Yeah, for some reason my hometown doesn't catch too many of the question-mark guy's infomercials these days, mostly we get Ron Popeil and Carlton Sheets (five bucks says that's an assumed name) and the buttheads at "Wizetrade", who peddle their idiot "black-box" stock-trading software.

The local countercultural, left-wing rag did a vivisection of the "Wizetrade" guys, and uncovered a can of maggots. They're all con artists and BS artists..... have to say the little wingo creeps did a public service. These are guys walking around pretending to be "successful business consultants" who never held an honest job in their lives, the kind of guys who would be at home in a carny midway. And as the ink-stained leftist wretches pointed out, they can't answer the question, "if this 'trading system' is so hot, why are you guys buying acres of insomniac air time peddling it to us?"

Which is a killer question. Hey, this is a "technical" trading system, right? If it's the middle of the night here, hell, Tokyo's open, why aren't they trading the Nikkei stocks? Why aren't they trading Hong Kong stocks and the Straits Times Index down in Singapore? They can't tell you, because there's no answer.

Or maybe Asian stocks are .... "different." Maybe instead of trading up-and-down, they trade sideways instead.
