What is the big picture?

he-he you asking my definition of holy grail?

its a set of patterns and rules that work most of the time (probably 80-90%) and the method based on them should be scalable and universal

I've seen a bit of work on cycles (and what not) that is truly remarkable stuff...It's very hard to google and get the actual specifics of how these guys do their calculations and routinely nail highs/lows, but it's probably the most impressive stuff I've seen.

There is however a little 10-20% deterioration.

major deterioration that we should be concern about is the one of a trader not the one of the method

Infinite abundance should be enough for everyone !

it should, no kidding, but the fastness of execution along with the proper application of the method will become the main problem - after inventing and sharing the design of the bicycle one will soon find out that there are others who are just better bicyclists...

It reminds that I used to win each & every bicycle race against my friends when I was less than a teen. They all wanted my bike. I said Ok. We exchanged but nothing to be done. Still won.

Maybe the big picture is just trade, eventually I'll figure it out. There is no secret, everyone trades their own way. I've literally avoided day trading as much as possible, but all my research observation of the markets makes my strategy best suited to day trading. On this journey I've evolved a lot now I'm just narrowing my approach...there are no secrets huh? Just trade till you become profitable or go broke and go home, I guess in this case the poor house.

Just keep trading small until you find out what you need to know. When you do find your epiphanies, they will be much different than the one's I discovered, and maybe even better! Stay obsessed and keep trading small...it sounds like your're on your way...but no one knows how long it will actually take? As far as secrets...I'll give you one secret...every once in awhile a temporary edge will be exploited at some prop firm...the news will spread and many members will be printing money until the edge evaporates. This use to happen in the old days...don't know how things are now? I know...not much of a secret.
