    CAVEAT MERCATOR (Traders Beware)

    Alan has been most generous in providing the daCharts community with details of his methodology. However, he is a trader; so common courtesy (at least) would strongly suggest that you not contact him during trading hours with questions.

    In addition, this is a work in progress. Additional documentation will appear as it is completed. Please try to hold the questions on uncovered material, and wait for Alan (who is a volunteer) and those helping document his methods (who are also volunteers) to analyze and write.

    Join us in Bline room and listen as we put the documentation together. Alan usually answers questions on what is covered at the end. PMs make it hard also as he is now (1) interrupted and (2) answering the same question over and over instead of answering once in the room for all.

    It would be sad for Alan after giving so generously of his time and knowledge to think that he had opened a Pandora's box, rather than sitting back with the warm glow of having helped other traders.
