Las Vegas is the product of intelligent designers...
Very intelligent...
Those who blame Vegas for their losses are children...
Quote from james_bond_3rd:
Don't change the subject. Do you or do you not believe that there is an ID of the market?
Let's not use the word "blame" because you misunderstood my question. In your research how do you treat your losses? Aside from possible deficiencies in your system/trading strategy, in the best case scenario, what do you think are the causes of your losses? Are they not "random ignorant chances?"
Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:
The market place is a product of intelligent design, or course.
In my trading I treat my losses as losses. It is just a cost of doing business.
I think the cause of the losses is the effect of being on the wrong side of the market. That happens to speculators all the time...
Quote from james_bond_3rd:
First of all, you're changing the subject again. "The market place" is certainly a product of ID. But what about the market itself?
Did you ever want to find out why you were on the "wrong" side of the market? If you don't want to know, how did you ever make money?
why would someone wantto embrace an idea that makes no sense to them?Quote from pattersb:
Here's a thought.
The anti-religious, if they weren't so blinded by their hate of religion, would embrace Intelligent Design.
then surely, that would be fair reason to have hate of religion.Quote from pattersb:
We can all agree that religion is and was at the heart of many conflicts today and throughout history.
you suggest exposeing a common religious thread for folks that makes no sense to them , stick it through religion, when you have given fair reason to hate religion . eh?Quote from pattersb:
ID could be viewed as an attempt to remove all religious dogma from the perhaps most profound of questions, and expose a common thread among all religious beliefs.
a more profound thought perhapsQuote from pattersb:
Here's a thought.
