Trend Following-Trend Commandments

Quote from Trend Following:

The anonymous hero worship of a few in ET is weird. There are clearly some wannabe Madoff's in training lurking around...doing their best Pied Piper imitation.

You are an author and journalist. To earn our respect why not post facts instead of just your opinions and interviews of others voicing their opinions?

Maestro's credentials are open information for those that want to look for it on this site. Go interview him and get the facts instead of flaming him without merit.
 
If real people with real names want to be non-anonymous, ok. If someone wants me to see a link, post it. No time for scavenger hunts.
 
My name is Michael Covel. For those with a pulse, not new information.
 
Quote from Colyn.Rosenthal:

There is a link to Maestro's company on this site in his posts. Go see for yourself.

No, it's not on his posts here or on his profile. I'm not going to search through nearly 2,000 of his posts to find it. I'll leave that to you Kool-Aid drinkers. Either post it or quit making unsubstantiated claims.

Just curious, is the mantra you said earlier something you recite 100 times at your cult meetings:

"Maestro, you are a master quant, you are a master trader, you are an investor's investor, you walk the walk and talk the talk. You can back up all of your opinions with cold hard facts."

Here is the link for those of you that are "search" & technically challenged. God forbid you put forth some effort to check something out. Simpler just to flame, right?

Kool-Aid drinkers? So those of us that attended college, comprehend higher math and can read and understand things like this:

are Kool-Aid drinkers huh? When did simply becoming "informed", educated and have a hunger for information be a negative?

Good luck "following" someone that can't define his own area of expertise.
 
Quote from jsp326:

"Price Physics" is bunk, plain and simple. I have a good enough background in physics, math/stats, finance/econ and trading system development to make that call. Maybe it's changed since 2005 or so when I bought the manual and observed the chat room for a bit, but I doubt it. People tried to trade with clueless discretion or else tried to make it mechanical (I was in the latter group, and tried many variations).

Like anything, you can curve-fit some nice-looking strategy out of it. However, until it's proven (read: audited) in real-time over statistically-significant number of trades and multiple market conditions, it's nothing more than theoretical mumbo jumbo. Sorry if that burst any bubbles.

I would appreciate any hard data you have debunking this method. I check out stuff from time to time and was about to begin tearing into it. I'm not interested in anything other than hard data though. I've been watching a friend test it and from what I see it is fully mechanical and objective.
