Price of an algorithm for automated trading.

I'll add another thing:

1. I've never met Mark Brown in person. Never called the dude or talked to him on the phone. The first interaction I had with him was in Omega-List right before I moved from LA (as a discretionary prop. trader) to Chicago (though, initially unintended, a systematic trader). Since then, I was an internet stalker of his, reading every posts he's ever made.

2. I have no real-life connections with Mark Brown. In another words, I'm not affiliated with him... what-so-ever.

3. I didn't buy the system from Mark. All I did was, got his E-mail from his website and I asked him about ways to implementing intraday trading systems. He gave me pointers about it and also a .jpg snapshot of his tick-data based trading model. I tried to reverse-engineer it and never got exactly right. What did help me was the snippets of information which got me inspired with how intraday models are developed... and made the original system I had better.

4. Alan Crary looks up to Mark Johnson. Mark Johnson looks up to Mark Brown. I look up to all 3 but...

I think I'm better than all of them...

Quote from Emilio_Lizardo:

In what bizzarre parallel universe does Mark Brown have any reputation other than as a ghastly little self-promoter? I can assure you that no one in the upper echelons of the industry in either Chicago or New York has ever heard of Mr.Brown, self-annointed guru.




Beau is a graduate of a fifth tier college somewhere in Tennessee. In addition to his educational deficit, he has little or no relevant experience, having worked at approximately zero industry firms.

What is your academic background TSGG? At which university did you take your degree? What was the title of your thesis?

Centre College is a top 50 Liberal Arts School. Hardly fifth tier, you moron, and it's in Danville, Kentucky.

I also have taken Level II of the CFA Curiculum, Jackass.

I have relaunched the OddBall Systems web site.

It is a totally free - fully automated trading system - which is fully disclosed.

To my knowledge it is the most profitable free and fully disclosed trading model presented in real time for anyone to use.
