Sure. My complaint is independent of predictability, it's about the disconnect of TA from established principles of science (objectivity and reproducible research) and the abuse of established terminology. One example is when the description is vague or cannot be the same for everyone. An example that comes to mind is 45-degree angles on charts ("Gann angles"? Not sure what they are called), which are extremely sensitive to changes in the scale of the Y-axis! Another is the use of the word "stochastics" for a TA indicator that has nothing to do with what the word "stochastic" means in established research. (Also found someone using "Gaussian" recently to lend an air of sophistication to his idea, which has nothing to do with Gaussian distributions as understood by anyone else!). But heck, at least stochastics are expressed using an objective formula.
