Why do folks reveal Profitable Strategies, are they NUTS?

First sign of senility Jacky, posting imaginary attachments, second times a charm

Any chance you could list your credentials in psychology, economics etc... seeing as you spout views on those subjects with such authority? (just being old is not a credential)

So much of that is just claptrap Jack, denigrating books for instance is ludicrous, they are an important step along the path to becoming profitable... I pity anyone that takes you seriously and believes your rubbish just because you say it in a manner that "appears" intellectual

Seriously, there is a lot more to that decision than one can glibly explain in a thread, let alone one post. I have the utmost respect for everybody who honestly tries to teach trading methods inside this forum, but imo a public forum is not at all suitable for focused nuts & bolts.

That of course is my opinion, but trying to teach with clarity & focus while outsiders chime in and interject inside other's threads is disruptive, destructive and counter-productive.

Public forums are great for camaraderie and bits & pieces of knowledge. As a classroom type setting? Take a look at every method thread posted to date and see how focused and on track it remains.

Just curious then what was your reason for posting the trade if you have no wish to discuss it? OK we're impressed.

When has anyone here ever revealed a profitable strategy?

Forex,

There are many known opening range strategies that have been profitable for years. Look them up.
 
Nobody reveals profitable trading strategies. One thing you can be sure of is that if someone has written a book about a trading strategy or published on the web about one, that strategy is no better than random. All profitable strategies are kept secret, they are not published, they are not patented and they are only spoken about in the most general terms.

Best example is that Mark Fisher's book called the Logical Trader. he details his system but does not give details on where he sets his A UP/Down and mentions it is based on a proprietary system. So he may take you 90 yards, but he will still hold back the key parts the make him unique :D
