Like I said a complete waste of time. No professional traders here. Seems like he cut a huge loser short. Great trait of a successful trader. By the way instead of reading books about how great these market wizards are some of them actually ...

It sounds like yout learned to be profitable from the same person I did. Simplicity, money management, execute, Kelly position sizing, chaos theory, lots of backtesting e.t.c. One thing though.... that person also taught me the importance of cutting ...

There are 0 successful 'traders' who spend a lot of time on FF. There may be one or two who know how to make profits, but knowing how and actually doing it are two different things. One or two have surely passed through but once they realize what a ...

This thread sings to me. On another note, if you can't beat what these trend following funds make why are you even trading? Just give your money to one of these managers and sit back and enjoy life. No disrespect to anybody in this thread just ...

My bad. All I know is trend following. I know nothing of reversion to the mean systems. Apologies.

I enjoy quietly reading your posts but.....I really have to disagree with those lines. Those are the definition of curve fitting and curve fitting will sooner or later kill you in this business.You don't want to curve fit your strategy to the recent ...

I've been trading for about 8 years now.The first 5 were a waste trading pinbars and 'price action'.Then I discovered that in order to trade successfully I needed robust,objective,mechanical systems with no curve fitting that would work into the ...

It would appear we come at trading from two different perspectives G.You pay attention to losses whereas not letting winners run as far as possible or getting taken out by some swing before the big move is what keeps me up at night. My stops are ...

As trend followers you have to deal with lots of small losses. Like Copernicus did today I also will cut my loser on FF. As some final thoughts....when a casino is putting in a new game or machine do you think they just make up a fair game and put ...
