Is it me, or is it curious that you'd think that since the candlesticks were developed by rice traders in Japan several centuries ago before the West even knew what they were, that perhaps the experts in this matter might be Japanese?

It somewhat amuses, yet appalls me that Westerners should come around to another culture, usurp its technology, and then declare themselves as the experts in the "new" technology.

So, with candlesticks, is this the case? Love to hear an Eastern perspective - perhaps Soultrader, you might have some insight or opinion on all of this?

cooter - just b/c something originates in a different country does not mean people in other countries cannot use it and/or perfect it. See the car industry for an example. Good ole Ford, Chrysler, etc is where it started and now the foreigners are over taking the 'experts'. How dare they!
