once upon a time people read charts to get a basis for their trading. they looked at the the math based moving averages, indicators, trend lines, etc., as well as taking in the visual tools tsuch as patterns and the order of the candlesticks, and that data was then filtered through the experience of the chart reader. using fact rather than fiction -- what binds all of that is that they are etched in historical relevance -- a trader/investor could develop a plan, short or long term, and watch to see how it played out. the universe is not a chorus built on a single emphatic word: BUY! or, SELL! but...
if you read the boards today, you see that there is very little depth plumbed in the way of proffering knowledge. its all soundbytes, quick pithy comments that say little. and when you read the non-chart DD, it never takes into account either the changes or the churning, both up and down, that goes on in the day to day happenstance of a stock. that, my friend, is a short sighted view of how the market works.
worse yet, in a world where civility is disappearing, there is always one right side, regardless of which side its on, and whether or not it actually addresses the masses, and no one is allowed to challenge whatever assertation is so stated. yeah! that works. TV is reality and reality is TV. what could be clearer? everything has a simple explanation. its all war. and they're the enemy. whoever they are. its they're fault. they! they! they! ah, paranoia. i know ya' well. i drink you in daily. you're everywhere. but the soup is thick, and the ladle large, a mouthful i can't seem to rinse. but i'm working on it. so where am i going here? 'da nile'. not the river, the word. its actually a word apropos when seen in two blocks. da for yes. absolutely no thinking required. and the river nile to infer being adrift. in simpler terms, when you are in denial, you are at sea and no longer grounded. fighting the stock gods counts as lunacy. need i write more?
