OK, considering the source here, I'll take that as a polite response. I'm going over to that site right now and do some homework. You gonna be around today? I may want to come back with some questions.

Nope. Not me giving out that secret password to TC. I've helped him all I'm gonna. Look what happened after all I've done for him already... he turns pro and is raking in all the dough.

Read all that. Now my eyes are bloodshot from having to read that horrible red type against a black background. Who ever thought of that?

Since I'm not a commodities guy, most of that wasn't interesting to me (or understandable).

Your chart on the "go here" page was interesting, though. With a couple exceptions, you could have traded pretty successfully with nothing more than Woodie's 25 lsma. I've never heard of a "linear" ma. Or, is it something less complicated with a fancy name? How is it calculated?

I haven't traded the OEX for quite a while, but should have these past couple of days... dadgummit! I still find my old "SuperGlide" approach for stocks fits me best. An easy to understand MAX using the 8d EMA and the 10d SMA. Of course this isn't for day trading, which I don't try to do much of anyway.

I've told myself, once I can spend more time at the computer, I will do more day trading. But for now, too much time required to take care of ailing mom and uncle.

Anyway, thanks for the polite response. Keep me posted on those classes... they sound interesting.
