Nice analysis. :)

Actually I think a lot of things can be made. You may have some potentials when you are born, but you still need to develop and expand your potentials. Even if you don't have potentials, it just mean you just lag behind, you can always make up for what you are missing, unless you are not...

Why do you use mental stops, as opposed to physical stops? Thank you.

It will surely happen when I look like this on one day (see attachment). :D :cool: :p :)

Sorry for my ignorance. What's "anti-jack trading"? Who's Jack? Where can I know more about this guy? Why anti-jack? :p

What do you mean by "depedent on entry"? So are you using fixed % or fixed point?

Hi. Do you use stop-loss orders at all? Feel free to cast your vote! :) (Explain you choice in the post if you see the need) Thank you very much for your participation! PS: A similar poll is created too, named What stop-loss strategies do you use?

Hi. What stop-loss strategies do you use? Do you use tight or wide stop-loss? Do you use mental stop-loss? Feel free to cast your vote! :) (Explain you strategy in the post if you see the need) Thank you very much for your participation! PS: A similar poll is created too, named "Do...

JimmyJam, From the sound of it, it seems you still don't beleve what they say. By the way, I don't like investing on others, since as you said previously, good automated systems don't ever need to be sold.

Yes, you are right. I'm burning severely now. I don't realise autotrading can be so profitable WITH low drawdown AND low losing streak. How could that be possible? I'm too ignorant. :( I have once tried to backtest some of my crude auotmated systems. They are profitable in long-term, but...

My mistake. :( I should have been drunk at that time. :p

That's perfectly fine. Just keep the markets, strategies, of the system in deep secret. It's amazing your friend's system has no 2-day losing streak and has a low drawdown. It's very hard to achieve even for a manual trader. After all thanks for your contributions.

I see some trader keeps fxxking about the screen or price or advice (given by outside source) or brokers or everyone (except him) when it gets a bad day. I just make one :( and live with it. :D

Oh I see! As to the case of Marty Schwartz, it seems he is still calm (in mind). It's just his action is emotional. The yelling and screaming helps him to keep his mind calm. Anyway, I feel we're talking about more or less the really same idea, with different wording.

I think once the system is developed, it's very leisure to trade with it. Just throwing money into it. Maybe babysit it once in a while. Maybe make a review once in a while. Why do you say it's a myth?

So it's about 7-fold for half year. If the return rate remains unchanged, it's going to be 14-fold a year (simple, NOT compounding). How about its total maximum drawdown within half year? Where do you hear about this system? I start to wonder why I need to manual trade so hard, in which...

It's interesting to hear someone even said "A good trader will stay calm?" with a question mark. Will you regard a trader who is not disciplined at all is good? Will you regard a trader, who have no plans in mind; only act on impulse, is good?

It's because I feel automated trading can boost me into another new level. Probably I will both manual and auotmated trading. Auotmated trading can do something which I can't - trade at different markets at the same time; trade 24 hours a day. What's more, automated trading seems to be one...

Do you imply there's no resource outside which ever tells about the performance of the best automated system around? PS: Yes, just the performance! That's what I wish to know, but not others like methodology. Just curious to know. :)

Any more?
