It's all about accounting.
That's why technical analysis is so popular. You need 0 skills to do it. All you need to do is look at a zittery line and say some really silly sounding stuff like: I think the MA is crossing over the 1.5 relative strength index, bouncing off its support line and blah blah blah.... therefore I think this makes a good investment and would recommend a buy now!!! LMFAO!
Nuts. Utterly bonkers. There is no other way describing it.
I might just as well throw some bones on the floor.
