Doug, C'mon...just put up some symbols...try one for just 50%. As I stated earlier, on 4/7/99 I posted my purchase of ORCL at (split adjusted) 11. It got no response from you, so I assumed you were not interested. ORCL trades today at 90. You do the math. Any professional trader would be thrilled at being right 50% of the time BECAUSE they manage their trades. Any professional trader will tell you that a 50% accuracy rate is the WORST of all possibilities. Think about it Doug. A 40% accuracy is far better than 50%. All you do is use the 40% accurate indicator as a contrarian, and you've got a system that is RIGHT 60% of the time. But if you've been profitable with 50% accuracy, more power to you. Your the first trader I have ever heard of with that particular prowess. You're throwing around some rather arbitrary dictates. I'm only throwing around dictates made by the creators of the indicators that you use. Their opinions on 50% accuracy trading and false confirmations are widely read in "Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities Magazine." And...no...the Actrade going to Zero (lol) thread has been expunged from SI. I didn't find the post I recall on pink's thread but there seems to be some "dumping" on what I do here... That is really pathetic Doug. You should be ashamed of yourself. First you make disparaging remarks about me behind my back. You then justify it by saying I did it to you over 2 years ago, and you never forgot it. "Stay tuned" you said, you would post my offending post. You were unable to find any such post because I never made such a post; that is because I never felt anything negative toward you, until now. Unable to prove your allegation, you state that it must have been on a thread that no longer exists. The only thread with regard to ACRT I have ever posted on is the one that is still there - every post. A few days ago, I was a little hurt by your characterization of me as blind, because I considered you a person of character, just a person with whom I disagree in terms of technical analysis. You've proven yourself to be a coward with no character. There is no dishonor in admitting you've made a mistake. I gave you every opportunity to do so. There is only dishonor when you refuse to admit you've done something wrong. Feel free to post criticisms of me without giving me a heads up (as I had initially requested). Your opinion of me is no longer a concern. Cube
