Re: Technical Analysis: Is it voodoo? Or does it work?

Not all market participants make instant trading decisions so to say price instantly reflects all known events is just silly. News takes a while to digest and price takes a while to reflect the new fundamentals. The post-FOMC market reaction is a good example. Market participants were reacting to the statement at least 30 minutes after it was released.
