I have tested Vic's assertion with Inventure's Ranger. Let's simply say that nobody would made a decisive bet based upon the output.
PTJ's software from 1996?? what imputs/formula did you use, what was the output and why dont you post the results/graphs. that software certainly makes pretty graphs. you better be prepared to back up these comments. LOL !

Quote from Reckoner:
I didn't notice much of discussion, just a lot of name calling and nit picking. Seemed to me like pretty shabby treatment of a great trader and benevolent person, which is why I've been wasting my time here.
I think the same thing should apply to Vic also. He is all the time name calling other people. His site has hundreds of slimy comment about Buffet, Ed Seykota, Tudor Jones, John W Henry, and every other hedge fund manager.
Most of the Vics claim to greatness are his own. Like this claim from latest interview.
"The ridiculous thing, in all candor, is that I think I've had the greatest run of success in the history of speculation," Niederhoffer said.
Hubris Hubris hubris.

I can't seem to find any equivalents of 'totally pathetic trader', 'disgusting behavior, it shows this man has no integrity.'
It also seems to me that attacking underperforming investment icons may be put into the category of 'deflating ballyhoo' rather than anything personal.
As for the run of success, is it 'hubris' if the description is accurate?
another clue that will be lost on u: if i felt like i had anything to prove to u, i wld be like u, as far as losers i mean...Quote from Reckoner:
I'm just curious about my theory, that it's LOSERS who are bashing Niederhoffer because they're JEALOUS. But for this we'd need to see the trading results of his detractors. Care to be the first?
Predictions for suckers?
How, pray, do you intend to make money in markets if you don't have some idea of where a market is going, and the odds of it going there? That is what a prediction is. Now one may choose to make them using experience, science, gut, whatever. But without some kind of edge you're going to lose.
So let me see now:
a) You're bashing a great.
b) You don't believe in predictions.
c) You don't want us to know your track record.
a+b+c = loser!

Yeah, I'll get right on that, hoodoo... and no, the graphs are like vterm output; like you'd know the difference. lmao.
5 consecutive declines, sans mag. Bonds 5d highs, SPX 5d lows.

Google your own site you will find it.

I have the output here... I will be giddy to post it provided profturf will post his model result which produced his long signal; and no, a napkin with "The Stain's" lipstick will not suffice.
My comments were not derogatory -- it was simply to point out that his logic for the buy signal was pretty silly. I hope he hits high water this month, more power to him.
