  2. This seems like a little extra work for the mods ( @Magna ), but what a great idea! Mods, if this suggestion could be implemented, it would do the thread a great justice as it would bring in more related posts and readers.

    A win-win really, for all.

    Thanks in advance,

    Alpha.

    Unfortunately the new forum software does not allow the splitting-off of posts from threads as the previous software did. It wasn't used much but from time to time it was handy, and would've been nice to have that function here. So let's let sleeping dogs lie so to speak, and return to the topic of Automated Trading. If Jack wants to post whatever it is Jack likes to post he will need to do it on another thread, even better if he starts his own and sticks to it.

    I haven't found any indicators, whether concocted by myself or others, that can find anything that I cannot see in a chart.

    I don't understand that. What I am doing in my trading now is remarkable basic. My edge is mostly that I rely heavily on automation and keeping my costs low. I am not particularly creative.

    I think it helps to think outside the box, and that comes naturally to me because I'm something of a misfit. But I'm also envious of the more creative types. If we're doing the same things in the same way as everyone else, we tend to have the same outcomes.

  10. "Same things" and "Same way" to me is charting and data series as a core everyone uses.One averages another and all that soup is boiling in the common pool called Market.
