Head and shoulders is something hardly worth arguing over. It rarely plays out and is about as subjective as elliott wave "analysis".

A very compelling argument you have. When I find two independent Elliott wave traders who can agree on wave count and have become wealthy by their use of this "theory" that left Ralph Nelson Elliott himself dirt poor by his death, I may take another look at it. Borrowing a paragraph from David Aronson,

"The Elliott Wave Principle, as popularly practiced, is not a legitimate theory, but a story, and a compelling one that is eloquently told by Robert Prechter. The account is especially persuasive because EWP has the seemingly remarkable ability to fit any segment of market history down to its most minute fluctuations. I contend this is made possible by the method's loosely defined rules and the ability to postulate a large number of nested waves of varying magnitude. This gives the Elliott analyst the same freedom and flexibility that allowed pre-Copernican astronomers to explain all observed planet movements even though their underlying theory of an Earth-centered universe was wrong."

Anybody who seriously falls for this one size fits all retrospective nonsense deserves what they get.

Rather than insult those who clearly have a better understanding of standard forms of technical analysis like Eliot waves and head and shoulders patterns, why not learn from them?

If you're unwilling to do that, then refer to rule one of the user guide and keep your comments to yourself.

There were no personal attacks in my post and while the arguments I present may sting they in no way constitute an "insulting" post. Perhaps instead of playing mini-mod on the forum you either mind your own business or come up with an argument to counter what I posted. I'm happy to discuss things but I will not have some random person giving me a lecture on forum etiquette.

Also, seems that daily pin is working out pretty well, up 50 points for the first part of the day.

Excellent. I probably shouldn't have brought it up to begin with, this isn't the appropriate venue. Best wishes on your trades,

seeing order in randomness. Similar to seeing religuous statues move and then taking this as a sign of something.

hope you not offended ...

anyway, good traders are all humble so I trust you one of them... I wouldnt not comment if i thought you are not good.

Hi Macroman

Its just the way I trade. I look for recognisable patterns and trade them. Sometimes it is waaaaay to early that a lot of options are still possible. But then I prepare for them mentally that way. Just me thinking aloud. So I suppose you are right - 'seeing order in randomness' . Excellent saying.
