    If edge is hard to get, why traders keep trading?

    I just finished watching the European Poker Championship finals on TV, many of the attributes that give these players an edge are relevant to trading/speculating.

    If edge is hard to get, why traders keep trading?

    Of course not! But without positive expectancy you can be guaranteed to lose over the long haul! Also from Elcubano "Risk is the only one thing we can control in trading once a trade is put on. If the only one thing we can control in trading isn't an intregal part of an EDGE, then...

    Holy Grail!! I found it..

    "programmable and are not open to interpretation." Hi Prof, I never use Price/Time Charts- Indicators, or in your case Price/Volume Charts yet both our market logic appears to be very similar! When I was young I was a very good Snooker player (made a lot of money) what you would...
