Bill,
Not trying to change anythinge you do, just looking for "additive methods"
that may all make us money? I can tell you do believe in it and that's fine,
as the say different strokes for differnet folks.
To answer your question, I started with it in 1994 evaluating the software
for a "large commodities brokerage firm" locally, it was called something
differnent then (EWOL?) and available on CQG.
They did not understand it (neither did I) and the broker asked if I would
offer an opinion on it (he knew was fairly software efficient). I did not
know futures at all (only stocks and options then) and did not know a
soybean was if I stepped on one (still the case). Anyway the broker was big
into beans and I ran the AGET and it warned of a failed 5th wave or a double
top in beans (they were around 7.00+ as I recall). I called a friend that I
knew who traded commodities and asked him about beans. He was long and his
comment was "beans in the teen's". I told him he should come down and look
at what I was seeing. He never did and bought them all the way down to the
mid $5, and went bust (later divorced over this). So I am thinking, I don't
know crap about this but this software made a good call, then maybe, just
lucky. Later on it made another good call in gold and silver, so I bought
the software in mid-1995 and been working with it ever since. Was it that
easy after that, nope, never is but it is the main positioning tool I still
trade under and almost every week I still learn something new regarding this
and other techniques. I don't know about others but that is "cool" about
what we do, it is constantly "additive" hopefully.
That is my story how about you?
