Hello,
In the late 90's I meant George Lane at a Technical conference in San Francisco, he stated that he was walking the streets of Chicago and heard this big noise went into the building and they were trading Chicken eggs. Got him hooked. Stochastic comes from a science fiction book title that looked into the future. What was more interesting is Mr. Lane at that time was charging thousands for private mentorship and a person at the same table that took his stuff indicated that there was a lot more in 'Stochastics' than at first look. Indicting double tops/bottoms.

It is unique to technical analysis. The indicator was made and being used a little. But it was not named stochastics at that time. Someone supposedly made up that name after reading the name on some label on something. Lane was said to be the one who smoothed it and used mainly the %D for trading. Lane started working for a company that taught Elliot Wave, Gann, and other types of trading. I believe the company was started by a Ralph Dystant or something similar. He called the teaching company Investment Educators. I believe Lane took controll of the company before Ralphs death. The indicator that is now known as Stochastics was not used very much untill another trader that took courses at Investment Educators learned it and talked to someone at computer trac. And it has been well known ever since. I believe it was called %D back then. You can probably do a search for the names: Ralph Dystant Rick Redmont Tim Slater And more than you what to read or know. The line everyone likes and dreams about is what George Lane often said. I was a gopher when I first went to Investmant Educators to work and now I own Investment Educators. ----- Original Message ----- From: ohneclue <mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 2008 9:33 AM Subject: Re: [amibroker] Re: COPYRIGHT Stochastics is basically a mathematical differential equation used in all kinds of industries to do all kinds of things. It is not unique to the TA in the stock market analysis. If Lane bought him out, that was the ethical thing to do. But I always see everyone saying George C Lane is the originator of the stochastsics used for TA of stocks rather than he worked for someone and bought him out. That could be true, I just don't see any reference to that when I Google him. But what do I know.

It was the man Lane was working for and Lane later bought him out. Lane I believe though was the one who smoothed the stochastics. ----- Original Message ----- From: MAVIRK <mailto:[email protected]> To: amibro...@yahoogrou <mailto:[email protected]> ps.com Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2008 11:42 PM Subject: Re: [amibroker] Re: COPYRIGHT Can one use Stoch's with Mr. Lanes' Sefault Setting?

If someone publishes a formula and you optimize it and come up with different periods or apply it in a different way that is your work. Let me use an example to show the subtlety of this. Every car has an engine and transmission. Every different variation has a different patent. There may be only a small variation but you would not have to pry royalties on the new variation. You can do two things, publish it or patent it. Once you do either then the work you did is in the public domain and no one else can patent your work.

A good discussion is at http://en.wikipedia <http://en.wikipedia/> .org/wiki/ Copyrights. OF course this isn't official but it is an easier read than the law books. People like Wilder published his works so others could benefit from his discoveries. What the copyright laws do is prevent someone from copying his work and selling it. But the intellectual property he disclosed is for our use. Why else would he publish it?Barry--- In amibro...@yahoogrou ps.com <http://ps.com/> , "binjobingo" <binjobingo@ ...> wrote:>> Does referring to Wilder's Relative strength Indicator,or Lane's> Stochastics, or Chande's Vidya & so on lead to copyright violation?> > Say one reads An Author's book & am not able to write AFL for the> Indicators & so ask the forum members to write it for me Is it> copyright violation?> > If one give a link to the Website say some other website which> explains the parameters & use of the said "indicator" but the website> may not be owned by the Author himself does it lead to copyright> violation ?> > If it is so I think all the forums would close down & nobody would> discuss their trading strategy since trading strategies use some> Indicator by some author.> > > > > > > > ____________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _ > Drag n' drop-Get easy photo sharing with Windows LiveT Photos. > http://www.microsof t.com/windows/ windowslive/ photos.aspx <http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowslive/photos.aspx> >
