first a little theory: equis.com and now just a few examples on the predictive power of charts: spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com spytrdr.com if you think noone can see these things coming based on charts alone you’re fooling yourself. So it’s not, as you say simplistically, “price predicting price”, but certain price PATTERNS, FORMATIONS, COMBINATIONS predicting price. The reason many indicators such as RSI, OBV, moving averages, trendlines, etc are extremely useful is because they provide confirmation –or not- of what you’re seeing in the raw price data. RSI and the evening star candlestick, e.g., are extremely reliable, certainly much more so than your theories about “alien intervention in human affairs”. ___ <<Please tell me an effective decision procedure for determining a trend?
