"I'm confused about t3 though."
T3 is a Tim Tillson indicator (see the byline in the article). Although,
Tim and Jurik live in the same state, Colorado, and are both
engineers...they are not research partners. As Tim will readily admit:
faster in not necessarily better. Tim, along with his research partner,
Dave Chamness are part of a group that meets a couple of times a month in
Ft. Collins. Without mentioning any other names, many members in this group
trade, and trade hard, on a day to day basis. Almost all are double or
triple degreed engineers and I have yet to find any core group that can
"whip and beat" numbers like they can.
Plus, they all like to drink beer. On the other hand, I not sure that Jurik
has ever traded an issue in his life. I think I heard him admit that once
or twice. Also, I can't say if he likes to drink beer.
Take care,
Steve
