did you know that basketball was originally a hunting training exercise? toss the ball onto a rhinoceros' head, maybe pop it on his horn.. his head would raise up exposing his jugular for the kill.
Quote from bwolinsky:
Trust + Performance = Transaction
Communication * (Trust + Performance) = Accountability
This is not a valid algorithm for trading and also has no basis economically either. It's nice philosophically, perhaps logically, but this is in no way a theory that can be tested and doesn't require much debate about why it doesn't explain anything...specifically because it makes no predictions.
See MMO and Cramer's Pink Tie on google.
Quote from Mav88:
Of course I knew, it's common knowledge. I bet though you didn't know the less well known fact that throwing a basketball on the ground to get a guy to bend over was the forerunner of the famous dropping soap in the prison shower trick.
Quote from FireWalker:
Exceptions to the above are sales and advertising to attract other traders. A few do make money if they are good at bringing in more easy money.
The internet is under attack. Preventing information from reaching traders in time.
Your broker also time lags. Price is lagged to give traders a certain view when the true price is already known.
