2009.09.10 DRAIN THE BANKS - LIKE A RAT
"Look, for example, at this elegant little experiment. A rat was put in a T-shaped maze with a few morsels of food placed on either the far right or left side of the enclosure. The placement of the food is randomly determined, but the dice is rigged: over the long run, the food was placed on the left side sixty per cent of the time. How did the rat respond? It quickly realized that the left side was more rewarding. As a result, it always went to the left, which resulted in a sixty percent success rate. The rat didn't strive for perfection. It didn't search for a Unified Theory of the T-shaped maze, or try to decipher the disorder. Instead, it accepted the inherent uncertainty of the reward and learned to settle for the best possible alternative.
The experiment was then repeated with Yale undergraduates. Unlike the rat, their swollen brains stubbornly searched for the elusive pattern that determined the placement of the reward. They made predictions and then tried to learn from their prediction errors. The problem was that there was nothing to predict: the randomness was real. Because the students refused to settle for a 60 percent success rate, they ended up with a 52 percent success rate. Although most of the students were convinced they were making progress towards identifying the underlying algorithm, they were actually being outsmarted by a rat."

The two FREE multimeters are tro multimeter candle color and tro multimeter control.
TRO_HL5 (FREE) plots the horizontal lines at the top and bottom of the last 24 H1 candles.
The other indicators, TRO2009_MP_HLC and TRO2009_MP_HLC_MAX are DONATIONAL.

You get donational indicators whenever I send out a new batch. Sent a batch out today.
Which indicator are you inquiring about?
There is no "Rat Method". The rat always turns left.

Nice and simple.
I think people underestimate the power of the "asian box" also.

TRO,
could you post a template for "DTB Like a Rat", please.
There are no such indicators, as TRO2009_MP_HLC and TRO2009_MP_HLC_MAX - even in your donational list
(including last batch from today).
Also, I'm not sure, how to trade this.
For example, from your last chart - where to go long:
at 131.545 or at 131.745?
If at 131.745 - why to show the whole blue rectangle then,
isn't just blue horizontal line at 131.745 is not enough?

Hi RumpledOne, 
can you please modify this buy sell alert accordingly as below ?
1. the barn formed should be alerted live. (i.e the x star mark formed)
currently this x buy sell alert forms but i dont know why this doesnt appear live when it appears ?
i am willing to pay you a small donation for your hard work and appreciation.
and also if you like to modify this indicator according to your imagination or with a unique patented style please feel free to do so...
regards,
steve
