Universal Trend Trading

Quote from bwolinsky:

$500k to $200k is a 60% drawdown. In fact a $300,000 loss, so if you can't explain the fake equity curve you posted, that alone removes the legitimacy and premise of this thread, because that's not what I see here. I see a $300,000 loss and a 60% drawdown. You started at $500k, and now at $200k.
"Fake equity" - it's not fake, as much as it is a backtest of only S&P. Already explained that.

I'm sure I saw a post of yours where you claimed that your drawdown was 40%. Then obviously you either edited the post or had it removed. Regardless, this is not what is important here. You accused me first if you do not remember that. I was only trying to point to the fact that your drawdown was excessive and unreasonable by any standards. Then you said that your system can lose up to 70%. Obviously you are a psychologically unstable individual and you should seek help.

There is one post when I say I have 40% DD. Care to look what was my account value at the time?

2011 was bad for trend following, won't post a link here, but there is a blog that summarizes well known trend followers. Have a look. In 2011 I lost about 25%.

Yes, my system can have 70% drawdown. Are you claiming that I'm psychologically unstable because I can take more heat? If so - fine, if not - please explain.

Attention everyone!

Proof that luckyputanski is a disgusting liar.

Luckyputanski just claimed that he has been trading for 8 years. But this is what he claimed late last year:

AND FINALLY HIS REAL PURPOSE IN ET IS REVEALED HERE:

http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=229134&perpage=6&pagenumber=4

This grand loser wants to teach others how to lose 60% in 8 months and he goes around throwing accusations because he wants to be left alone doing his sh*t all over ET.
Yes, 2004 - first account, lost money with neuimex, learning for about 4 years.
September 2008 - opened account with decent starting balance, money that would hurt if I lost. Verifiable track record from September 2008. Do you see how my learning period is not relevant to the thread in the first link?
Teaching - yes, I teach people how to trade. At every class I show them my account, so they know I'm profitable. Unfortunately, people from ET are not my prospective customers - my course is in Polish.
I see you went to great lengths to try to discredit me. Sorry it didn't work. Now, are you going to open your journal or not?

The curve does not match the magnitude of the loss.

Your journal starts at $500,000 and goes to $200,000. This is not reflected in the equity curve you posted.

The post from this one below where you misrepresent your actual results:

Quote from luckyputanski:

It has been working last 40 years on 25 different markets. It has been profitable on S&P last 223 years. It works on majority of stocks. It has been working on S&P 2000 - 2010. Thanks for your insight, but I will stick with my system.

The SP chart from that post does not show a 60% drawdown, and you are misrepresenting your performance.

It doesn't get much more clueless than this, putanski. Thinking of asking EMG to add your seminar to list of scams.

Whatever. Your -60% was your max drawdown approximately.

Nobody should pay you a dollar for your seminars. You're a terrible trader.

So euros? It's still overvalued and if you were truthful about your results they'd know beforehand it isn't worth it to pay anything.
