting is a bogus variable. Conventional one minute or five minute or whatever minute charting causes you to lose perspective. To get lost in minutia. To countertrend trade. Complex charting is the enemy of good trading. If you are daytrading, this is the only chart you need. One bar for yesterday. And a second bar for today. It's like an equivolume chart where the volume is all the volume.

    Thanks for trying, Nhkoi, but nobody responded.

  4. Hmmmm... I like my constant vol charts, don't know about one bar per day, sounds weird...

    Regardless, I think on that Socrates when I not in my cups...

  9. 666, as an unreconstructed Southerner, I might have use quadroon or poltroon.

  10. An interesting peculation, TeTa. But I came to suspect in recent days that Neoxx was a put-on. If so, he will reveal himself by blossoming into a great trader in Jack's absence.

    BTW, I was disappointed in the few expressions of regret at Jack's fifth retirement from ET.
