And how would you know?

I don't know any other savants that have trouble getting laid.

So since u consider yourself a savant - and no other savant u know seems to have this issue-- why are u the exception then?

Actually I made 17.27% yesterday, but only 2.7% today.

The captivate program needs to be streamlined, and I'm working on editing the videos. Think I'll post this weekend when I have all of my data.

I hit record at 8 am both days and stopped a couple times today for a few minutes, but I let it run from 12 to 4:30 and it's now 6:20 and it's still loading the slides.

I'm joining Robbins Trading Company to compete in next years World Trading Championships, and I will win. My personal goal is to beat Larry Williams record in the championship.

To cut to the chase, why don't you just LiveStream your desktop during a trading session rather than capturing/editing a bunch of videos? There was another thread awhile back about some guy who (allegedly) swings a big stick in the ES and broadcasts in that fashion. I can't tell if it's a live account or not, but I've compared it to my own TOS feed when he's live and it tracks pretty much dead on with what I'm seeing. As long as you could give indication that it's a live account and can tell when you enter/exit, there's no need to give away any trade secrets or your method or whatever.

Seems like that would be a pretty much proof or lack thereof for all concerned.

He'll respond that he only lost 40% in 2008 when the SPY lost 50%. The facade of "relative performance".

There's nothing wrong with relative performance if that's your stated goal. But I doubt that's the case with this bozo.

Pardon, but that's BS. None of us are managing equity mutual funds.
 
Quote from bwolinsky:

Atticus, I told you I made 40% in the sim before I started live trading. This week I'm up more than 20% from an 8.7% drawdown due to technical problems.

Let me simply state that I doubt your veracity and leave it at that.

Not really, I'm going to be a leader for Robbins Trading Company.

Right, and I intend on being the 15th Dalai Lama.

All you've shown is that the vast majority of your sim accounts failed. I don't know what makes you think that you can even maintain profitability let alone win something.

Well if you're not into winning those kinds of championships I am going to take a moment and review what I need to make to win this year's world cup.

I view my stuff as an overlay on a long only strategy. But everyone does things differently and comes from a different perspective. When the market is up 2% I have to be up > 2%. When the market is down 2% I have to be down < 2%.

It doesn't matter really as long as your benchmark is consistant over time and with your objectives.
 
Quote from bwolinsky:

Yes, Tim Rea with a little under a double. I can probably beat that...<b><i><u>THIS YEAR.</b></i></u>

Atticus showed a bunch of your portfolios that are down money. Why don't you show the one that's up money?
