B-but but but TA is real I tell you! I don't care that the number one rule in finance and investing is "past performance does not indicate future returns" I want to believe in my magic squiggly lines!

The truth is that many people trade on published analyst opinions, so these opinions have a lot of pull in the market, whether they're true or not.

TA has a lot more to do with psych analysis than finance.
If I could show you that by scaring the shit out of ten people, I could cause them to run out of a room, how much would you bet me it wouldn't happen with the next ten I brought in?
If you apply "past performance/future results" to this, I shouldn't be able to predict it at all.

I saw 2 crows fighting over a frog. Is it an omen?

>> No.1418664

I used to be a chartist. I used to be a pattern analyzer.

It's all horseshit. You spot the trend then tell people, making it a self fulfilling prophecy

The game comes in where you look for the convergence of the indicators that the HFT's trade on, and look to frontrun them. The golden MACD crossover or the death cross are two i know of that MM's for a fact link up on and pump to death

That's not true.
Once I scared an algorithm so bad, it jumped three feet in the air.
