Tim - this is an internet forum. Don't take it so seriously.
As for threatening to move it to a non-trading related area of the board if someone doesn't give you evidence that it works - isn't that a bit like taking your ball home if they won't let you play centre forward ?
Everyone is free to not participate. I have found this both entertaining and enlightening. Enlightening in respect to how people get so upset by something they actually log on to and read on purpose.
There are a couple of possibilities here:
1 - TE does have some things to share but he wants to obfuscate so that not too many people don't learn it, thus negating it's usefulness
2 - TE is on a wind-up mission
3 - A little of both
My guess is there's a bit of winding up in there.
To be honest, it seems to me that if it is just a wind-up, it would be a bit of an own-goal because the person that spent the most time contributing to this is TE. The Excel sheet bar charts, making PDFs, the riddles etc - must have taken some time to plan out.
Also - if it is just a wind-up, then I am the person that has been most fooled by it. The good thing about that is that I can laugh at myself, so if it comes to that, it won't bother me half as much as people are bothered right now by NOT being fooled. Go figure.
If yesterday is anything to go by, then TE has given us some interesting pointers on when gaps might be filled & when they may not. This goes way back to the start and the discussion about ranges. I could say more - but if there is an edge there, I want my pound of flesh first.
Also, lot of us daytraders use the futures for direction and now we have another way to guage market direction than following just the futures. For sure, TE did not spell it out - but he did give us the author of the infomation (via a mention of "Bryce in the pub").
So what happens now ? Unless someone provides a detailed set of trading rules, T2W will move the thread ?
At the end of the day, it is just the internet. It is not serious business unless someone is trying to rip people off. I think the ignore button should be used.
