alright..... my next question to ask is.... if you believe the markets move according to chaos theory, do you approach them any differently than if you believed they were random? i have to say, i am no expert on randomness, chaos....or whatever other movements there are.. thanks

ok well, there you have it. the answer to the question, "are the markets random?" is NO. i don't even make money and i know this much.

oh wow......if this is true.....this is quite hilarious!! sorry to laugh at you JT..it happens to the best of us!

i do not believe the markets are random. i don't know what word i'd use to describe them, but i think i can explain how they move. if someone knows the term for this, please let me know... i don't believe one particular indicator or trading technique controls the market. i believe at times a...

i know a lot of words, but i gotta say.. daniel_m has used some nice words throughout this thread. another good one is "sophistry." (used on darkhorse hehe)

i feel bad participating in this debate.. it's like getting in a fist fight with a completely paralyzed paraplegic. (they can't fight back) you theists are free to believe whatever it is you want. i don't mind one bit. but please, just admit that the atheists are wasting you in this debate...

just curious if you know it was all at the same time? boy, that would be something!!

i'm not very violent.. i can't remember the last time i ever threw something in a violent rage. :mad: so, whenever i have a bad trading day, i usually just end up going for a walk down a hiking trail and think about my life. hehe other times i will mountain bike, or go lift some weights at the...

THUNDERBOLT THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! (see above from page 3!!!) just kidding man...it's ok. this thread is interesting and entertaining... :cool:

sounds like you're having a good time. :D open a window and throw it out.

yes, you're right. the wording of what i meant was weak. :mad:

thanks for the laugh!

quah, there was a previous poster in this thread that said he backtested your system in tradestation. i just wanted to say that i agree with your opinion that maybe it was not tested exactly as you are trading. not to say that the other guy doesn't know what he's doing, but don't be...

well, the new sheriff has already left. lol i am deleting the recent addition to my signature because i realized it is very hypocritical of me (although still true). what i had written suggests that people not put their dumb money into the market. but, as a trader, i am trying to capitalize...

in the words of Gordon G's Mom: LOL hehehee!!!!
