    The Joy of Pseudo-Science

    This topic's latest addition is by Richard:

    I'm struggling with the point taotree mentioned about defining some sort of value system. But, what if we wanted to identify ways to reduce the effects of typical cognitive biases in our everyday lives?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cognitive_biases

    How do we help the brain see what's really there, instead of what it's inclined to see? I'm not sure how to define this as a worthy goal without saying an objective view is "better" than a subjective one. But, if we measure right [...]

    Integrating Wordpress and Phpbb3

    This topic's latest addition is by Richard:

    Hmmm. I noticed today that unmoderated posts were making it into the rss feed. Sorry about that. A search revealed that phpbb3 knows about it and is fixing it. But, I have no idea when they'll finish so I made a fix of my own. Here's what I did, which was good enough to work for me at any rate.

    I changed the code in class 'feed_overall', 'get_sql' method to say:

    Code:
    'WHERE'         => $db->sql_in_set('p.topic_id', $topic_ids) . '
      AND

    Price Inertia

    Some of the best trading concepts are the simplest. Price often has a kind of inertia.


    What I found interesting is the next part of that chat...

    I thought I was the only one that was seeing the importance of TrendLines.
    It seems as if they are the most important indicator in my tool belt.

    Enjoying the chat/Trade Example

    This topic's latest addition is by Richard:

    Today was a good day! Finally got a little movement in ES toward the end of the session. I had fun talking about what I was doing in the chat. Though I post charts to the "team-only" area, anyone should feel free to register for the forum and participate in the chat part. I usually have the chat up when I'm watching my charts, and there's often 3 to 5 people around. [...]

    Let Over Lambda

    This topic's latest addition is by Richard:

    Has anyone read this book?

    http://letoverlambda.com/

    I'm a big functional programming fan, and am itching to do a little lisp-ing (or more likely, scheme-ing). This might be a book to inspire me.

    About four years ago I made a non-strict scheme-y interpreter. It was running useful programs, but I never finished it. Part of me wants to resurrect that project, but I've got so many projects in motion right now I doubt that's a good idea :lol: [...]

    ZenFire vs. Barchart.com feed

    This topic's latest addition is by DavidB:

    Chris at Fulcrumtrader is very easy-going, except about the accuracy of Zenfire data when it comes to cumulative delta. After studying, he emphatically states it's not good enough and drops data. This is kind of nudging me toward upgrading my data feed. He said he has some guys that are using Ninja successfully with the DTN data. [...]

    One Way To Think About Indicators

    This topic's latest addition is by Richard:

    One way to think about technical indicators:

    You're reading a book. You have an assistant that highlights sentences that look interesting. This can help you give special attention to the sections with the most explanatory potential. It might even drive you to look at a section you were tempted to skip. But what can an assistant like this not do for you:

    • He can't always mark every section you would mark. Some may be missed. Some sections you feel are unimportant may be marked. So it's not a

    What is the difference between OnStartUp() and Initialize()?


    OnStartUp() is only called when an indicator is going to actually be calculated. You'll have access to a Bars object, and the ChartControl, etc. Initialize is called whenever NT decides to create a temporary version of an indicator (like when messing with indicators in the indicator dialogue) that will never be calculated. So OnStartUp() and OnTermination() are a nice pair of methods for allocating resources and [...]
