In stock trading or sports betting, recognizing trends before they become obvious to the public is a crucial winning concept. This analysis starts by looking at price performance over a longer time frame than public generally uses.

Interesting article. I have always looked for trends when handicapping. Right now I see the Pistons really startng to play well defensively. Ben Wallace is back and Chauncy Billups has found his game. I look for them to hold teams in the low to mid 80s on a regular basis.

Figures, I know Rasheed was scratched before the game. Anyway it's a long season.


AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) Detroit Pistons forward Rasheed Wallace sat out Friday night's game against the Atlanta Hawks due to a sore right hamstring.



Wallace, averaging 12.6 points and 6.9 rebounds, was replaced by Elden Campbell in the starting lineup. With Antonio McDyess (calf) also sidelined, Darko Milicic was expected to be the first big man off the bench for the Pistons.

Atlanta is up 18 (56-38) at the half. If you took the 15 points, you would be up 33 points at halftime.

trends are silly.......like the last 8 meeting between the pistons and celtics has ended in an odd # for each team's score.....silly.

Sherman the article is not talking about those type of trends. He is saying if a bettor can identify a team on an upward or downward trend there is money to made. Take the Sonics for example who are clearly trending upward, if a bettor noticed this trend 2 or 3 weeks ago and bet that way he would be winner to the trend.

A trend is a trend no matter how you slice, it's like looking for a Pot O gold, it won't happen....

more times than not, the trend is your friend.... some that trade commodities will know this, ever get in front of a soybean train? it is not pretty, much better to ride them for all their worth.... higher high's mean higher prices, lower lows mean lower prices.... lower highs and higher lows tend to show a reversal in trends (commodity trading 101).....
