I'm glad PAMM worked out. TA is most accurate over intermediate periods, but it's sometimes useful in the ultra-short term. Lots of people think TA is akin to phrenology, but TA is closer to being a 'numerical analysis' of the predictability of human behavior based on past behaviors. If a chimp climbs to the top of his cage, swings 3-5 times, screams and then drops directly to the floor 180 out of 200 times, you can pretty much bet he'll drop to the floor after screaming the 201st time. That's the real 'science' behind TA. We're all just predictable screaming chimps. Or musicians. Take your pick. If I see any moonshots coming, I'll let you know right after I get my buy confirmation!
