Quote from tobbe:
I'm just saying you've chosen to view the markets through one pair of glasses. There are others. One view does not necessarily invalidate another. You have proof there is no statistical edge in "trends", still there are profitable systems that thrive on exactly that which you say does not exist. Go figure.

Quote from marketsurfer:
Not my opinion. Run the tests yourself, stats don't lie--- but if you prefer to keep banging you head on the wall as to why you are not making money, go right ahead.
What part of "objective, mechanical, profitable" did you not get? Everyone using the exact same system will have almost the same results. It has nothing to do with guessing or gambling.Quote from marketsurfer:
Actually, there can't be. The underlying premise is fatally flawed--- those who make it are the lucky guessers and casino winners of the trading world. There are just as many losers, if not more, using the exact same trend system.
