Not sure if it was posted here or not, but John Welles Wilder Jr. passed away a few weeks ago on April 18, 2021.

For me and so many others...this man stands alone when it comes to contributions to technical analysis.

Hats off to you sir and may you R.I.P.

Damn. He is one of those guys that I didn't know was still around, but that I have often thought about. He sort of belonged to another age and made a lot possible for later people with his work.

I agree with you about his importance. He was certainly important to me. I have his New Concepts book on my shelf still -- and bought it when it was still sort of new, and when it still made sense to set up worksheets where you pencil in the data and do calculations with a hand-held calculator (remember those?) And then post your charts by hand.

He will definitely be missed.

Bob.
