Typical goddam yank. Arrogant, insular and
isolationist.As if the world revolves around the DJ!
Schesh. Is it any wonder people plaster your buildings over the
sidewalk?Now I've got that off my chest.., in Steve Nisons book,
"Japanese Candlestick Charting techniques" he investigated candlesticks
in1987 and first published in 1990. He says centuries old technique
very little known in west, in fact hardly anything in Englishbefore
87. So this standard reference text is about the ancient Japanese
rice market, adapted to the Japanese stock market byJapanese. Then
translated into English and published. Not once are any of the
combinations backtested. A good few examples ofwhat they look like
in a chart performing how they are supposed to work, but no substantial
evaluation of success. So is it notunreasonable to first check the
validity? I think in AB it would be dead simple to access a score for
each formation included andbacktest. I know that a commercial group
has done exactly this and discovered that the results are less than great, and
re-castingthe formations was necessary and the substance of their
commercial offering.As an approach to trading I think pattern seeking
is fine, I'm only suggesting that the proper care and caution be applied
beforeusing them with real money.Now if, we can avoid the
facetiousness in future we'll all be better off.P-----
