Can you formalize your question? What exactly do you want to know?
Hmm. such stupid statements by you don't make you any wiser, man...As for using backtesting as proof of trading results, well, only a monkey would do that, and we already know the surf gang loves bananas

LOL botpro is telling me i am dumb. Thanks for the compliment, pal!
What part of “I don’t care what you think” aren’t you able to comprehend?
You have some serious understanding issues. I never questioned the usefulness of simulated market data. I am pointing out your complete lack of market awareness when it comes to using that tool.

Well, I really don't want to know anything from you lot, as it is all meaningless rubbish
The only thing I know, is that I really know nothing

No, as I am not living in usa or paying us taxes, it is just I seen him post a screenshot and he mentioned IRA account, which appeared to be a very small account.
The point is, he talks as if he is a big options trader, when the reality is totally different.
This goes for 99.99% of posters on this site, all talk and hype

I don’t care what you think.
Me having a "complete lack of market awareness when using a system testing tool"? How do you come to such an idiotic conclusion? Just explain.

I have had (current & former) jobs where I cannot trade my own account due to the risk of self-dealing. The IRA is excluded. Most of my personal trading is done in my IRA. The rest is in partnerships in the EU where I trade equity exotics.
I have had IRAs since the mid 90's. I haven't calculated the organic return since inception, due to adds, but I'd guess that well over 95% of the net liq is due to organic growth.
J_Smith's contribution was to post two trades totaling <$130 in risk. I shit you not.
Ok, at least honest, makes much sense, but IMO nothing new for me and the others...The only thing I know, is that I really know nothing
