    Hall of fame threads

    http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/a-new-kelly-formula.291307/ This formula is unique throughout all of public trading material and it works. If that's not HoF material, I don't know what is.

    Niederhoffer thinks "follow the trend" sucks

    According to the theory behind the Hurst exponent, a time series can be trending (HE values close to 1), anti-trending (HE values close to 0) or random (HE values close to 0.5). A trader can profit from trending or from anti-trending but nobody profits from random except through pure dumb luck...

    Niederhoffer thinks "follow the trend" sucks

    When I first studied trading many years ago, one of the first things I learned was The 4 Cardinal Principles of Trading : 1 Trade with the Trend (aka Follow the Trend). 2 Cut losses short. 3 Let winnings run. 4 Manage Risk (aka money management). Somewhere along the way VN violated one...

    Search downgrade

    What about just finding threads started by a certain member in select forums rather than all forums? For some members, this can make a substantial difference in the search output.

    DMI/ADX consistently works

    You've replied to a post that's almost 12 years old. I know my own strategy has changed more than once over that time period.

    Fixed Does Elite Trader stand behind this post ?

    Sounds like chickenshit racism to me. Cowards like TGregg want to express their racism while pretending they're really not by using a derivative of the original insult that they stupidly believe only like-minded people are intelligent enough to figure out. It's part of the mindset where the...

    Fixed Does Elite Trader stand behind this post ?

    Conservatives continually get this wrong. Freedom of speech means someone can't be locked up for being a bigoted foul-mouthed ignoramus. It does NOT mean his ass can't be fired for violating workplace rules of conduct, or removed from situations like cussing up a storm in a playground full of...

    Is trading only a hobby or job for the rich?

    You really should develop a trading plan before trading, even in a demo account. Otherwise you're just practicing bad trading habits even as you struggle to develop a plan with an edge (positive expectation).

    Is trading only a hobby or job for the rich?

    Want to be a doctor? Get out there and start experimenting on the indigent. No need to read any medical books. Want to be a writer. Just start writing, no need to study grammar, spelling, vocabulary, plot devices, character studies, etc. See how silly this can get? Trading is far more...

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    That's not what a troll is. Baron already gave a perfect example earlier in this thread, you should look it up. I have no problem entering a thread that's moderated. If my input isn't welcome, so be it. The people squealing the loudest about this change are the very ones who've been trolling...

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    Looking back in this thread, it is simply amazing, not to mention amusing, how the idea of letting OPs moderate their own threads causes so many trolls to just lose their minds. "It's da end o' da woild, I tells ya!" LOL

    Question: how to deal with trolls? Can't anybody do something about them?

    Nonsense. Censorship would be preventing you from starting your own thread expressing disapproval of the subject matter. That's not going to happen. Now you'll just have to work a little harder to express your opposition. No more crapping all over somebody else's thread just because he likes...

    "Hate" or "Dislike" button

    See? No need for a dislike button. Man up, speak your piece or STFU. Now go back to whining for your backstab button like the lazy turd-goobling little bitch we all know you are.

    "Hate" or "Dislike" button

    Bad idea. Back when we had the rating system there was at least one psycho who spent most of his time and multiple sockpuppets down-rating the threads of people he didn't like. Thread quality didn't matter. Thread topic didn't matter! All that mattered to that wackjob was how he felt about the...

    I am sick of these fake mentors

    Good advice overall. You have to be willing and ready to give something if you expect to get something, especially from a stranger. I still think the best advice is to be your own mentor. I've gotten guidance from some great posts here and elsewhere but the best ideas I've had are still the...

    So after years of seaching..

    Agreed on both points. It matters. MM is not edge. This is most glaringly obvious with casino games. If you play casino craps, no MM scheme in the world will save your betting account in the long run simply because you don't have the edge. Your opponent (the house) has the edge. If you play...
