The big firms don't realy have a good place for TA.  They will hire
them but tend to let them leave or run them off.  They like analysts
because they can sell that trash to institutional clients and tout it
to retail clients.  The firms own trading arm doesn't always use their
own in house TA people so where is the money in the TA group?  Plus as
we know too many think TA is hokus pokus.

Assuming Louise Yamada is one of the better TA people, what
does that say about TA......
