Assuming that is the highest form/ level of edge and you have attained that, are you saying you would never have had any fear of losing the edge anymore after proving that works (and how long for the fear lasting after proving it works?)?

I'm afraid the best edge among all would be how fast/ soon we could detect, in a systematic way, the losing of efficiency for the existing edge(s) before losing too much capital particularly when using a relatively high leverage in order to generate maximum possible profits.

Seems nobody would have experienced this kind of fear before, except me and myself?! Great!!! :D

How about preempt my edge by 1 week? Is that good enough? :D

Good thinking indeed! Would that be possible your broker simply adds much more quantity on top of your orders?

Do you mean diversification with several edges? How do you know in advance all the edges could never be high correlated one day, hence becoming inefficient at the same time?

What are they, preferably with any examples or further elaboration? Thanks.

Have you ever had any experience (at any moment at all?) of the fear for worrying your trading edge would become inefficient in the near future? What would you do to prepare for it? How to overcome it, technically (such as starting a hedge fund) and/or psychologically? Or do you think...

Perhaps your best partner for trading would be a computer - a working one of course. :D

I know there is one thing on earth called computers.

Trading can be a serious and profitable business, as many claim before. And there would be no any single trader could make profits forever according to the reflexivity theory of market dynamics, particularly under whatever dramatic market conditions. Another objective for a trading...

That idea of trading this way has been proved so far a very bad idea indeed. PS: Doing it on ET is OK. But Don't do that at home. :D :D

I think Oanda should speed up the following useful and important feature soonest. Otherwise, its competitor Collective2 would be even better than the FXManager platform for now. Perhaps that's why a couple of FX managers while using FXManager are still also using Collective2 till now. "Q...

Probably right! :D

That's truly great! Is that based on any leverage at all? Any projection on drawdowns?

Add quantity for a second lot now: Sell EUR/USD 1.471 Buy EUR/GBP 1.949 Now total two lots.

What are the best investments/ opportunities (property ?!) due to this inflation, assuming it's real and coming?

My guess is all major profitable traders with systematic approaches must have their individual edges. However, the whole game in financial markets, imo, is the question of How Fast one can Detect the degrading of the existing edge and How Well one can Polish it to identify/ meet any...

Indeed! :)

"And therefore, in order for a system to "work", it must be changed, and therefore, by definition, they don't "work". " A very good and practical point indeed. I totally agree.
