Ok. If i get this right, i would set up a model where some statistics are assumed such as win rate, average loss, average win, greatest loss, greatest win. This could be fed into a program that can run a million times and yield some fairly reliable data (mainly about drawdowns), should the...

I like this idea. It'll probably happen. It solves two problems at once. Much more than $100 it starts to become more obviously a joint venture where it would be better to have two signers on an account. The model i'm working on is where the account belongs to another individual who is...

I ought to know what MC means, but you'll have to refresh my memory. Yes, we have backtesting and some forward testing to indicate what size drawdown to expect in a system that works long-term over N trades. Yes, the more N trades the better we can estimate that. Yes i agree its...

I hear you. But i'm doing this experiment for accounts where the holder would not understand that principle. The way i see it, i need to rack up some stats that say i'm batting 10 for 10, which would be 1.000 in baseball terms. Even .333 is not good enough. One solution is to have...

No i'm the guy that thought it was believable that someone adequately educated (from the future) could overcome time constraints because of the non-linear (holographic) nature of time. And i thought that some information published in a book may be trade-able due to the believability of the guys...

I think you are right about finding a system with a high winrate. However, that often (usually?) means using a stop-loss that's larger than the take-profit. I could get a pretty high winrate with a $100 stop loss! ;) I'm currently working on a system that might work with a $21 stop loss...

This thread starts with a question, and hopefully will end with an answer. Given a $100 account and .1 lot sizes, how would you handle a system that indicates it may, at some unknown time, drop as much as $200 or more before picking back up? The obvious answer seems to be to wait for a...

So i think i may have figured out what your *premise* is. You seem to be saying that every 40 years, our nations vocabulary is completely exchanged with terms we've never heard of whenever we are talking about technology. So, if someone were to talk about 40-year-in-the-future technology...

Shouldn't this thread be in the Psychology forum? ;]

So what is your point, exactly, as it applies to the source of information from the future, as mentioned at the beginning of this thread? Let me guess! You don't think the predictions are valid because they talk about things we've already conceived of. If the predictions are valid, they'd...

I'm not buying your argument here. 40 years ago was 1972. In 1972 they had mainframes and terminals. They even had remote mainframes connected to local terminals. You wrote your basic program on your Teletype model 33 (if you're names were Bill or Paul), typed RUN, and your code would be...

I've been known to say that what we've been proudly calling "the world" is actually the proverbial "hell". Does this engender fear? It's not supposed to. I've also been known to say that future hell is another way of saying: 'If you always think what you've always thought, you'll...

Let's talk about your feelings. Just imagine there is a couch here. Why not just lie down and relax? Tell me about your feelings of sadness and badness. Why do you feel sad and bad for me? It's seems you've made a judgement: Good1's life is meaningless and empty. Let's talk...

It does function as a sales-letter for the material you mentioned, which they say is the underlying psychology that frees them up to transcend the perceived limits of time. I don't think there is a downloadable version of Gary's Book. There is, however a place where the materials you...

People do dishonor when they misrepresent the Divine. Deals that demand that a demeaning Divinity dole out damnation to dupes that don't dance are disrespectful and derelict, not dandy.

Well now that this is in chit chat i guess anybody can say anything they want! ;) I'll correct your misunderstandings the best i can later if i want to. I have something i must attend to this evening and tomorrow. Over all , i consider this tone to be a temptation that many end up falling...

Maybe Amazon would have a downloadable version? I reread what i said and wanted to clarify. There are lots of impressive sounding messages and means by which they seem to arrive to the ears of earthlings. Amongst the various methods of communication, the method used to reach Gary was the...

Can you explain more about what you mean be loss recovery system?

Good one! Believe me, i've read several types of these books, but can say that this one is different. It took me a while to figure out what's going on. It imagination against Reality. Anything goes. There is no limit to the amount of BS allowed to keep us from figuring this out. It's our...
