 Hi Woody, 
  
I have always held your posts in very high 
regard and your last post was no exception. 
  
It was excellent - pioneering - and 
very brave - proposing the exploration of uncharted territory and 
encouraging everyone to broaden their horizons (think outside the 
box). 
  
In a brain-storming session, participants are 
encouraged to 'think outside the box', take a non-judgemental 
perspective, and contribute both pros and cons in a positive 
manner. 
  
In this way, new ideas that may have 
great merit are not squashed before they are considered in their 
entirety. 
  
Your post reminded me of this, and as a life-long 
learner, I can say I was truly excited by your post, your pioneering 
spirit, and the prospect of exploring these 
possibilities through the ensuing exchanges. 
  
Of course, to be effective - it helps to have 
more than one contribution so I can totally understand your 
recent response. 
  
Also, there is some risk associated with proposing 
anything new and there is always 
some resistance (and rejection) of the unknown and of uncharted 
(please forgive the pun) territory. 
  
There are some very knowledgeable and 
experienced people who contribute to this forum and I sincerely hope they 
re-weigh the possible benefits against the personal risk of 
derision through exploring something new, offer to contribute, and 
help you to reconsider, BUT; even if that doesn't happen, I still 
hold hope you will reconsider and stay - please? 
  
Regards, 
Cris

  I am not about to get involved into the grey areas of TA or FA. 
  As you have pointed out and perhaps noticed my post have become less and 
  their impute limited. I am a professional trader and am finding these 
  debates tiresome. As you have pointed out this is a SHARE CHAT forum. I 
  am obviously in the wrong place. I no longer have the time or the energy 
  to debate with roundabout questions that have answers too profound for 
  this forum. I have learnt a lot from those unwilling to learn from me. I 
  have a business to run, a newly formed company to build up and trades 
  to evaluate. I wish all success in your various endeavours but this 
  forum is too time consuming for me. I am not a spoilt brat running away 
  from your questions, I am far too busy now, and need to concentrate on 
  my serious goals.
  Sorry one and all Woody

  I don't trade currencies or metals or sharemarket indices 
  like you do  Woody.  Perhaps T/A works well in these 
  areas.   I bow to your  superior experience in those 
  fields.   Meanwhile back in the world of shares (this is sharechat 
  after all) ,  which is where I operate, I have enough F/A opportunities to 
  research  without dipping into T/A.    I let the T/A guys 
  and gals on this forum  keep me up to date with that side of 
  things!
  > > As for Put/Call ratio, Shorting Interest, etc,

  If that is 
  so, why don't companies report on measures like Put/Call  ratio, Shorting 
  Interest, etc,in their annual reports?  Would you not  think that if 
  this was genuine fundamental information that investors  should know about, 
  that a least one company might incorporate such  information in their 
  annual report?    Can you name one?
  I notice you have 
  avoided answering my other questions, so I'll throw  them open to anyone 
  else on the forum who can answer them.
