Traders That Beat The System.

[kslandman]

Do you think there is a trader out there, somewhere in the world that has figured out a way to "beat the system" meaning no losses. And has done this over a large period of time. I know most people are thinking that is an impossible task. But the world is a HUGE place. SO were talking a small needle in a giant haystack. But im sure someone out there has figured it out. ALSO I want to make clear that I don't believe traders should look for a system with 100% success rate, that's not a good idea. Im sure you have a much better chance of hitting the mega power ball lottery. But I believe there is a good chance someone out there has cracked the code. Your thoughts?

Not allowed; once someone gets wind of your success you will be sabotaged in some way shape or form

Don't think there is such a thing....but I have a few CTA ( commodity trading advisers) who have done pretty well and consistent. Most need minimum of $100,000. All have losing months and drawdowns....

I think if anyone is good enough, they may become a CTA sooner or later as they can charge performance fees and benefit from managing larger money but....who knows....

Since we’re not talking about zero losses but “beating the system” then maybe @destriero would qualify since he had like 10x higher profit than drawdowns. Too bad the guy appears to be dead now (suicide?).
While even Renaissance’s Medallion had large drawdowns, implied by the recent book.

hi.
