Ivan, One of the earliest thinking machines was a chess playing machine. It was in late 1800's and it won almost every game it played. Of course it's secret was a midget who fit inside the machines inards. would that work for stocks? I gave up basketball because I kept bruising my elbows on the rim. wart

Well first you'ld want to think BIOSENSORS. These are devices which are implanted into the body to interact with it. In today's scenarios medical leaders are looking and, in some cases, deploying them to monitor certain types of conditions (heart, blood pressure, asthma and such). The aim here is to get to a point where through the wonders of wireless technology a doctor could not only monitor the person as they were performing their normal routine but would be able to intervene if an episode developed. Case in point. Your walking down the street and see a person collapse in front of you and you go to a phone to call 911. The person who answers the phone already knows that Mr J. Doe is having a heart attack and knows (GPS global Sattellite Positioning device) where he is and has already dispatched an ambulance who's paramedics already have his medical record up on there screen and knows exactly what to do. In another scenario the biosensor would also acts as a defibulator and once activated can jump start the persons heart or let loose a small amount of medication that is needed into the bloodstream. This is all due to the biosensor maintaining constant contact through cell/wireless tech with a 24X7 monitoring device located at a health center. Now if you take this to the trading arena a person has a biosensor and is able to communicate through it (again cell/wireless) and say they see what they think is a neat product they could pull up that industry sector or do a search for a symbol simply by thinking thier way through it (here it would depend how far into the future you want to go either through a watch or glasses type monitor or really far out, no actual device needed - direct interaction with the mind) Once you found the symbol you could scan the (ack!) fundamentals and charts, placing an order would be equally as simple you would always be online. Verification and authentication procedures would be equally as simple using the GPS device and Personal Identification #'s built into the biosensor (which would also have running figures on your margin limit and core account) so that they brokerage house(s) would know who and where you are. Hope this helps... I got lots of thoughts on this - feel free to e-mail me. jf...

Ivan, It would be great to have a program to follow the trendline stuff I do for stocks that hit the thread's scans. A price and volume alert would automatically kick in an appropriately sized order. Run the scans, tell the program to watch the hits. Hold them until either the target line is approached or the stop is hit. Since the whole thing boils down to buying a supply/demand dynamic the program would look at the recent trendline, measure the time from one anchor to the next and accelerate the protective stop when appropriate while also moving the profit taking stop up along the target line each day. All automated. 3 dRSI tricks, TC hits and signals based on the new 13 d/8 dBB thing I found would get a tight protective line, MIMBOs would get the protective line best suited for them, etc Doug R

Ivan, "THE OLDER I GET, THE BETTER I WAS" good one. I think Doug has a good handle on how the near term future of trading will and/or may already be. One would set up real time quotes to trigger buy/sell points and automatically trade your account. Also one could program in a risk reward feature, position sizing, blah blah blah and of course, a stop loss. I like this stop loss better because nobody else but you can see it. It can be mechanical but not swept by an MM. (do they really do that? ya they would send some bogus quotes your way to git cha) Also one could have a buy stop and again, for your eyes only since the quotes are coming to you and the order is kicked out by the program. I myself would still like to somewhat manually do this and am not an automode guy unless I wrote and tested the code myself. Way too many things to go wrong. I do think that in the future we will develop 3D type TA environments to give us the "z" axis and not just the flat chart of x and y. We will be in a virtual sphere of some sort and color being the way we see buys and sells. (the TA boys, Blake and Mag said some kind of 3D thingy is in the TASC rag this month. I need to check it out) I can see it now... we will have a heads up display wherever we are... living in a drunken cat gapping stuper... for now, the Die Button works just fine... getting better by the moment...>g< bfuturedog
