Trendfollowers: When oh when are we going to start making some $$$?

Quote from Rodney King:

Thanks for sharing the Excel file. One question (not a flame or troll, a genuine question) -- in your seminar you teach ag futures strategies (per your PDF) but this Excel file is for ticker ES - ?

As I pointed out in the post to asiaprop and Jack, I read all charts environments the same way. Whether it is the indices, currencies, financials, softs, grains, meats, metals, stocks, ETF's or energies my chart environments show price action identically the same natural way.

Educated Ag producers are speculators as well as hedgers and they not only are they interested in the price direction and strength of that direction of the particular crops they have in the field or meats they are producing but they are also interested in the related costs to their business such as: the energy markets due to related costs, currency markets due to exchange rates, financial markets due to interest rates, indices due to overall market direction, if a grain producer, meat markets due to end user costs and finally if a meat producer, grain costs due to feed expenses.

It is in our overall best interest to educate the farmer as much as possible to keep food cost to a minimum. A smarter farmer most likely will mean lower food costs if they can keep costs and expenses at a minimum and direct production profits at a maximum.
 
Quote from Rodney King:

That's broadly true, but much of the content on nuclearphynance is also uninformed or misguided -- albeit in a high(er)brow way.
That might be true, however no snake oil salesmen are tolerated, ever, and noobs - in fact all - must adhere to strict guidelines otherwise they get blended, post haste. Definitely no stealth vendors or advertising under the radar so to speak.

Quote from asiaprop:

So, according to your definition of curve fitting, you should not trade at all. ANYTHING you ever tested and seemed to work is "fitted to the curve" and may stop working tomorrow. Why do you trade then? I think you have a slight misunderstanding of when one can conclude something is curve fitted and when not.

If you test a strategy and it works over a very large sampling space of price data for one stock but does not work for another stock, would you conclude this is curve fitted even though the standard error under the number of samples and assumed level of confidence clearly point to the fact that the test results are statistically significant? What you are hinting at is that just because the 2 assets under investigation are both stocks it cannot be that one time series exhibits trending properties while the other does not. So then let me ask you, if I can prove to you that with 99% confidence the return correlation between 2 stocks I pick, on the basis of daily data for 10 years, lies within a coefficient of -0.05 and 0.05 you would claim I made a mistake? Or are daily data over 10 years not enough? ;-)

He is explaining to you that you did a non test.
 
I post on Q's that are relevant to the teams that are running for various purposes in various places.

One of the aspects of problem solving is the capital required to cash flow the model being built to solve the problem.

most problems can be modelled, the model documented and a training program established so seekers can come and train and pick up the model. Making all of this convenient for future users of models takes capital.

Extracting capital from many and diverse points is a good idea. Applying it to many and diverse local problems is a good idea.

One of our local participants has taken two teams to Hiati. they triage atthe rateof 1,000 patients in four days. He is now headed to Africa for a couple of wekks.

years ago you saw a runway, small planes and a clinic in Africa that made the news. In that news was Gennie Close's father, an MD. His nurse had Ebola and that clinic put in the fix foe ebola at that time.

notice that money built the runwy, moneybought the planes, the bricks and mortor of the clinic were paid for. The staff was paid for as well.
you didn't see the "concept" though. There were many runways and many clinics and many build out of those clinincs.

you may remember the dates of those events and know thatGennie was very young then and living in Rock Ridge in Greenwich. We who lived in Rock Ridge at that time had resources. We sat in Gennie's granfather's dining room and sketched out the plans for those clinics and the means to network.

four generations (my definition) of assorted people have been using pool extraction to solve local problems. As was said in this thread, people who do PEP and its applications come from all over the world to meet and forward their understanding and share with each other.

here we saw a n))bie go down the tubes in terms of becoming a wealthy practitioner. He is like you, I guess. Your minds have been destroyed vis a vis extracting the offer.

Occasionally, a person learns to learn and he learns the poper drills to extract the offer.

Recently I heard from the IRS. An AIR 15 pages long with 250 pages of attachments. I took them a bout ONE year to compose it and they blew it totally bewcause of their mind's beliefs. They copied 11 pages of BABAK where he commented that he, BABAK, thought my writing was unclear. The IRS wants to know why I didn't educate him with realtime performance information. I wasn't fair to him the IRS claims.

On that web site a person named Procrast explains to BABAK, his personal shortcommings (Procrast doesn't have BABAK's shortcomings)., The IRS ignored Procast's comments and contributions in ET. He was the person who edited the syllabus of SCT into 12 volumes for ET readers.

Making money has several purposes. Usually they are not understood not are the applications of profits.

People who do not have money or can't make money often do not understand the nature of the lives of people who have no handicaps for extracting any amount of money that the market offers. Most people want to be right rather than rich. they are at chpoice. I have never had to make that choice.

a person resently asked a about where people live. He mentioned a few places.

He mentioned Bernardsville...I lived in Washington valley in Morric TWP.

He mentioned a couple od stops along a rr. I lived in rock ridge in Greenwich between the stops he mentioned.

he didn't mention Zurich but I live in Adlisvil in the suburbs. when I worked in PHILLY, I lived in Bucks County and was a founder of the tennis club there.

Like Gann I flew.. not a power plane but a GROB109 glider. I've sailed with the best and I've done one handicapping of the NYYC membership as a courtesy.

Have fun makiing your comments.......

thanks for the laughs jack, I had more fun reading your comments.

So somebody with the acronym BABAK thought your writing was unclear, and the IRS was involved. Oh my stars.

The other day I saw an old man scavanging on the beach with a metal detector wearing speedos and a visor, somehow my subconcious drew a connection to SCT. I was wondering if you could elaborate.
 
that's funny stuff jack, but help this ruined mind please- why would the IRS be trying to determine if BABAK has validity in his accusation about your incomprehensible trading method?
 
oops, post gone (and becky quickly). I guess this is touchy stuff being it's the IRS and actual ET posts are part of the case.... I guess.
 
i prefer not to be associated with you even in terms of idea exchange.

Please put me on ignore and do not address my post, I would appreciate it, thanks!!!

It has been a long time since someone asked Jack not to engage in idea exchange.
