LOL ---

I go off and leave the thread for a couple of days, and what do I find whilst catching up on the posts ....

Golden ---> means, rules, fleeces, and nary a mention of the XAU
Fibs ---> deriving from long ago Phoenicians, Greeks, etc, but ClubMed .... err ... MedOceanArea types ....

LOL

must be the moon change on the 13th ...
I got into a nice metaphysical discussion over the weekend with a Jesuit from Dallas concerning the interaction of time and its nonlinear relationship with the fifth dimension (or perhaps, to be more accurate ... A fifth dimension) ....

Now, before the market opens in just a short span of "time" ...
here are two highly intellectual statements which have some common ground, but not much ...

"It takes a dang big dog to weigh 500 pounds"

and

"500 pounds of flour will make a dang big biscuit"

Hi Pat,

I see that you have done a lot of homework on it though, is your background math-related?

No... not too much math. It interests me a great deal.... but in high school I only took calculus AP, and freshman year at penn, i took two upper level calculus courses just for fun. I was more of a humanities and classics (latin and greek) guy in high school.

I do read quite a but though, and my little lecture on the golden mean was based on my memory of those books I mentioned.... as well as the stories my one greek professor used to tell the class.

It was real interesting, as I recall, at the time when I was learning it but as I had no use for it then I did not retain much of it.

I couldn't agree more..... sounds like me. <g>

On another note, I stumbled on what looks to be a new site for market snapshots.....

tradingsystems.net;

interesting, thanks for sharing. TTYL, take care

Regards,

Frank
