Re: 2 Quick Notes - Tom Demark's Sequential

Hi All:

This question of copyright always puzzles me.

Perhaps some of you who are in the software and publishing business can
answer this question.

Is the material in an investment book copyrighted?  For example, is
Wilder's RSI indicator ("New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems"
copyright 1978) which is present in any $10+ investment softwre copyrighted?


I ask this question because in almost all books I've read, whether fiction
or otherwise, when you come to the copyright page, there's always some
words like these:

"All rights rserved.  No part of this book may be reproduced in any form
whatsoever, by photograph or mimeograph or by any other means, by broadcast
or transmission, by translation into any kind of language, nor by recording
electronically or otherwise, without permission in writing from the
copyright holder, except by a reviewer, who may quote brief passages in
critical articles and reviews."


Yet we (including myself) quote stuff freely, and post them freely as well.


Are we infringing on copyright legal issues?


Regards,

Wong

ps:  Just being curious...
