With all respect gildage, I don't see it exactly that way. I have read hundreds of TA interpretations and predictions in the last few years that have turned out not to be of any value. There is NO ABSOLUTE way to predict the future.

There are trends, history, pattern recognition, seasonals.. you name it we have seen it all and I have yet to find one that I would bet my wad on. I read everything I can and respect those who share their work and or opinions. Ask yourself; what analysis do you have faith in? Has it been 100% true?

When I read Pic's posts I got the impression he was explaining influences and an interpretation of those influences on today's market. I'm a big boy and can make up my mind to write a check or not. I don't know anyone who has been always right or always wrong.

I want to thank everyone who shares his analysis/opinions/guesses and respectfully comments on same. I'll process it all and be the better for it. I appreciate your comments on the Mars turn around just as I appreciate Pic's courage in posting it.

I hope Don't reconsiders and sticks around. He too has been a valuable member and if he chooses not to return I will respect his decision but miss his contributions. This is an excellent forum and for the most part is self regulated. Different opinions and approaches is one of its strenghts.

If anyone has attacked you, or anyone else, for respectfully offering an opinion I'll appologize for that transgression. I value your opinion. I would hate to live in a world which had only one opinion, especially if it were mine. :)

Peace.

Jack
