Citation? I've made profit without ever looking at a screening tool or doing technical analysis.

Citation?

Analysts do tons of technical analysis and fail to beat SPY. Buffet himself even made a Long Bet with someone to this point. I'm surprised you'd use him as an example...

I just mentioned the S&P500 as an example of a filter. S&P500 is what SPY consists of.

Also, filter != technical analysis. Filters can work on any indicator. I use them on fundamentals, as do Buffet, Munger, Graham, Dodd.
