%%And one more thing New....., you commented that even a 4-month period of trading is meaningless. Then you should definitely work on your strategy, if you cannot find within a 4 -month period if your strategy is working or not. You must have bad or very mediocre strategies that you cannot see that in that timespan. Good traders are profitable every month (at least). So you need to work a lot here before spreading around your negativity.
And one more for T.....wave, if you had difficulties to believe the performance of what I have done (FACTS), then you should question yourself what is possible in the trading world. Maybe you start again with some readings on (the randomly selected, because there are many, many more) New Market Wizards books from Schwager. Then you might get a better idea. It also tells me you have never seen a very good strategy. So work on. But not offending me and other traders.
Maybe a bit jealous;
actually it would be easy to make a good case for or against importance of 2-4 weeks . Or make a good case for 10 years LOL


Or in some cases 3 months.
LOL.Mark weinstein won the option trading contest, 47 traders, put up $5,000 winner take all. $100,000 into $900,000+ the 47 X$5,000 bonus .
Actually that maybe an easy way to blow up an account, but since he did not add to the $100k+ markets were good...... no wonder he won. Always double check my math, there is a good reason most banks hire female tellers
