    Do you have a system or method to analyze your system/trades?

    Concentrate on one thing only-drawdown. I would be skeptical if you even accomplished yet with regularity positive results after 1000 trades.(that is after accounting for costs and slippage). Do you look at every single trade? No Do you look at your best days and worst days? No And what...

    Why isn't Jim Simons richer than Warren Buffett?

    Simons is just a clever frontman who gets all the credit. It was Elwyn Berlekamp who came with an ideas..Because only after they brought him on from Axcom things changed and Rentech started making money. Medallion's results will not get depleted over time,it's only wishful thinking of naysayers.

    i have a solid system. i'm looking for help - collaboration to trade it.

    Take it easy pal There is nothing here to be excited about. Your expectancy per trade is low,understandable you are trading scared at times. I don't run any tests on stocks,but in futures that number can be from $200 to $1800 per trade with similar number of trades. Where is max draw down and...

    Looking for a partnership for AI algo.

    Is this some kind of joke?This is not going to happen,at best you can be on the sidelines.To make money you need to be on right side of the trend.

    "Things didn’t turn out how she wanted — so she had a tantrum at the umpire. How classy! No one expected Naomi Osaka to win the US Open yesterday. Everyone favoured her opponent. The crowd was solidly with Serena Williams, as were the bookies. But the 20-year-old Japanese-Haitian, who became...

    What are the most conflicting things you've heard from ET?

    Can be said that the reason that trading is hard is because there are just too many choices.What's positive and helps,what's negative? That's up to you to decide,separate what is true against false. These choices are biggest difficulties,need to spend time to go through them,takes years

    Lower the size so you when it goes according to plan and you recover losses you will learn in the process,if you don't you will lose it all.
