Kent,
Honest questions derived from professional
curiosity and a sincere desire to improve all our trading skills, no
intent other than what is clearly stated below is implied or should be
perceived.
You said "IN REALITY, the markets are totally
chaotic".
Do you believe the markets are totally random and
contain no patterned behavior ?
I believe a detailed study of the historical
price activity of each market does reveal a definitive patterned and
predictive behavior for that specific market.
You said "You will never become a professional
trader by drawing geometric patterns on charts".
Did you believe there is no geometry involved in
market price behavior ?
I believe that a detailed study of the geometrical
behavior of historical price activity for any given market does reveal geometric
patterns that can be extremely powerful in predicting future price activity
behavior for the specific market being studied.
I would be extremely interested in opening a
dialog with you via the list as I believe we could explore these
positions/beliefs to the benefit of ourselves and many of the
other subscribers to the list.
God Bless and best wishes in all your future
endeavors,Tom

Good point on the methods discussed on this list. And
I think that does thenewbies on the list a disservice. As humans,
our brains want to formpatterns and see the market respond to pleasant
shapes like squares andgentle waves. IN REALITY, the markets are
totally chaotic. You will neverbecome a professional trader by
drawing geometric patterns on charts. Butnewbies don't know
this. They think that mystical methods have merit. Thislist
doesn't exist to disabuse newbies of that notion, but more and more
itexists to promote those methods. And like you said, most of the
quants aregone.List often do have agendas that are not spelled
out. And the fact that Markattacked BobsKC for being a vendor and
now BobsKC is the activemoderator....Kent-----

Not a list where anyone with an email account tosses outKR> completely
hypothetical crap about what the market may or may notKR> do over a
hypothetical timeframe. How about you?It may have to do with how
people on this list think. I seem to detecta strong bias against
quantitative methods, and an open-arms receptionto mystical methods. There
is *very* little hard-nosed quantitativediscussion on this list, and most
of the 'quants' are gone, some bybeing banned. It seems that this attitude
is desired by the members,and is not likely to change.Lists
generally have agendas that are NOT spelled out in thedescription, and it
is these hidden agendas that seem to cause
manyproblems.To
