Is it really an Edge?

I know what is Random in practice.

Random is when I place an order expecting a profit, I end up at a loss; when expecting a loss, I still end up at a loss. :confused: :mad:

I refer back to gerry's post where he uses the phrase "random entries." Within the context of this thread up to that point, how do you think gerry was using the phrase? Do you think he was using it to reference what db' and Scientist are referring to, some impossible set of conditions? Or do you think he was referring to what I am talking about, just any old entry not based on indicators crossing, or earnings coming out etc.?

Actually, gerry's post has nothing to do with the way in which you're defining "random entry". He was, in fact, agreeing with a previous post of mine, if it's still there.

As for the "impossible set of conditions", they are hardly impossible. Rather they define random selection, a basic principle of sound research design.

LOLOL! Oh man that is funny! I sure hope you don't experience random very often. :)

My random thinking is most traders randomly would experience this kind of random events. :D

I studied about 0.1 %, I guess, of Jack's stuff only. Didn't expect so much impact! :mad:

Sorry OddTrader, glad you told me. I think I confused your name with one that's close to it. So you didn't catch the bug yet.

Please forgive me.
