    how do i prevent making same mistakes?

    Most trend followers of note do not do anything remotely; they are in the limelght a lot of the time. So I agree with you, they do not do anything remotely. They do not talk in a way that sounds like speech but conveys no actual meaning. Most all trend followers of note follow the...

    Foreclosures: 'Worst three months of all time'

    Draw a RE systems diagram and include all the feedback loops. Apply various econ theories and orientations. Start from the very conservative and then proceed to the newer (maybe untested) theories. Krugman (06SEP09) is a good reference for slipping the spectrum of econ theories into your...

    Do markets change? Trend Following.

    It seems like a lot of these people have something to learn since they have not fallen in line with the very authoritative and explite opinion first expressed. Below is today's market and it is evident that doing the X and Y thing seems to work.. The saucer ended and trending began. Count...

    how do i prevent making same mistakes?

    The combination of your two posts explains, on a trade, how things go for you. You have backtested and discovered that your targets are on the mark. What thei means is that you have a mental or geometric picture of trading cycles and you trade both ways on that market cycle from one extreme to...

    Michael Moore Kills Capitalism With Kool-Aid

    Trendfollowing and economics is not your forte. Probably, it is a matter of education and background. Michael Moore is a documentary film maker with a purpose to make money in that industry. You did a documentary as well that is in the form of a distributed DVD. The teasers, etc were typical...

    Michael Moore Kills Capitalism With Kool-Aid

    I'm not much of a messenger. 4 out of 5 do not agree with me, either. For me and a few others, your review and Michael Moore's movies are not important. But there is something else. I mentioned dealing out of principle and helping others. One of the small results is econometric downside...

    Michael Moore Kills Capitalism With Kool-Aid

    This is a vendor thread from an OP who vends Books and DVDs. I am biased. The only time I ever called a publisher was in response to reading a handed down copy of "Trendfollowing". I am an amateur trader and I have been employed as an expert in several and diverse fields. Among other...

    I don't know....I just feel so inspired....... I want to write a series of childrens books where happy little animals discuss econ theory and Nobel prizes and how well economists took care of their habitats. I can think of how children can approach mind building as being land developers...

    How much $ did you lose until you made $ trading ?

    Thank you for reading my posts in every thread I infiltrate. And thank you for your pertinent and focussed question. Bentedge, I really enjoy your use of convolute given your handle (a skiing term, I presume). Your instructions to me are nice but I am just answering Q's and not...

    what indicators do you use?

    I'm sure you are correct in your views. I really didn't know as much as you do about the OP or others. Of course, there are many more than 7 trades in the market for that period of time. The rough limit would be 6 to 7 times the range shown and the value is a market determined value not a...

    How much $ did you lose until you made $ trading ?

    The whole paradigm gave you a complete system in which the market operates. This also includes the trader activity part too. The system is composed of a few parts: 1. The pool extraction hypothesis set and its parametric set of measures. A deductive system. Four operator words...
