Cornix's TA Performance

Quote from RichardRimes:

welcome back Cornix! I have given the entire debate quite a bit of thought. I know that I use resources that even I'm not consciously aware in my trading so I personally could never go mechanical. I think many statistics prove than not a "single" TA strat is more than 50-50 over time....so I think most TA traders use more than one indicator to initiate a position and it is the management of their trade that ultimately defines their skill.


anyhoo glad to see you back and gl in the future.

Thanks, RR!

My personal experience is: we need recurring patterns/rules to put odds in our favor, but it's not as mechanical a list of say 5-10 parameters and go for it every time. Simply there are more nuances to every setup, which have to be considered.
 
Perhaps of the strats publicly identified and tested. The ones that are guarded closely are probably not part of that group.

How's it going, Cornex?

You were the last hope for Elitetrader to show that someone can actually make money consistently from price charts/TA.

Doesn't look like it went well in the end.
Will you be continuing?

Fat lady didn't sing yet (just back from the opera :D ). I do continue, just not as active on ET as I used to be. :)
 
ho, that is 9 months and I take from your answers you did not make major progress in account balance. This is around 180 trading days and roughly 180 trades & tons of commission.

At least TA based trading is not hitting new account high each month like I was led to believe by some. So I feel better now.
