Coin flip is a random strategy with a 50% win probability over the long run. As long as you cut your losses and let your profits run, with a 50% system you come out ahead. Alternating entry/exits is different than a wholly random entry. You're comparing apples to oranges.

TT is going after small trade platform operators who can't defend themselves. I hope someone big challenges their "patents" and invalidates them. I'm sure they were'nt the first to come up with the DOM idea.
