Why Traders Should Play Video Games

WHY TRADERS SHOULD PLAY VIDEO GAMES

Last week for my birthday I received a PS3 (Playstation 3 Video Game console
for those who live on a planet other than Earth).

It’s very cool.

Of course, then I needed the latest 1080p TV to play it on. So I bought that
today … 56 beautiful inches of DLP.

Then, you don’t want to invest all that money, only to have your experience
ruined by a sub par sound system. So I invested in a nice Sony surround
sound system as well.

Gosh, you’d think I was 12.

Stochastics ... do they work?

Stochastics is not a new oscillator. The idea was originated by a Czechoslavakian and perfected by Dr. George Lane, editor and publisher of Investment Educators in Skokie, Illinois.

Before George passed away, I had the privilege of meeting him personally and discussing his stochastic theory. George was quite a character and his work on Stochastic's is a tremendous contribution to the world of investing. It was his life's work and I think this lesson is a fitting tribute to George.

Because this lesson contains charts, it has been posted
here.

Enjoy.
