Eh, the fewer people looking for it, the better. I hope everyone listens to you. I also hope they aren't stupid enough to give you any money to manage.

I don't manage other people's money.

In all honesty Surf, how in the holy hell can a trader have a method that they trade that is only half done? Entries without exit plans?

You have a system that is 1/2 thought out...the other half guessing.

Yes, 1/ 2 is objective, 1/2 is subjective. surf

Yes, from outside the group, only interested in objective, programmable methods with edge. Our internal work is just that---

Look, people don't go around talking about "my contribution to trading" if they don't want to manage OPM at some point. So, you aren't doing so now, doesn't mean you aren't angling to in the future.

And, so you can get a sense of what it's like sitting on the other side of this discussion with you, if you deny that you want to, I'll claim I don't believe you.

Yeah, the nickname for "price drivers" should be "cotton candy", since it seems about as substantive.

Nah, I love the markets and trading. So. I do my best to improve things and help fellow traders advance.

We invest in working, proven edges that are far greater than we could ever develop in house. Not to mention not having the infrastructure and redundancy to interest those with the capital to invest. Direct management of OPM has no interest for me---indirect--its what i do. surf surf
