  1. You need to read in context. Theater was the hype around the market top call- nothing else. This is clear to everyone but you, I see. Now you know.

  2. Sisterdoji, You realize you are directly contradicting yourself when you say " not picture perfect" then have said " my method can be automated". Have you finally realized there is much discretion in what you claim and it's subjective? surf

    Men have been using a form of TA/PA for centuries to make decisions about women.

    Charts display price action to attract buyers and sellers. Women display curves, bumps, actionable displays just as a wiggle in the walk, jiggles and bounces at strategic spots, etc, etc, etc.

    Price action can be displayed by different types of charts, line, ohlo, candycanes, etc. Women display by hair color, movements, perfumes, loose or tight clothes, clothes can reveal more to come or hide the prize.

    The list goes on, but much the same.............WE MAKE JUDGEMENTS in life from prior information regardless if the info is subjective or objective.

    What we do with all inputs is what determines who wins and who loses.

    :eek:

  4. Don't let it get to you. Yes, there are people around who think there is only one way to do things, and that is the way they do it.

    All that means is they have closed minds, and a closed mind is such a waste, so when I see that I feel grateful I am not thus afflicted.

    Imagine going through life unable to see that there are other ways that something can be done, unable to appreciate the beauty in diversity that this world has to offer.

  5. So reading a chart is like reading a woman?

    Damn, that explains why I can't day trade.

  6. ok, buddy, name me ONE SINGLE thread at ET where someone consistently made money purely based on technical analysis. Consistently means over a time frame longer than 6 months, with at least 100 trades, live trade entry and exit. None exists! Do not name it, provide the link to it.

  7. Why do you assume that anyone who makes money would automatically want to post calls or details of their P&L?

    I know a number of people who trade for a living, have done so for years, and who wouldn't dream of doing so.

    As for this constant asking for P&L, it is the internet age equivalent of going to a cocktail reception and asking people you meet "How much do you make a year?".

    In case you don't know, that is in extremely poor taste.

    No contradiction. The core system was automated long ago and consistently profitable. Everything in my trading plan is objective. Although I sometimes take discretionary trades their track record is negative. I consider them mistakes.

  9. as I expected, money talks bullshit walks. I did not ask for pnl or blotters, I asked real-time entries and exits. If your TA gurus already put up tons of crap over dozens of pages they could as well post entries and exits like others have done. I just find it curious that there are many threads of posters who called entries and exits net-profitably in real-time on non-TA based methodologies, yet I find not a single one where someone could say the same about him/herself on the basis of fibs, moving averages, RSI, and what other crap there is.

    So, stop kidding yourself and others. Yes, we know it does exit, just because something does not work for you does not mean it won't work for anyone else, right?

    To 98% this site is losers' anonymous that much is at least sure.

  10. It is impossible to code non picture perfect anything. Anything coded must have specific definitions. Doji, you have me concerned. surf
