ynot:" T/A " >currently building software sentiment anlaysis that is time/consumption oriented what do you think ? fwiw, I think sentiment analysis is mass psychology. fwiw, I think the most important thing for a trader to know is not, "the market" but, "himself". fwiw, I think the most important thing for an investor to understand is: the structure of the major market indices (including global market indices), the sector indices, their components and bellwethers. in my experience, T/A breaks down at extreme lows and highs; when people lose themselves, follow herd instincts. in my experience, F/A breaks down w.r.t. investor sentiment; when people forget about "the company", and think about "the stock". in my experience, the "entry point" is ultimately irrelevant; it is the "exit point" that separates the real men from the boys in this game. When you're walking down a dark alley in a bad neighborhood, become a predator, not a prey. ...my deux centimes (^_^) -Steve
