One of the more important benefits to be derived from teaching anything is to learn the subject more deeply and more thoroughly. When I received my Concealed Carry Weapons permit, I wanted to become more skilled with a handgun. So I took the instructor's course. Eventually I became an...

Exactly right and elegantly stated. I am jealous of your skill with words.

If you are referring to me, you are wrong again. Big surprise for someone batting 0 so far. My real money account is autidable. That is what I report on. Pay for the audit by a qualified auditor acceptable to both of us who will report on percentages and not amounts. If I have been...

Being wrong and being rude. An interesting combination. I didn't know answering dubious questions was now considered trolling. I could just ignore you, but then some newbies might be misled. I loaned my copy to a friend working for an investment firm on some strategies of their own...

Several years back (7, I think) I was working on an AI project where I built a genetic algorithms tool kit. I know this will sound like the maxim, "If the tool you know is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail." From my recollection, this would be a good means of attach. By now there are...

My trade filled, so I'm back. Cornered. Oh, I can't wait to hear an explanation for that. Do tell! I have no idea why saying I have friends in the military would scare anyone away from anything. My friends in the military primarily come from two of my areas of interest. I am a private...

The op was addressing the issue of developing. That is sufficient justification for my recommendation. The rest of your post is what my friends in the military refer to as a "target rich environment." I'll give you a pass, as I'm off to my trading platform for a bit.

It ain't necessarily so. But you gave yourself an out by qualifying it with "most likely." :) There are some who are successful by my standards (millions per year), teach and find teaching extremely rewarding in and of itself. Therefor, in that sense, it is not a waste of their time. I even...

My favorite source is "Design, Testing, and Optimization of Trading Systems" by Robert Pardo. A bit academic in presentation, but full of ideas to help you move forward and to avoid fooling yourself.

A competent reading of this thread and my sentence would have made the necessity of adding this clarification unnecessary. I am now doing so on this forum as well. So for you only, "I am also now doing so on this forum as well. My journal on the other forum began Nov 25, 2010. The...

I'm sorry to disagree, but the performance facts are undisputed. You can ignore the facts or present counter arguments. I post my trading plan before the market opens. I post my trading summary after the market closes. I summarize my results when the option series expires. These are facts and...

Tools are useful. What's your contribution to the planet? Hate to repeat myself, but it just seems relevant. And yet there are the results. And they are undisputed.

And yet there are the results. And they are undisputed.

31 DEC 2010 Trading Plan From the Dashboard above I have the following trading plan for tomorrow. Compare the plan with the Dashboard as I will eventually just post the Dashboard Image. Opportunity Incomplete Iron Condors 26 Roll Candidates 35 New...

Thank you for your interest. In the next week or so I will put up some posts here that outline my strategy, how I came to it, what I understand about it and what I don't understand. I've learned a lot from some pretty smart people. Part of what I've learned is that I don't completely...

Your interpretation and mine differ. This can happen even among people of good will. And yet there are the results. And they are undisputed. We'll see

Thank you kindly. Live long and proper.

Care to offer any evidence of your claims? Other place is awful? By what criteria? In the eyes of whom? No serious operator would waste there time there? Perhaps > 200,000 forum members, among other reasons. Supported by bookmakers? Do you mean spread betting support? They are based in...

Apparently you dozed instead of reading the entire journal, otherwise you would have noted that some of the challengers may have changed their initial views.
