    What could possibly kill gold? Name one

    Charts Patterns are not correct

    For clean charts I suggest rolling your own from scratch in excel with closing or last prices only. I use a REDI+ addin and check closing/last sales with yahoo for a double check next day. Its not for the lazy though. I have 10 issues with several time frames that I adjust every morning...

    Why do America's police need an armored tank?

    How to Exploit Randomness

    From a purely mechanical point of view I agree. But from my personal experience a human trader with enough screen time can cherry pick events. After awhile you just know whats noise and whats not. Or maybe I am not thinking truly random. Too much screen time for me to believe anything in...

    How to Exploit Randomness

    Yes it is. I think many people overlook this cliche and disregard it because they do not know how to define trend. I could easily give another trader my definition. But they would fail with it because we do not have the same model, timeframe and psychology. If you want to exploit...

    How do you estimate future option price?

    Cannot disagree. If you plan on even looking at options buy a basic book and learn. You should at least read this - http://www.amazon.com/Options-Strategic-Investment-Lawrence-McMillan/dp/0735201978/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1298994660&sr=1-7 He breaks it down really in laymans...

    study: selling puts outperforms covered calls.

    It’s not a very enlightening piece as equity markets have gone up much more often than down on the timeframe of the study. Master of the obvious type stuff imo. People don’t pay for "seeking alpha" do they?

    Hypothetical question

    All fair points. I do think they would know me and the firm after initial interview. There would be plenty of institutional support. Please re-read the OP. There would be a base plus all support. Of course this is all hypothetical still Thanks much for taking the time.

    Hypothetical question

    I agree with much if what you said, but tend to disagree on the mediocre performers. Someone who can make 1% a month with minimal correlation to a long only portfolio is gold to many institutions. Your at 10mm in your book - you clock 1.2mm min - you have taken home 340k - with much bigger...
