Hi Edgy et.al.
I understand what you're saying but I stick by my own philosophy.
Fundamentals drive the bus, even manipulated ones.
T.A. just records history and tries to predict the future (which is impossible to do, by the way- unless you're an accountant (lol)).
The only way T.A. can be accurately trusted, is if ALL conditions, everywhere, remain the same, and that also, is impossible, especially if the history has been distorted, and the manipulation in the future, is unknown.)
T.A., at best, is an educated guess, but the guess must be based on what Fundamentals are in force at the time.
Fundamentals are constantly changing which means that T.A. must be unreliable at best, and misleading, at worst, if followed to the tee.
"We live in interesting times"
Good Luck to all!
