bastards, I used to work the Asian shift as overtime when I first got into the business..I used to scalp the DEM and CAD while at the desk, loved it as the whole office was empty..
Dayum!

What kind of year are you talking? Mid or late 90's?

Bet CAD had 1.10-20 more in sight than parity!

Why in red, and NOT in blue?
where i put XX, XX is equal to X.
Also there is a 38.2 fib and 200 SMA and a TL.
that is my argument for thading there.
its in the charts i posted before.

OK...well that's confusing me even more now, because X looks to be about 80+ pips higher than XX. X + XX can equal XXX ! But what you just described should mean X + XX == X + X...or XX + XX. Anyway...I'm lost now...no surprise there, though!

Cool cool.

Bastards will do with us what they will!

The more obvious your trendlines are...the better! (<- personal opinion)

The more money looking right at them...the more likely they'll get respect.

Yes i agree with everything you say.
X=XX is not saying the levels are equal but the lengths of the waves are equal. But i don't think there is a character i can use for that in ASCII like in math.
But i think you know that.

or i should say X-W = XX-Y but is not so easy to read.
