I think the Asian/healthy food franchises (beef/chicken/tofu + rice etc) are fantastic. But the frozen fruit bowl priced at $12-13 type thing, have a hard time seeing that work

Right but there's different shades of grey in the food franchise model. Buying a McDonalds franchise is not the same thing as buying a lesser proven concept such as a "healthy foods" franchise. MCD covers the gamut in terms of price points (mostly lower), but a lot of healthy foods franchises...

a bad case of filthyrich-ititis, brah

Thanks Jarym. What version of MC do you have? I can't believe they don't offer it, the code can't be much more than a simple conditional/if statement... so disappointing.

Disgusting and shameful. Paul Tudor Jones has it right: the only way to save the benefits of capitalism is ethical/just capitalism. Left to itself, it will destroy itself through its greed.

Hi, Looking at a couple of things: #1: The wicks on candlesticks can only be set to one color? In Ensign and TradingView for example, one can set the wicks to be green if the bar is green and red if the bar is red. But that option does not seem to be there in Multicharts. #2: MACD histogram...

with the exception of 2-3 shops out of thousands, quants don't make money and likely never will. Now if you're talking coding as a job (not actually trading) then yes, makes a bit more sense. So would suggest your kids learn how to think critically. When they're young, chess is a good place to...

https://www.gurufocus.com/guru/john+hussman/profile Compared to John Hussman, IBD50 looks like superman, wouldn't you say? In other words, I'll lose your money at a 10% CAGR, but hey, I'm uncorrelated to the market so please keep my fund alive... o_O

Hi KCOJ, Thanks for your post. How do you think about win % rates, avg win/avg loss ratios and trade frequency?

Dest, congrats on your success. You had mentioned elsewhere that you couldn't do what you do in options in other areas like futures. Do you believe an edge is possible in short term futures trading (intraday or swing)?

I don't trade stocks, but surely there's a feature out there on some platforms that can isolate out the small orders. Some of the more experienced ET stock traders should know...

Yup, make sense. Your comeback is likely not too far from the above. Quant will not get you anywhere, it's a mirage, so you can forget that, in my view (I'm a programmer). Steve Cohen hired the best quants last year and they did nothing for him. Imagine that, you got the best guys on the entire...

Were you a day trader or swing trader? I like your attitude and from what I've read I think you are better suited than most to make it happen.

What were you trading? stocks intraday or swing trades?

I prefer Frank's physique to Arnold's and Arnold of course was incredible. At his best, Frank was a work of art that few if any bodybuilders have come close to. Now, they're just difficult to look at for many people, including me. At my best I was 17.25 inches on 185-190 lb (natural). I can...

Great to see AQR telling people to get their heads out of the cloud....

Yes, quick-witted chap isn't he, very charming humility.

A real gentleman, interesting insights. He did freak me out just a little with the voice breaks here and there, but only a little. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzdTVRdDoGc

Are subordinates/analysts still playing the game today?
