You guys REALLY need to be more analytical like me...

[Girija]

Why is there so much touchey-feeley emotional female talk on this forum? Threads like "When is the obvious not so obvious" and "Traders say trading ain't what it used to be".

Stop that goofy shiat. Do you think you are really going to find any way to beat the market by creating those threads? Do you think somebody is going to give you some great pearl of truth in those threads?

I got news for you.... NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

You guys need to more analytical like me. Download Excel. Download stock, fund, futures, currency, option or whatever prices you can get off finance.yahoo.com in Excel format and START TESTING. Or whatever your backtesting program/method of choice is. Try and find some REAL alpha.

You are not a female, and this is not AA. We are not here to console you emotionally because you haven't made it, haven't found any alpha. We are here to, when you DO find something via your backtesting, to sign off on whether we think it might be legit or whether it was instead a fluke, like curve-fitting, not enough data to provide a proper test size, you missed this other important piece of data, etc. etc.

Cut the emotional crap women and GET TESTING like I do!!!

P.S., do NOT bring up GME. That was probably the only time in my life when I made a trade/investment just for shiats and giggles, WITHOUT logic, discipline, and testing, and it bit me in the arse. Learn from that as I have.

Most despicable male chauvinistic characterization. Is being a female so despicable than your retarded GME short?. Go ask your mother if she felt despicable when you were born.
You have no respect from me.
Think retard. think

And your rants about TQQQ was equally retarded too if no one has said so.

Perhaps the "real" solution is to get LESS analytical...as I would advocate.

KISS, baby. As always.

Years ago I read some sage wisdom about some old-timer who recommended.... "Simplify your method as much as possible. When you've done that, simplify again!"

Sometimes the most sophisticated approach is the distillation down to the most simple!

Absolutely, there is no way around this.

However, finding our own profitable trading system from scratch could take decades of research, chart studying and testing, trust me on this one fellow traders.

1) Nobody is more analytic than Salty BAE.

B. Nobody can arb Lira against a latte better than t-rex

III) If you two started a hedge a muh fund we'd all be out of business.

lol to the troll feeders attempting to offer legit comments to a misogyny/troll thread. The dude can't balance a checkbook. His one published trade blew out in spectacular fashion.

And to the Taleb fan base... ask him his return while at Paloma.

Mods, move this "thread" to chit chat.

Trading the markets successfully is all about having a simple set of rules... which correlate with "usual market behavior"... which are simple enough that you can execute them with discipline. All else is folly.

Yes.

But to get there you DO have to analyze tons and tons of data first.

And we are back to square one: backtest, backtest and more bactest, OP original advice precisely.

No doubt, the man knows what he is talking about, and I couldn't agree more.

I bet you have 2 or 3 decision points that would have or actually have defined your wealth today.

80 / 20 Baby!

taleb lied about his returns in March and he still underperformed the long short guy Bill Ackman

i'm not sure why you respect that. he's not standing in front of a bunch of tanks in the name of democracy.

You truly believe that the Elite will enslave us with tanks and other Army stuff, when a simple digital currency (call it Bitcoin if you like) and an RFID chip implanted in our body will do?

Come on...
