It probably doesn't matter, IMHO, since traders are imperfect and can therefore screw up even perfect systems.

The trading cosmos is an evolutionary cosmos. So let us have a look at similar environments:


(1) Which is the perfect animal?

(2) Which is the perfect plant?

(3) Who is the perfect girl?


Answers:

(1) Bulls or bears are an obvious choice. Bull is delicious, bear is something that I have never tasted.

(2)

(3) Would you use the criteria of Keynes, or would you stand up for your own beliefs?

#2 is cute! I've got a friend who's making a ton of $$ selling it in Northern California. If it were only legal here in good 'ol boy Texas! Probably after I'm dead & gone.

After all, it's what you learn AFTER you know it all, that counts!

Don't be so cynical ...

In a State where ...

birth control cannot be mentioned in sex education ...

lawmakers want to change history books to put Joe McCarthy in a better light than Thomas Jefferson...

a large number of people believe that Noah had dinosaurs on the Ark...


It could happen...

Two, wow That is like the guy who had 9 winning trades and declared himself "successful" now at trading.



Why not put it on C2, charge $1000-2000 a month and cap it at say 100 extra contracts so it won't distort your method while also bringing in an extra 100k a month...

It actually works, you can sell it again and again.

I can't recollect seeing the trades. Could you show/announce the trades again ?
