    Thinking like the Bigfish

    I open with that because what I am about to present is how the biggest fish think. This is an assertion, not an opinion. Not apparent at all. However I do know what I am talking about and have thousands of hours of research experience and proofs behind what I say. You are an...

    The evil of Dpctors

    spinn has some real star alternative quacks coming to his aid. Colloidal silver is a crock. It is propagated by people with little scientific or medical understanding. Do not start dosing with this stuff. There are serious side effects from playing self-doctor. There is an entire...

    Marking timing by sentiment - opinions?

    without proof, it is noise. There have been scads of articles trying to match up scads of indicators or other things with outperformance.

    No, there are other ways such as: -- go long and short on the index. -- market time (be flat at times one believes the market will outperform).

    Starting a new prop firm

    Hmm - 5 posts and anonymous - how could we possibly doubt this recommendation? Hopefully anyone setting up something will do their research, get legal/financial guidance from major, trusted sources and not just depend on forum advice...

    Mark Fishers - ACD System from "The Logical trader"

    This was an amazingly empty post: spent a lot of time, couldn't teach it, we make it work but don't want to talk about it nor evidence this, but we do make a lengthy post talking around it suggests the whole thing is suspiciously false.

    Riding Winners

    There is none. Under testing by some research I have seen (industry publications, etc.), size of stops (within reason), breakeven, scaling out, trailing stops, and lot of others do not offer much in the way of overall performance boost. The best thing to do, is take a sizable number of your...

    I keep missing setups ! Argh !

    I know it works. Sorry, but you don't know this at all. You only have something that has a possibility that it works.

    What is a workable expectancy?

    Thoughts: 1) it is unusual for models/backtest to yield anything of significant expectancy. Many backtest, few make profits. 2) your worst drawdown during testing may have little to do with real world - it is common for real world DD to be several times that of your testing periods. 3) any...

    The evil of Dpctors

    +1. I looked at his link, and Spinn needs some serious therapy in how to do research. 1 link or 1 news story or 1 accusation means little. And his assessment of the article is weak, and its foundation it is a charge from one unknown AG. To Spinn, it's the basis of conspiracy theory.

    Take the Index Piker Challenge

    The common misconception is actually the above paragraph. One person's self-testified logs do not really prove anything. Returns without metrics do not prove anything. What is the Sharpe, drawdown, profit factor, etc.? What is the return as compared to the underlying index? This...
