certainly you do not mean to say that patterns are strictly judgmental and
indicators are strictly objective.

true, edwards-magee patterns have traditionally been an exercise in
'judgement.'  but anyone who wants to quantify these types of patterns can
do so in strict mathematical terms just as one can also quantify, say, a
stochastic signal.  it is up to the trader to what extent the 'pattern' or
the 'indicator' is quantified.
