Hey guys, I also don't like R Vince's refusal to answer specific questions a couple of posters asked but I can understand his points and where he is coming from. He is basically saying amongst other things that Kelly can cause ruin. This is true because Kelly involves stochastic components. R...

This is the guy that tried to get a trademark for "position sizing" and "system quality number". Here it is for your laughs: http://www.tradingblox.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=32570 His methods are for losers.

Going crazy and risking it all for quick riches

Only last week he made 3 consecutive profitable calls. I would prefer to have his p-indicator in tradestation or metastock or in some other charting program rather than stand-alone because that way it is more efficient to run it. I too think his indicator is interesting.

This author wrote an article in AT where he confuses cointegration with corellation for pairs trading http://www.activetradermag.com/index.php/c/Trading_Strategies/d/Trading_correlation He also thinks that an R of 0.85 between a stock and an ETF means that the ETF is the sun and the stock...

These are typical marketing methods for selling more of his books. His statements are vague and meaningless.

So if you roll a 6,6,6, you would place a trade in the sixth hour, at the 66 minute mark. What about a 6,6,1, or a 6,6,5? You certainly thought of that too in the bathroom...

Classical TA generates too many false signals. In itself it cannot generate high enough win rates and profit factors to cover commission costs. This has been debated for a long time. What you are missing is that TA is just another tool to use. If you spot a nicely formed flag and at the same...

I think you are too generous. It can get you broke in the short run like %Kelly. IMO the key to profitable trading is not how to allocate optimally to one instrument but how to use the lowest possible allocation to trade a number of uncorrelated instruments. It is math. If you are trading a...

I followed Harris' call yesterday for a correction and made some money. His method of analyzing price action is nothing like I have seen before. Although there is room for subjectivity, like in all types of analysis, there are occassions when the signals are strong enough to eliminate any and...

Whathafuc*? You're not well buddy. I'm saying you're not well. A while ago Bill and Mike had a dispute over the results of a certain program. Mike accused Bill of not presenting any results or of the results being wrong. I volunteered to help, I downloaded the program demo and tested a few...

Sure, but it seems you are a clueless individual. No,you are wrong, flat wrong. This is for R:R equal to unity only. Real trading, not your coin flipping fantasies, is described by a completely different formula PF = R x (1-win%)/win% You are clueless. It means that with a proper R...

Masterjaz, Mike805, tradingjournals, JScott, just a warning to you, you should not trade, although I think you haven't for a long time, because you do not understand what trading is and how it differs from probabilist experiments with two equal likely outcomes. Especially as JScott...

Yep, enough for today.

You don't give up, do you? You cannot backtest participant interactions. Forget it. You can simulate them. Learn the difference. Simulation won't help you. Too wide variations.

Good question with a short answer: there is no secure way to protect software. hackers are one step ahead. They can break everything, most add-ons in 5 minutes.

Why do people talk about things they do not understand? I lost all respect about you Mike805. I think you are a crank. If you say such things I really have to seriously reconsider everything else you have said. You need to understand Relativity Mike. Length contraction and time dilation are...

Retail brokers do not understand back/forward testing. They are marketing departments and all they know well is how to trick you into giving them your money using any buzzword they can think of. You do not understand backtesting if you are comparing it to forward testing.

One of the most interesting indicators I have ever come across http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2922709#post2922709

Thanks for the info.
