Hello Ton,

> BTW if you know the book of David Aronson - "Evidence Based TA" - my
remark about randomness and TA is where EBTA is all about. 

Yes, I know it, really a great book, lot of precious insight into
statistics in general and into the data-mining bias in particular, I
wished I knew it earlier : ) 

For the ones not owning the book, this paper is an excellent start on
the data mining bias:

but the experiments in EBTA are much more useful for the trader ..

Interesting, there are many textbooks containing artifical price time
series following random walks, and indeed they look very real ..
