anyone saying "markets always retrace to about the 50% level" has no business posting about how the market functions. If that were a true, always rule, then EVERYONE could wait for it to hit a near bottom/top, and wait for the 50% or so retrace and bank your profits. Yes, markets...

This won't even interest the fakes...

If you cannot outperform with good system stats (Sharpe, Profit Factor, max DD, etc) then no matter what you do you are wasting your time. But if for some unlike reason you DO do this, Go on to places like TimerTrac.com, Collective2.com, Theta Research, TimerDigest, StrategyRunner.com...

This if course, has nothing to do with anything. Hitler was also a lunatic and mass murderer in dictator's clothing. I am no fan of Obama, as half a conservative Republican and half a Libertarian. But drawing parallels like this is sheer stupidity.

Yes, ya gotta love Hoboken... 2 NJ mayors, lawmaker arrested in corruption case NEWARK, N.J. – The mayors of two New Jersey cities and a state legislator are under arrest Thursday as part of a major corruption and international money laundering conspiracy probe. Federal...

This is not true. I have watched MANY systems of others crash precisely when a large move happens, precisely on this assumption. Unleveraged stock trading, maybe. Leveraged trading, your assumption is only true until it blows up. The market does NOT revert 50%. Leveraged trading...

ML would never hire anyone without a background check on criminal and financial. That is not the way it works in the real world. All the major financial institutions background check, and their HR do not hire without a hiring manager telling them to do so.

take nothing this poster says seriously. He already move to a new thread, after starting a "0.5K to $100K thread." everything he posts is not to be believed.

I think Goldman Sachs and MS keep forgetting they are owned by STOCKholders. A couple of years ago, GS distributed $16 billion, or $600,000 per employee. They did not need to "do this" to retian their people. Few others are "doing this." People will not be bolting. Bear, Lehman and...

even the doctors have debunked this idea.

is TO AVOID proof RUN AWAY from auditing and cast DISPERSIONS And funny, the first sentence of this thread: I am 24 single, still live at home with parents. Could apply to Jack, except add 50 years...

so true. It takes a while to realize it is all about Risk-Adjusted Reward. You can make 100% a month on leveraged instruments. All you have to do is be able to deal with 100% drawdowns several times a month :D

Based on the pattern here, and probable use of another alias (sorry, several of us didn't buy it). You left a previous gig? You left out this out before. You sounded like you went from unemployed to this firm. You sound you had a previous felony or were involved in one, and left that...

In the very likely scenario this account goes underwater (Risk of Ruin is nearly 100% for everyone, given enough time) and given you are leveraged trading... Everyone making profits thinks they are clever until their ship hits the North Atlantic iceberg... Is this person going to expect...

Ummm. pretty much anyone trading futures and options and forex are free to trade whatever they want, long or short.

So THIS is BlackGuard

However, this remains only a theory unless it it put under rigorous testing. My experience is that people who add on even partially, wind up pounding several system trade statistics they may not think about. For example, everytime you increase your positions/leverage, your average drawdown...

Also edited for brevity. No one can say less with as many words as the grate Jack Hershey (grate - as in what he does to the nerves) There must be lot of good in Jack, because little of it escapes...

the purpose of the Economics forum is not to get other people to buy in that you are smart. And now "you have the ear of influential people." No one here cares about how brilliant you consider yourself. So far, both threads look like you are trolling for attention and applause. Why...
