    Looking for a trader...

    i think your expectations are way to high man.. you would be better off in vegas. 10 grand could make 2 grand in a year - if you need more income you will loose it trying to get it.

    Mathematically Predicting the Future?

    i think if anyone is going to have a math model that will predict the future. it would be clearly a buy it sell it model. not something that has perfected the art of confusion. like support will be found tomorrow at 9:30 around the 1500 level and resistance will be found around 12:00 at the...

    Mathematically Predicting the Future?

    MIT's Tech Review: "The Blowup" / quants

    smarter trading - kaufman tackes this very problem and supplies an answer in which he excludes the anomaly which causes the out of normal, from the future calculation. the indicator resets itself. percentages are really something that these quants should study. mb

    Mathematically Predicting the Future?

    if you look at card counting it involves math? if you are right 7 out of 10 times did you pull that out of your a$$? are you such a good gambler that you can be right 7 out of 10 times? in fact didn't you just use math to come up with the 7 out of 10? please explain to me how you trade...
