  1. The Bill of Rights

    (with brief explanations)

     

    THE PREAMBLE TO THE BILL OF RIGHTS

    Congress of the United States begun and held at the City of New

    York, on Wednesday the fourth of March, one thousand seven

    hundred and eighty nine.

    THE Conventions of a number of the States, having at the time of

    their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to

    prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further

    declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as

    extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will

    best ensure the beneficent ends of its institution.

     

    RESOLVED by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

    United States of America, in Congress assembled, two thirds of

    both Houses concurring, that the following Articles be proposed to

    the Legislatures of the several States, as amendments to the

    Constitution of the United States, all, or any of which Articles, when

    ratified by three fourths of the said Legislatures, to be valid to all

    intents and purposes, as part of the said Constitution; viz.

     

    ARTICLES in addition to, and Amendment of the Constitution of the

    United States of America, proposed by Congress, and ratified by

    the Legislatures of the several States, pursuant to the fifth Article of

    the original Constitution.

     

    Amendment I - Congress shall make no law respecting an

    establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or

    abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the

    people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Go vernment for

    a redress of grievances.

     

    Government can neither impose a state religion upon

    you nor punish you for exercising the religion of your

    choice. You may express your opinions, write and

    publish what you wish, gather peacefully with others,

    and formally ask government to correct injustices.

     

    Amendment II - A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the

    security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear

    Arms, shall not be infringed.

     

    Individuals ("the people") have the right to own and

    use weapons without interference from the

    government.

     

    Amendment III - No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in

    any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but

    in a manner to be prescribed by law.

     

    The government cannot force you to house its agents.

     

    Amendment IV - The right of the people to be secure in their

    persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable

    searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall

    issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation,

    and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the

    persons or things to be seized.

     

    You may not be arrested or "detained" arbitrarily. No

    agency of government may inspect or seize your

    property or possessions without first obtaining a

    warrant. To obtain a warrant, they must show specific

    cause for the search or seizure and swear under oath

    that they are telling the truth about these reasons.

    Furthermore, the warrant itself must state specifically

    and in detail the place, things, or people it covers.

    Warrants that are too general or vague are not valid;

    searches or seizures that exceed the terms of the

    warrant are not valid.

     

    Amendment V - No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or

    otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of

    a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or

    in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger;

    nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put

    in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal

    case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty,

    or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property

    be taken for public use, without just compensation.

     

    No one outside the military may be tried for a serious

    crime without first being indicted by a grand jury (of

    citizens). Once found not guilty, a person may not be

    tried again for the same deed. You can't be forced to

    be a witness or provide evidence against yourself in a

    criminal case. You can't be sent to prison or have

    your assets seized without due process. The

    government can't take your property without paying

    market value for it.

     

    Amendment VI - In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall

    enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of

    the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed,

    which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to

    be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be

    confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory

    process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the

    Assistance of Counsel for his defence.

     

    Trials cannot be unreasonably postponed or held in

    secret. In any criminal case against you, you have a

    right to public trial by a jury of unbiased citizens (thus

    ensuring that the state can't use a "party-line" judge to

    railroad you). The trial must be held in the state or

    region where the crime was committed. You cannot

    be held without charges. You cannot be held on

    charges that are kept secret from you. You have a

    right to know who is making accusations against you

    and to confront those witnesses in court. You have

    the right to subpoena witnesses to testify in your favor

    and a right to the services of an attorney.

     

    Amendment VII - In suits at common law, where the value in

    controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury

    shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise

    reexamined in any Court of the United States, than according to the

    rules of the common law.

     

    The right to trial by jury extends to civil, as well as

    criminal, cases. Once a jury has made its decision, no

    court can overturn or otherwise change that decision

    except via accepted legal processes (for instance,

    granting of a new trial when an appeals court

    determines that your rights were violated in the

    original proceeding).

     

    Amendment VIII - Excessive bail shall not be required, nor

    excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments

    inflicted.

     

    Bail, fines, and punishments must all fit the crime and

    punishments must not be designed for cruelty.

     

    Amendment IX - The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain

    rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained

    by the people.

     

    You have more rights than are specifically listed in the

    Bill of Rights.

     

    Amendment X - The powers not delegated to the United States by

    the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to

    the States respectively, or to the people.

     

    The U.S. federal government has only those specific

    powers granted to it by the Constitution. All other

    powers belong either to the states or to individuals.

     

    The Ninth and Tenth Amendments, taken together, mean that the

    federal government has only the authority granted to it, while the

    people are presumed to have any right or power not specifically

    forbidden to them. The Bill of Rights as a whole is dedicated to

    describing certain key rights of the people that the government is

    categorically forbidden to remove, abridge, or infringe. The Bill of

    Rights clearly places the people in charge of their own lives, and

    the government within strict limits - the very opposite of the

    situation we have allowed to develop today.


  2. Mroy; If you use candles and increase the size of the "+" in the Dynamic Fib ShowMe, it looks like a thermometer! Over at stockmarketfunding.com they use a very sophisticated Algorithmic version of this indicator.Check out the videos at the site and you can see how Mario uses them.Dynamic Support & Resistance Lines are also good for drawling your own lines for support & resistance.Tro has another good one called Push HiLo! whatever the case you got to use what works for you.Good Trading Sir.

  4. For the 3 temporal variables, the indicator's author counsels to choose respectively the lengths of

    9 days,

    26 days

    52 days.

     

    At the time of this indicator's creation, there were 6 days of trading in one week.

     

    These parameters corresponded therefore to

    one week and half for the short-term analysis,

    one month for the medium-term survey and

    two months for the long term.

     

    Today, the financial places are open 5 days per week.

     

    To adjust, you can choose therefore the periods of

    7 days,

    22 days

    44 days

     

    As for other indicators, the parameters must be adjusted according to the periodicity of your diagram.
