William Schmidt,
Creator of Tiger Software
Tiger Software was created in 1981 by William Schmidt.
It started on an Apple II+ with the writing of Peerless Stock Market Timing.
Price bands and Oscillator Non-Confirmations were his invention. In 1982,
he invented a way to compare each stocks' level of relative Accumulation
and Distribution. His Accumulation Index has been purloined, crudely
copied and misunderstood by quite a coterie of well-known intellectual
thieves. His software and books make heavy use of this original indicator.
The power of Peerless was never more evident than in 1987 when it called
the top in early October, just before the severe Crash that followed. The
power of Tiger's Accumulation Index has won loyal converts. As the years
went by, Tiger has developed many other highly original concepts and tools.
One of which is the "Tiger Day Traders' Tool" and its off-shoot, Tiger's
"Closing Power".
Thousands of traders and investors have used Tiger since 1981. Some
brought a lot of trading experience to bear on Tiger and others wanted
to learn how to make more money and how best to safeguard what they
already had.
It is a tribute to Tiger Software that many of our customers today have
used the software for more than 25 years!

Dissertation: "Role of Chancellor of Exchequer in British Cabinet Politics:
Case Studies of Polititical Power,: 1919-1937.
Dissertation Summary:
The number two man in the British Cabinet did not want to let spending
ministers get a positive public reputation and become his rivals to become
Prime Minister. In this way, the financial orthodoxy of the "City"
(Keep the Pound strong and balance the budget, whatever the cost.) had a
very willing ally as Chancellor of the Exchequer. And this is still true.
As a result, England stagnated economically, did not create public works jobs
in the Depression, despite Keynes being a well-known figure in London and
did not build up its Air Force in a timely way, when the Nazis threatened war.
Conclusion: It was the dynamics of Britain's Cabinet Political System, not
the sinister and selfish financial influence directly that prevented England from
escaping its decline in the inter-war years.

History is the only laboratory we have in which to test the consequences of thought. (Etienne Gilson)
The 1987 Crash Was Called Real-Time using the tools developed in William Schmidt's
Peerless Stock Market Timing of 1981. "Those who say the market cannot be timed, are the
very people who need to start using Peerless Stock Market Timing the most. History is not "more
or less, bunk" as Henry Ford said. (Ford also said: "Exercise is bunk.)
Rather, as Cervantes said, "History is in a measure a sacred thing, for it should be true,
and where the truth is, there God is".
"History" is a Greek word which means, literally, just "investigation." (Arnold Toynbee)
History is organized memory, and the organization is all-important. (Henry Steele Commager)
History is the intellectual form in which a civilization renders account to itself of its past. (Johann Huizinga)
