Wart,
Thanks for the suggestions.
As far as an exercise section...the market does that every day. Right now the MTON chart is a great realtime exercise in IL/ACT possibilities.
I like the idea though. If I were to create one it would take some time. The manual already has sufficient examples of IL/ACT, 3 dRSI tricks, MIMBOs, and now Temporal Clearance, etc. I realize that recognition of them comes easy for me since I developed them and a "before and after" self-test kinda thing would be helpful. That treatment will come when I take the manual into publishable mode as a complete text. Since the manual is now over 200 pages...yikes...when I go into detail that would make it completely standalone from a seminar adjunct, it'll go to 500 pages and have a pretty hefty pricetag at Barnes and Noble.
A reference section...or index...or table of contents is also a great suggestion. It's been suggested before. The reason (or excuse) for not having such in the manual is that I so frequently update the entire technical section to within a week of alot of the seminars and since there's such a landslide of co-mingling chart/chart, TA/chart and TA/TA aspects involved, I don't have the time to create anything comprehensive enough to be suitable. The seminar format takes care of alot of that if you are good at taking notes. During the 7 hrs in which I present the material I try to hit on as much of the referencing and indexing as I can. For anyone following the thread ( and paying attention) there's a ton of info useful for referencing and indexing. Again...a stand-alone published text would include the necessary aspects of reference, index and table of contents. Yikes...now it's 550 pages.
As for a scan section...I don't write scans. My seminar grads who have a knack for coding parameters necessary to create 56er "templates" (such as yourself, Milesov, Mag, Bruce, Bdog, Kim, Woody, etc) do the writing. I allow them to have complete ownership of any scan they create. I have a few on file but I don't run them myself. I'm of the opinion that scans tend to be a day late at best. Since almost all of the scans used on the thread came directly out of my work I pretty much know how to beat them by at least that one day. The most recent example is when I posted TECD as a buy under 45 it started hitting the autotrick scan the next day. It'll start hitting the m12 +25 scan soon. Since I know what goes into the scans, I also know what prerequisites are necessary before the scans see something. But it's my own commitment to each scan writer's private priveledges that guides my tendency to leave it up to them as to who they share the scans with.
Now...retire a week after a seminar???? Wellllll...LU is kinda low here. >>gg<<
