%% Good practical definition. But for the few value type funds that occasionally do very well, Mr Buffet looks like he leads from something else, most likely fundamentals + book value stuff. Includes but limited to his quote ESG= ''asinine'' , Stupid x9+ =asinine. Interesting he was honest enough to forecast he may never do as well as he has, i believe him on that also, not a prediction. One could argue value investing is a strange from of TA , i would not. Actually any fund or any size trader would have to do very basic study of TA just to enter any order. One derivatives broker/securities lawyer/ current professor of business joked; a random walker would never pick up$20 off the sidewalk because an efficient market would not allow that /LOL
%% I agree with most of that LOLEXCEPT I dont thinks its condescending; its actually quite good for your health to laugh a lot= lol ''CHART alone'' profits or price + volume alone profits ?? Maybe mostly possible , but i have to wonder if you really would do that?? PeopleSoft trend same as US Steel as MSFT trend not likely. You may say well not the exact same on charts; well 1st + last was quite similiar for a while . Not a stock tip or LOL here
