lessie, strong hands:
First I would have some strategists, some of them defining levels on the Fibs, pivot lines, MAs, stochs and other MACDs at which most speculators would react buy buying or selling.
Then, I would put a statistician on a programm, telling me how many speculators would queue their orders at specific levels.
Then I would set up a programm sending the least possible orders to the market in order to achieve the best trap (most speculators acting in the same way, for the least money I would spend on my own orders).
Working that way, I believe I would have an edge and could be called a strong hand?

TA is not predictive, TA explains actions of the past and has some more or less reliable patterns statistically repeating.
The more speculators rely on TA, the easier it becomes to trap them on false hopes and drive the market to your own advantage.

Well, ranting also...

EDIT: Scott is right. Whichever the startegy, better to have one than none.
Risk management is what makes you lose less.
And let your winners run: all that matters.
