Tom Nicholas thinks he wants to short term trade, 3-5 days. An activity with built-in risk. He has a lot of work to do. He has spent little time in understanding the whys of the indicators but seeks an easy quick path. He is in a hurry. He expects that people, like Dave, should provide a detailed map on what to do. Dave and I respond to many more requests than we should, it takes time and effort. Most are satisfied with the responses, others due to their centric personality feel they deserve the response that they seek, voiced as they want to hear it. He went to about 5-6 topics with his funnymental statement/question, he got little or no response except here. Then he opened a topic about "gurus" who wouldn't give the gold away. The topic faded to a one man effort. He felt the topic was needed to voice frustrations over not getting the answers he wanted to hear in a form he wanted to see. You are so right about Dave. He is my good buddy for life.

"He has spent little time in understanding the whys of the indicators but seeks an easy quick path." On the contrary, I'm spending a whole lot of time studying this stuff. But it is true that I am in a hurry. And I greatly appreciate all the help given. Probably most people new to TA start to enter, open their eyes, and say, "OhMyGawd! There is one hell of a lot to learn here!!! Where in the world will I begin???" It's nice for the 'gurus' to offer a starting place, and to answer some questions that arise along the learning path. Sure, the 'gurus' don't have any obligation to offer advice or answers to specific questions. And there are a myriad of reasons why some may keep quiet. But it's greatly appreciated when various specific answers are forthcoming. So, thank you, once again. Nicholas
