Hey Kenny,

Glad to hear from you and thank you for the compliments I am glad you are finding the site useful.

As there are so many people with so many experience levels and viewpoints involved in the development of the strategy, we are having to take things one small step at a time in order to keep things organized and from becoming overly confusing.

With this in mind I definitely think that a contrarian viewpoint can add a lot of value to the system, and we are definately going to need to consider the points that you have outlined below. You can find the strategy document we are working off of below. Right now we are in phase one but when we get to phases two and three I think that will be the appropriate time to begin discussion on some of the points you have raised below:

David,
From all the sites I have visited in this grand cyber-world, I must extend the props for your work (and dedication) in an effort to educate and to enlist strategist. You have, sir, done a fine job of it.

Myself, I have more of a contrarian viewpoint, that may be considered abstract to normal training ideals, but may prove to be useful in your effort to develope a strategy. I have read your posts and note you are swing trader. May I inquire, so I may contribute to your and the memberships objectives, have you factored a hold time vs. risk/reward and if so, what is that limit or how are you computing your target level to time factor. I do not wish to violate any of your objectives and know not the appropriate area to breach such topics.. notably as stated, my concepts are not that of mainsteam and my analytics are based on a "more likely than not" approach with Trendlines, Accumulation/Distribution Support areas and Technical Stop Loss Strikes and Reversals which you may be able to work into a swing trade. It is somewhat counter-intuitive tho. But I am sure it is NOT what you would have in mind for your Developing the Informed System Outlines.. unless you viewed the abstract first and then incorporate technicals.

Thanks for your attention.. Sorry to be so long winded. Have a wonderful and productive day.
