[EquisMetaStock Group] Does TA work?

Technical Analysis (TA) can be both a time-saving tool and an extension of 
a trader's own abilities.  Unbeknown to some, it is not an effortless 
shortcut to profitable trading, its is not an ATM, and nor is it the Holy 
Grail.

TA is a tool like any other, useful only to those that can put it to good 
work.  Often, sweeping statements are made such as "TA doesn't work".  
What I read there is, "TA doesn't work for *me*, because either I don't 
understand it, and/or I don't have the skills or experience to put it to 
good use, and/or I'm waiting for someone to do my homework and explain it 
all to me".

For an analogy to TA tools, take the building tools of a good tradesman: 
hammer, saw, nails.  Given enough experience and skills, there is a good 
chance this person could build a simple house with his tools.  I see this 
where I live.

Now, along comes anonymous amateur handyman Blow Joe, and saturates a tool 
forum with sweeping statements such as "building tools don't work, they 
cannot be profitable, you cannot build a house with them, they've been 
fail-tested by professionals, the saw doesn't work anymore, blah, blah, 
blah."


TA does work.

It works for those who are prepared to put the time and effort to 
understand the tools and use them appropriately.  Beware of charlatans 
that come to a TA forum and claim otherwise.
