Clueless no doubt. He should change his forum name to HalfDeck.

I've never been able to structure a viable trading model around perceived overbought/oversold indications regardless of the tool. Same goes for chart patterns. I work strictly with price and momentum within specific time series, using volatility studies to handicap entry/risk/reward, actively...

Or stops too close

That's where the rubber meets the road. Even if the positions are sized right, it can be death by a thousand cuts.

Agree here. Unless you can statistically prove to yourself otherwise, you're in the dark, and best just to let the market run. Stop adjustments need to be done properly though, and not that easy to do.

No. You're unbelievable. I've made more in a year with pencil and paper than you'll probably make your entire life. Everything is a tool.

Probably his tranny lover

This is a fallacy. If we truly knew highs/lows then achieving high win rates without using stops could easily be executed.

Mathematically define them:thumbsup:

I'm sorry my friend, but you're wrong. It's actually very lucrative if you align yourself properly. I'd instantly give up a couple million USD if you can give me 20 years of my life back.

I trade intraday fluctuations with my own money, and my advice is to stay away. I've become a psychotic retard with no desire to socialize. The money means nothing now that my soul is sucked away. Once you find an edge, and properly manage trades, there is no end to how much data you can...

Losers worry about other people. Winners worry about themselves.

Walk forward real-time trades with small bet sizing, followed by software backtesting, then compare.
