Here is what TASC has to say about John Murphy. In their Bonus issue at TASC at the begining of 1999 (Issue received right after the issue of December 1998), They had an interview with John Murphy Which was covered on pages 27 to 37. The following is the first paragraph which is an introduction of who Murphy is by TASC: John Murphy, a veteran of nearly 30 years in the equity and futures markets, is the technical analyst for CNBC television, publisher of the "Future trends and Intermarket Analysis" newsletter and author of such classics in the field as Technical Analysis of the Futures Market and Intermarket Technical Analysis, and his newest work, the Visual Investor, promises to be comparably memorable. Most recently, he is the cofounder of MurphyMorris Inc., a joint venture to develop multimeda software for investors interested in technical analysis. With all that he's seen and done, what are some of the technical approaches he's most impressed with? TASC wants to know as indicated by the last sentence in the above paragraph "what are some of the technical approaches he's most impressed with?". TASC describe Murphy as "a veteran of nearly 30 years in the equity and futures markets, is the technical analyst for CNBC television". Murphy is a pioneer when it comes to Intermarket Analyses as he was the first to write on the subject over ten years ago and most recently. His entire interview with TASC is on Sector Investing. His books on Intermarket Analyses and Sector Investing are very advanced and certainly not for beginners as some have suggested. I can tell when the DOW is going to go up or down or in trading range without looking at the DOW index or NYSE index or the NASDAQ. Can you do it? This is the tip of the iceburg of what you can learn from Murphy. Christopher

I thought you said you were leaving. With each post, you seem to expose more ignorance of TA. Are you using your daddy's computer? You should start a topic of your own and tell people how profitable sector trading can be. You can get a scanner and copy from the books you have read. The topic might become popular then you can write a book about what other books say. Many of the writers you keep mentioning have done that. I have them on my recommended list, I think Murphy does a great job of explaining basic TA methods and feel everyone should read his books. I asked your definition of an oscillator because your post made no sense and I wondered if you had any idea what they were. After seeing more of your posts, my conclusion - you don't. Good luck
