10 of the Worlds Most Powerful Trading Rules:

A threadЁЯз╡ЁЯСЗ

2. Your trading system must be built on quantifiable facts not opinions.
3. Start with the weekly price chart to establish the long term trend, and then work down through the daily and hourly charts to trade in the direction of that trend. The odds are better if you are trading in the direction of the long term trend.
4. The more times a support or resistance level is tested, the greater the odds that it will be broken. Old resistance can become the new support, and the old support may become the new resistance.
5. Moving averages can quantify trends and create signals for entries, exits, and trailing stops.
6. Bull Markets have no long term resistance, and Bear Markets have no long term support.
7. тАЬThe larger the market gaps, the greater the odds of continuation and a trend.тАЭ тАУ Linda Raschke
8. тАЬAs long as a market is having consecutive strong closes, look for an up-trend to continue. The up trend is most likely to end when there is a morning rally first, followed by a weak close.тАЭ тАУ Linda Raschke
9. Above the 200 day moving average is where bulls create uptrends. Bad things happen below the 200 day moving average; downtrends, distribution, bear markets, crashes, and bankruptcies.
10. тАЬIt is much easier to watch a few than many.тАЭ тАУ Jesse Livermore

The legacy site's CSS is what happens when hundreds of people directly write CSS over many years. Specificity wars, redundancy, a house of cards that can't be fixed. The result is extremely inefficient and error-prone styling that punishes users and developers.

The PWA's CSS is generated on-demand by a JS framework that manages styles and outputs "atomic CSS". The framework can enforce strict constraints and perform optimisations, which is why the CSS is so much smaller and safer. Style conflicts and unbounded CSS growth are avoided.

I just finished Eric Adler's The Battle of the Classics, and wanted to say something about Joel Christiansen's review linked below. I am not sure what motivates the review (I speculate a bit below), but it gives a very misleading impression of the book. 1/x


The meat of the criticism is that the history Adler gives is insufficiently critical. Adler describes a few figures who had a great influence on how the modern US university was formed. It's certainly critical: it focuses on the social Darwinism of these figures. 2/x

Other insinuations and suggestions in the review seem wildly off the mark, distorted, or inappropriate-- for example, that the book is clickbaity (it is scholarly) or conservative (hardly) or connected to the events at the Capitol (give me a break). 3/x

The core question: in what sense is classics inherently racist? Classics is old. On Adler's account, it begins in ancient Rome and is revived in the Renaissance. Slavery (Christiansen's primary concern) is also very old. Let's say classics is an education for slaveowners. 4/x

It's worth remembering that literacy itself is elite throughout most of this history. Literacy is, then, also the education of slaveowners. We can honor oral and musical traditions without denying that literacy is, generally, good. 5/x
