Why the controversy? Jack Hershey SCT system works just fine.

Quote from Trader666:

Oh please... after 7 1/2 weeks and 263 trades it's made a whopping $1264 BEFORE COMMISSIONS. What a ringing endorsement. ROTFLMAO!!!

Click on the "see all" link in the system developer section where it says:

Vendor has created 3 other systems. (See all)

And you'll see 3 more great systems -- NOT!



P.S. The system's called spyder and it claims to use "Jack Hershey's method" but the developer calls itself Pedro Pannon. Probably an alias for deniability when it blows up like the other systems.

According to C2 , profit after commissions is $ 855
How can that be when you make 263 trades * $5 typical commission = 1315 ?!
 
Quote from Pekelo:

That is probably $1264 more than what you made. :)

But anyway, according to the vendor, the system was rescaled, thus the statistical discrepancy. According to C2, it still wins 2 out of 3 times with a higher than 5 Sharpe.....

It might not be a very good system, but so far it has been profitable. That's what you guys wanted from Jack, right?
Thank you for your sincere, professional, unbiased analysis Pekelo. I have a feeling it is going to be around for a long-time. :p

And btw, for the mathematically impaired that comes out to approximately $4.81 per trade (not factoring in commissions). :D

And as far as what we want is concerned, it isn't a marginally profitable system such as what has been described here ... it is for him to stop talking shit and making outrageous statements of extreme profitability, none of which (obviously) has been substantiated in the real world.

Jack, there's a challenge for you over at chit chat..... lets see if you take it up....
Nah, you get the automatic win on that one ... Jack/Grob has displayed the same patern for years ... I told overbydare what his story really is. :)
 
Wow, you guys are so desperate to believe that your denial is stunning... 263 trades in 7 1/2 weeks have made a whopping $1264 BEFORE COMMISSIONS and that's supposed to back up Hershey's delusions of grandeur? What about pool extraction? Or did Jack mean cesspool extraction? I wouldn't drive after drinking all that koolaid if I were you.

yes jack is hard to understand

yes SCT is like a cult and most of the sct'ers here are acting like cultists

yes there a lot of nebulous concepts

yes you need to carry a umbrella during your ''journey'' because its raining bullshit

yes there is no solid proof of anything provided by anyone

yes it appears there is more failing than winning


but what i worked on and created following the very basic stuff i read on the numerous JH threads, works good.

thats all i need.
 
A few more pearls...

"There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which
cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance-- that principle is
contempt prior to investigation." - Herbert Spencer, British philosopher
"The security provided by a long-held belief system, even when poorly
founded, is a strong impediment to progress. General acceptance of a
practice becomes the proof of its validity, though it lacks all other
merit." - Dr. B. Lown, invented defibrillator
"There are some people that if they don't know, you can't tell 'em."
- Louis Armstrong
