    What's the difference between trader and portfolio manager?

    You're just very funny and simplistic in your limited thinking. Be happy.

    why this board isn't healthy if you trade for a living

    Yeah... I always wondered why you titled that curve with the number 1000 and the word" stocks". I must have posted that humor 50 times so far. Congrats, you finally got the humor in your title. By the bye. Mostly everyone sees that anyone can use the beginner level of anything to go...

    why this board isn't healthy if you trade for a living

    Obviously 666 didn't come up with a good example. He may be a person who is a conversationalist about what he has read or gleened from others but reasoning and understanding is not his bag as yet. Making over a tenth of 1 percent a day on average was never anything to cheer about. However...

    why this board isn't healthy if you trade for a living

    My position on trading is that about anyone is capable of trading. There is no dark side. Making 16,000 percent in 18 years is an example of an organizations performance. It is between 10 and 11 doublings of capital in 18 years, roughly. That is what it looks like to me. 18 years is 1/3...

    why this board isn't healthy if you trade for a living

    So Eckhardt is handicapped. No one else has to be, however. The several alternatives include: 1. Forward testing.... 2. Designing and using a paradigm that eliminates probability. 3. Using leading indicators of what is traded.... 4. Automating systems based upon the scientific...

    increasing, decreasing, continuing and changing

    As we go to traverses we will begin to bring in the leading indicators of price so there is no longer any mystery in checking out pur and perfect annotating. As we go we will be adding contracts. Obviously if we can do an order of magnitude in PVT in less than 100 days* we can do an order of...

    increasing, decreasing, continuing and changing

    I have only shown the beginning of the time Gucci holds to go from his opening entry to the FTT of the channel. We know on an M day or a W day it is a hold of many bars and a lot of things happen in between. For a beginner in SCT it is an eventful period and we saw in boot camp that it was...

    increasing, decreasing, continuing and changing

    More on batting practice. we learned that MADA is a routine with closure each lap. we also worked during M to annotate Vand P. We learned to build from tapes to traverses to channels. the day begins with an entry on the Synch when we Know the market sentiment and use it for the entry...

    increasing, decreasing, continuing and changing

    The last element or concept is that money is made through price change. This is evident on the P&L but we do not use it in the paradigm in any way. As you saw in the Cash Cow and its ATS's there is no price component. We use the envelpes of price but we do not meausre price differences to...

    increasing, decreasing, continuing and changing

    What is the trading strategy? We take the markets offer by staying on the right side of the market. From time to time the market tells us a new profit segment is beginning with the advent of a new trend. At first we only bat on a channel level since there are only a few times at bat daily...

    increasing, decreasing, continuing and changing

    The year that was spent journalling the SCT was divided into parts. Originally the syllabus was set to do a topic a month. That arrangement was dropped very soon and we put in another month per topic. The parametric measuring was done in months 1 and 2 to get the annotation tooling...

    increasing, decreasing, continuing and changing

    The first effort we make is to stay on the right side of the market using the hypothesis: If volume in increaseing, then the price trend is continuing. w use a chart with volume and price and annotate the volume and annotate the price according to the parametric measure of the...

    increasing, decreasing, continuing and changing

    Thank you for the inquiry. Cycling in stocks occasionally has it quirks. So it is good to be awate of the possibilities. Failure to breakout is one of them for any pattern. Unusual volume is a breakout trading method. The column heading first appreaed on Qcharts a while back. It purpose...

    As you get around to examining your rules and your strategy, you will see that you are using the SAME strategy all of the time. The market is offering a lot more than you take from its offer. All days are not alike and it is a good idea to differentiate according to what is going on. For...

    Does the futures has any influence over the cash index ?

    This is top gun humor to people who do any testing of markets. Really funny. What you proved is that you post statistically insignificant curves. Someone should use this curve in stat 001 as an example of a royal fuckup. Stick with the cartoons and photoshopping.

    Does the futures has any influence over the cash index ?

    trader 666 et al. Roughtrader is doing a normal development of a system he has invented. It has run for a short whle with little capital deployeed in the market and a good size account available for ramping up when he gets to that stage of development. His rule of thumb for this is...
