Hey, don't knock the rubber duck indicator. I have 3 live (real) ducks, and
have been trading off them for the last 6 months, realized a gain of %85 on
options on the DOW. 1 quack in morning, buy calls, 2 quacks in morning, buy
puts, sell when the ducks flap their wings and quack, quack, quack! I have
a goose, and am going to paper trade off him to see if he can do any better.
I have a freind who is currently trading off a pig. The pig doesn't do as
well short term as the ducks, but for long term, can't beat him (kinda like
a MACD). I would bet on my ducks against a monkey/dart combination any
time! You people with your Ganns, stochastics, averages, Fibonacci cycles
don't know what you are missing! You know the old rule, KISS, keep it
simple and stupid! Don't think, stupid, just look at the chart, er, I mean
Duck.

Should I measure the lengths/ diameters of these parts or the circumference?
By the way, the Duck I have doesn't show any brand name or other markings,
except on the bottom it has "KTC@xxxxx" Do you suppose this Duck will do,
or must one have just the right Duck? If so, would you mind posting a .gif
so I can make sure I have the correct Duck?
