I would definately agree that there are a massive amount of systems out there like that, and may even go so far as to say that any system for sale is like that, but there are also a lot of systems that people use everyday that aren't open to scrutiny or exposure that actually do work. Sure...

No problem! Oh, and while I'm at it, give me your account details so I can deposit half my trade earnings into your account... - The New Guy

C'mon, just because there are examples of systems that don't work doesn't mean they all don't work. That's completely illogical, and I'm not going to argue that further. I never suggested that all systems work, just that every hedge fund that I've worked at used systems, most of them were...

Logically self evident? There's evidence right on this board of amateurs finding inefficiencies in the market. The idea that the market is effecient is a fallacy, and an excercise in theory. The market is ineffecient, if made so by no other reason than the dissemination of inforamation is...

Are you kidding? On what basis are you making these assumptions? - The New Guy

for what it's worth, I don't think anyone who has read even a couple of pages of this journal question your integrity. I know I don't. - The New Guy

Can you point me in the direction of where you stated that before please? I'd like to read that.... Thanks, The New Guy

Honestly man, are you serious? This is almost starting to sound like someone's buddy having a joke on the threads..... Have you looked into gaming theory at all? Go buy "Bringing down the house" and read it, it's a good start. Not on gaming theory, but it outlines pretty much the most you...

I would just like to post a quick "thank you" to you all who have posted in this thread. I've been trading options for a little while now, and have actually enjoyed some pretty good success. However, after reading this thread you guys have taught me a lesson that I now realize Mr Market was...

Two things that have helped me tremendously... Picture your most annoying friend (especially if you have one that is always right) standing over your shoulder asking you constantly (why did you do that? why did you do that? why did you do that?). If you don't have an answer for this person...

Why don't you two set up one of those fake online portfolios each and open it up to the public and have a trade-off for a month or so.... I'm so ashamed that I want to know how this turns out.... :D :D :D - The New Guy

I'm not taking a stab at this journal, I think it's absolutely fantastic. I've expressed my appreciation to Spyder about it before, and all the others that contribute to it. However, if you do read through it and all the other material supplied you realize quite a few of the concepts have...

Thank you, that's all that I was looking for. I guess I have to work on phrasing my questions better... :( Thanks, The New Guy

Thank you both for your reply. Smtrader, I appreciate the response. I have read all the material supplied, and every post in this journal more than once. This journal, however, is rather fragmented and some parts of it are confusing and contradicting, even when read the whole way through...

Then i don't get what you mean when you say Jack trades from that list. Do you mean he checks that list to see if they are in dry up only? Thanks, The New Guy

I must be missing something then, FORD must have produced a signal today... how come it wasn't mentioned in the review? Thanks, The New Guy

SpyderTrader, Have you given any consideration in to using volume velocity as an exiting strategy to your trades? I only ask because of FORD the other day. It was absolutely sky rocketing, and as soon as the volume slowed down, so did the price, which from what i've read by Jack seems to...

Can anyone point me to a post describing the signifigance of the host list again please? Thanks, The New Guy

Thanks for all the replies! In regards to the HV, I've noticed two different approaches, in excel. ln(today's close/yesterday's close) equals something marginally different than (today's close/yesterday's close - 1) in excel. Does anyone know which is more accurate? Thanks, The...

very quick question.... ln(today's close/yesterday's close) equals something marginally different than (today's close/yesterday's close - 1) in excel. Does anyone know which is more accurate? Thanks, The New Guy
