Well, I have a secret to tell you-"T.A." (as it is called by the "in crowd") is useless. "Cup and handles," "hanging Chinamen, "engulfing knickers," "tombstone dojis" -- you can fire them all in the waste bin because that is precisely where they belong.

I found it interesting that for him to get a clue to the next move in gold, he would have to "turn to the charts."
