As most people here are losers - by never disputed common wisdom - how can these claim 10% back from those charities?

what contract are you talking about?

He must have skipped classes in Chicago when they were talking about them naked puts. :D

This is truly amazing! In my book, "existing traders or wannabes deciding what they really want is to be a winner", is FAR FROM SUFFICIENT! :D

Why bother with nagging about pushing an edge to it's edge? BTW, a profit ratio of 1.37 would scare the sh*t out of me. It's a guaranteed ride to the poorhouse. :D THE PERFECT EDGE is simply an edge that always wins, never loses. :)

Slavery Reparations Gaining Momentum Yeah, I'm all for it. But who's going to pay them reparations? The Arabs who caught them and rounded them up at the place of origin? The French who did the major part of the shipping to the "New World"? Not with a penny of my tax money though. My...

Considering Neural Networks, it first must be pointed out that NN is in itself highly diverse. Not simply a matter of the number of nodes and layers. For a deeper understanding, look at the book by C.M. Bishop and the book by B.D. Ripley. In developing a trading strategy, one has many...

This is an economic pipe-dream. von Mises in his book "Human action" was perhaps the first to give a fully sensible explanation for the above phenomena and how these are caused by the way people act in those circumstances.

Trading for profit a fools game? You learned something very valuable. Your question: "that one can actually make money consistently trading?" should be replied to with YES. It will take much more work than gullible easy-goers ever can dream of.

:confused: :D :confused:

Sounds to me like what I used to call "Money Making While ya Sleep" boxes. :D

That's a simpleton's explanation. In fact the Gold Standard didn't "break down" at all. It was wrecked by the stupidity of the US government in believing that the dollar was and would remain supreme. After having prohibited US citizens a few years before from owning and trading in gold...

don't exist. got to write your own.

Trader Personality & Trading Performance No psycho mumbo jumbo needed to answer this one. There are basically 2 what you call "Trader Personalities": WINNERS and LOSERS. WINNERS are those able to pull more money out of the market than the amount they put in; LOSERS are those forced to...

Better start reading what his role model Hayek & von Mises had to say about this.

Scalping, Daytrading, Swingtrading, without distinction these all TRY to accomplish the same thing: SQUEEZE SOME MONEY OUT OF THE MARKET. If you try for 10 years to distinguish between the above "methodologies", in all likelihood you will still be a loser. If you work pretty hard for 10...

The Meaning of Life You can't discuss "meaning" unless you find out for yourself of how and why you got here and ... where you're going to.

It sounds like you you constantly loose money in whatever you call "my swing trading". Why don't you stick to daytrading?

WmWaster, You seem to be a fast learner coming up with the above question. Now think twice. If you would have a system making 1155% in 46 or (only) 299% in 37 weeks, would you make this available for $150 a month? By now you must have found the answer. :cool:

I wouldn't dear to call those 14 strategies "profitable" given the information that "occasionally these systems break" and need constant "re-tweaking". I agree with you that developing automated systems is a lot of work. I have only ONE SINGLE system but I worked about 10 years on it.
