Does trend following have an edge?

Looks like a couple books a month would cover the expense.

If the priority was to sell a book, you would be correct but it is far outside your comprehension that trading could actually be far more consistently profitable than teaching.

We all know you are simply a shill and a huckster for your "old school" hedge funds. You are not a trader. The only attempt at that career failed miserably. Your "picks" have continuously fallen on their faces. The last major goofaa was your Euro trade that you beat the drum to death on until you were so far upside down on you wouldn't respond to comments on your on blog or even posted an exit.

Your obsession of trying to discredit my work is borderline ridiculous if not sophomoric. You really need to focus your energy getting a life. Repeatedly weaseling back into this site, where you have been banned more than 20 times, just to take swings at me is a fixation you need psychological help with.

Yes, 2 books per month would cover the cost in the educational forum as well as support elite. I wouldn't be surprised if Even a better deal could be negotiated.

Is that why you got banned here because you couldn't negotiate a better deal?

Oh, that's right. You never tried. You just weasel a link now and then till management got sick of your inability to follow the rules and permanently banned you.

If so, can you please tell me what it is?

N.B. I'm not saying that you need an edge necessarily to make money...

trend following has an edge. after all, the big funds create the trend

Yes, but an edge exists in knowing what the big boys will do before they do it. Not following a non existence trend since by then you are late to the party. Edges don't exist looking at back dated data or artistically designed charts.

last 4 months its been roughly a ten day turn,so if you noticed the ten day turns,you could get long or short at the beginning or end

I have no reason to doubt Mr Prof's sincerity, but in fairness to Mr Tex -- has <i>any</i> vendor of high-priced books/ systems/ seminars ever <i>not</i> said he made more from trading than from vending?

Since I have never offered anything on this site for sale, unlike Texsurf, why am I the vendor?
