Does GS Use TA!?!

I saw a picture on the GS S&T career section webpage that had a computer screen with a few charts in the background. I remember Jim Cranmer, I know he wasn't a trader, talking a lot about TA in his books. Dose anyone still believe in TA?

There was a thread on this a while back where the OP had been trolled bad. Can't find it, oh well.

Anyhow, of course traders use technical analysis to a degree. The majority of traders probably have charts up. Are they looking for a "golden cross of Camelot" to put on a massive long? No. Do they keep an eye on the charts to know where are good entry and exit points, or even simply have a visual representation of where the market's been? Probably so.
