    Has ET reached the Tipping Point?

    Here we have a textbook example of a highly intellectual ET post, which has a lot of value for every reader and is written in beautiful language.

    I concur.

    Technical analysis :useless junk science

    LOL... Crap or not is defined by only one thing: consistently profitable or not. :) Hence was my question: do you understand probabilities? You've just answered it in a way. :D Now seriously once again: any profitable method includes risk management component. Throw it away and you easily...

    Technical analysis :useless junk science

    Known by whom? :) I don't use "tiny" neither "wide" stops. I use optimal stops, which statistically make the most sense. If a given signal statistics shows, that 6 ticks stop is optimal, such stop should be used, because it makes the most sense. Optimal stops are integral part of the...

    Technical analysis :useless junk science

    Not the only, brother Oily, not the only... But you once again expose beliefs which limit you... You must accept the reality of trading, believe in those basic concepts which make a profitable trader and start learning from scratch. Then you'll have a chance to achieve consistent profitability too.

    Technical analysis :useless junk science

    How do you know that's false? Because of your own failure? Is it your "proof" that nobody else can do it too? Can you beat or even remotely reach Bolt's score in running 100/200M distance? Does it prove nobody can do it? Think brother Oily, think better to catch your false beliefs which hold you...

    Question to Forex Webmasters…

    1000 unique visitors per month is very low IMO. And you've got to have some interesting unique product or service to sell, not just another banner everyone sees everywhere and has immunity for. :)

    Technical analysis :useless junk science

    You committed two mistakes here. 1) Stop-loss amount has absolutely nothing to do with successful use of probabilities by it's own. Only in relation to other parameters of the trading system. If 6 ticks stop increases the system's net profit vs. 20 ticks stop, then it definitely makes sense...

    Technical analysis :useless junk science

    Do you understand probabilities? Is probability theory a junk science? You're obviously stuck in the past centuries... Newton physics, "fixed" science as you say, is far not the cutting edge of the science anymore, not even speaking of whole reality itself.

    Deal. I'll remind you to check my stats every two weeks starting from today (without posting direct links to not violate ET terms). We'll see if your TA premise strengthens or changes. :) Cannot say I trade "just" TA though, more in a style so well explained by Vic Sperandeo who's works I...

    I'll appreciate your opinion regarding my performance... The more critical the better. Seriously, criticism from the independent professional can expose some of the issues I may not notice myself.

    Oh no... Recalled NoDoji's excellent post exactly on the matter... http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3608945#post3608945 It's too early to make conclusions anyway, positive result of 18 trades with 55% win rate can easily be random, right? :D Time will show if this...

    Not only but including this... It was your idea to start something @ Collective2 or similar place to prove TA works or not, remember? Well, I did, even twice, short-term and long-term. :D I don't position myself as an expert in anything that's beyond my experience, but trust me, I know how...

    No need to believe my word, you know my personal page address, everything is there (won't spam here, I am a stealth vendor, remember? :D ). Outlier? Yes, definitely in the same sense as good musicians, athletes etc. are outliers... Was it Taleb who said that it's extremely hard to succeed in...

    Why misled? I do make consistent profits from the "crooked" FX market, what's wrong with doing that? :) Here's a bit on infrastructure and other information about the city I'm in... just a little bit over 100 years old city... And mind you, there are other similarly developed places in...

    "Heard me say"... Surf, you really believe that you are the main source of trading wisdom here @ ET? :D Simply saying: whatever "Big Smart Money" is... that's just someone who moves the market. I care less who exactly it is, if it does move the market in a certain fashion, it's footprints are...

    Russian Asteroid Crater contains $1 quadrillion in diamonds

    Hehe... Organic agriculture is my 2nd passion after trading. 150km from the nearest big city (where I live in) and 10km from the closest big road... no chemicals... that's the veggies I like for my family. :) Just took the potato crop last weekend... 4 times less amount than last year, but...
