Is it not funny how some people always resort to The question of Intelligence of one person or another. If we all thought in the manner of the idiot that coined the Subject Phrase the world would be in even a sorrier state.

When I was a child the Premier of South Africa published his belief that the world was Flat. People laughed at Dick Tracy's Watch Phone. Jules Verne was considered a fool for writing about Man going to the Moon.

And yet here in the 21st Century we still have a  person with the same vision as the then Premier of South Africa, the same vision as the detractors of Jules Vern. The same myopic minds that cannot see beyond their noses or outside the square from which they dwell.

We TA Practictioners may very well be ' Peddlers of snake oil'  but to speak about a subject with the obvious lack of knowledge that you have  this we dare not do. Bon Chance! Imbicle'!

<<A classic re your posts recently, call it what you want , your investment
strategy was exposed for the "hobby" that it is. As Phaedrus says, he has
done this for years with you, exposing your blatant weaknesse's, based on
dogma, you really would have fitted in well with the communists, they dont
like making money either.>>

 

Not every TA practioner is as objective as Phaedrus. You only have to look at most TA posts on US indexes on ShareTrader- intellectually dishonest fools creating an Alice in Wonderland construct to peddle their snake oil. Carefully side-stepping any indicators etc that may complicate their pre-conceived ideas. FA proponents certainly do not have the market cornered in dogma in any shape or form.

 

Your comment re Snoopy :"People come on to this board and pass you by, once your limited skills are learnt" is asinine. 

 

MacDunk, debating often reminds me of the way a bullfight is conducted. The outcome is known from the start, but the bull is allowed to run around for awhile because he just might gore the matador. When the crowd gets bored with this bull as he slowly dies,  he's finished off.
True objective debate: If the bull is to die, the quickest and most efficient way is a bullet without fanfare. ;-)
