    Andrew – great interview and info. I'm always impressed by the number of different guests you have on presenting ideas and techniques, it shows you are out there in contact with individuals that are active in the markets.

    One consistent thing that comes up is that is that they're all very aware of the tenuous and sometimes confusing market dynamics which at times are very tough to read and balance the fundamentals of the market and the US/world economies, and the technicals.

    Here is a fun technical indicator for you – a computer from the 1940s that modeled the british economy and it runs on water. It has inputs for banking, savings rate, foreign exchange, and others:

    Does TradeStation come with Demark indicators or do you have to purchase an add-on package?

    Just found some free Demark indicators at http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/vb/local_link… for the Ninja Trader software (also free). I love free.

    This was a great episode IMO. Even Kevin's macroeconomic views seemed reasonable and not overly wild to either the bull or bear end of things.

    Can't seem to get Ninja to work on my Windows 7 beta. Know any other free technical analysis programs?

    Demark indicators available from

    http://www.thegrafster.com/tipspage.htm

    Ceequential This is a scarce implementation (for retail investors, at least) of a market timing method created by Tom DeMark. He named it Sequential. It identifies repeating price patterns (sequences) that often mark price exhaustion areas where the trend is likely to consolidate or reverse. Many securities exhibit price behavior that can be exploited with this method. Avoid those giving consistently false signals! Also check weekly and monthly charts for confirmations of daily chart patterns. The GRAFster5 Help file explains the technique and the rules employed here in detail. Use with care. If this method piques your interest you should take a look at the More Tips page.

    Kombo This mimics the Combo indicator also by Tom DeMark. A variant of Sequential described above, it attempts to signal market turning points before reversals actually occur. Consider using this indicator alone or along with Ceequential as a filter or a confirmation tool. This chart image is an example of nearly coincident signals on a daily chart of AMD. Use GRAFster5 to confirm these signals and find others like them.

    Kevin Depew only gets better with each day's posting. In those rare days when Kevin doesn't post his "5 things" I slip into a deep depression and can only be revived by re-reading old articles. Laugh out loud hilarious stuff. As a child of the 60's, I have to ask how old Kevin is. This terrific insight can only have been gained from living during the 60's and 70's, not from reading about it.

    The GRAFster6 Help file explains the technique and the rules employed here in detail.

Got something to say?
