    Since you replied to my conversation; allow me to clarify, as it seems there are some misunderstandings
    I never said, nor implied that you do need such an indicator. In fact,
    I repeatedly said that no such indicator exists, which implies, to most people--I would think, that you don't need it.
    I thought the implications were clear. I thought everyone knew this. Maybe some have a non-standard definition of the word, 'know.' But no indicator can 'know' the future.

    You mention 'remarks' about lagging indicators. Since you've included these remarks in your reply to my reply to another; I'll treat them as though they are also a direct reply to me.
    I never said nor implied that lag was a problem.

    Most data is lagging. Even the current price can technically be lagging as your brain, or your algo processes it--it could have updated already.

    :) I agree.

    But it would be very helpful if an indicator that knows the future would exist/be found...

    You're gonna need a flux capacitor for that.

    And just how do you think you'll produce the 1.21 gigawatts of electricity you'd need to power the flux capacitor? A bolt of lightning?

    Sorry, but in 2021 you can't just go to your local drug store and buy plutonium. You'd have to get it from the Libyans!

    Watch Back to the Future documentary movie.

    So Userque is another one that has me on ignore. Something has changed with the /ignore feature. I can smell it.

    If that is true, why did you not laff at my insanely clever and funny quip in response to your flux capacitor comment? roffle.
