Going to the source is always the preferred route, which is why I use the original course.

As to whether the differences are fundamental or not, this is easily determined ...
You are forever complaining about the differences between the original, SMI, and VSA. Why don't you highlight all the differences on the new Wyckoff Resources thread instead of always bitching and moaning about it everytime someone makes a post regarding SMI or VSA.

There wouldn't be anything on which to comment if you would stop making the claim that the original course and the SMI course are identical. As for "complaining", I'm merely pointing out the differences. There's no need to do so unless the claim is made that there aren't any.

This particular discussion stemmed from winnie's request for information on Wyckoff. Given the results, I suggested that it be moved to a separate thread, which has been done.

Let it go.

But you have never pointed out the differences, just complained. There was a whole new thread set up before to discuss complaints and differences about VSA, to which you chose to never avail yourself. You simply continued to bitch and moan here. You always do this and have never substantiated your complaints. Now you have another opportunity. So highlight the differences in the new thread. Then maybe you can let it go?

Why do you persist? The discussion had to do with the original Wyckoff course vs the SMI course (and, yes, I have pointed out the differences; do a search). All that has been moved to another thread. I was done until you started this up again two posts above. All this will be deleted anyway, so what's the point?

The concepts developed by Dow, Wyckoff, and Schabacker are the basis for virtually all non-indicator-based approaches to the market: supply/demand, support/resistance, trend/non-trend.
How about Gann ? Wasn't he one of their comtemporaries ? Besides his writings, his amazing trades were verified by the Ticker magazine back in 1909. I guess nothing is popular with the TL crowd here unless it has something to do with volume ?

Amazing how you avoid the subject. You have never pointed out the differences; just complained. Whatever.

Actually, Wyckoff seems to have thought that Gann was pretty hot stuff, which I found surprising (and I should have included Elliott). But perhaps this could be addressed in the new Wyckoff Forum rather than the VSA thread (what you quoted was posted before the new forum was created).

Re: [VSA] Volume Spread Analysis Part II

Re the point and figure charts a few posts ago I should add in addition to Gassah's software suggestions that I use Investor R/T for my live P&F charts.

Investor R/T builds the P&F from tick data (as long as you have the data feed) and does so flawlessly.

the new Wyckoff Forum
Hey, this is cool! So we now have on TL a Candlestick sub-forum and a Wyckoff sub-forum - this is excellent and highlights the quality of this board. James is once again to be commended!

Hi OAC. One thing I have noted with curiosity is the absence of Gann and Elliot related threads on our forum. While I am not a fan of either approach I respect those that are, the users of Gann and Elliot generally seem to put a lot of work into their studies, and am surprised the two fields have not been discussed at TL.

The board seems to be attracting a lot of new participants so hopefully we can attract new fields and threads for discussion too.
