This reveals the real objective of this individual - not to further the
knowledge of the trader but to sell you something.
And there is no double standard. Each and every technique should stand up to
the same level of scrutiny. I would like to see just one astro guy respond
to questions on his technique with an objective experiment that could be
tested by anyone. I don't think we will see such an offer.
