  1. Oh, no, I own both my vehicles outright and I can only expect the price to go up from here because these things are trading at cab

  3. I don't normally lower myself to this sort of debate, but I'm feeling combatitive so what the hell.

    Yes, I made more than you did this month. Not that it proves anything, which you would know if you had an understanding on the statistical significance of trading profitability... like a quant would.

    You know Rob, you and SML have something in common - you both write Systems. Maybe thats where the similarity ends. SML's Systems didn't work according to him, but he still sold them, for $20K each :wtf:

    By the way Rob, SML is an avid reader as we all know, do you know any good Books you could recommend him :p

    Dude, pls. I also get sucked into a pissing contest once in a while but this is just a clown fiesta. You´ve looked at the other side long enough to know that the people you´re arguing with is just dumb flow.
    And "quants" are actually paying cold hard cash to be able to trade against these monkeys.
    So pour yourself a cold one and enjoy the fact that they still exist.

  6. I'm the one who is posting projections and nailing them. I'm the one in the (2008) Lambo. As far as I'm concerned until I start seeing some charts and projections you guys are just a bunch of blah blah losing traders because if you can't read a chart you can't make money whether a "Quant" or not. :)

    Play your Cards right and SML might sell you one the Systems he's already sold.

  9. Sure

    My full list of positions is published daily here: https://github.com/robcarver17/reports/blob/master/Risk_report

    My full list of 'projections' is here https://github.com/robcarver17/reports/blob/master/Strategy_report
    Scroll down to 'subystem position', the figure 'combined forecast' is between -20 (strong bearish signal) and +20 (strong bullish).

    I can't 'read' a chart - I use automated trading rules that take price history as an input - but I have made money. You know that around 95% of the professional funds and traders on this planet don't 'read' charts, right? They eithier use systematic strategies based around price, or price + fundamentals, or they use discretionary strategies based around fundamentals (fundies or macro). The number of discretionary technical professional traders is tiny. So on the other hand we have the vast majority of the professional trading industry, including several multi billionaires, and one the other hand we have you with your one month track record.

  10. Good Morning globalarbtrader,

    Proper debate is good for the soul.

    Good work buddy.

    Good to see a Quant trader making money for the month. I never seen or heard of such traders.

    I have absolutely ZERO understanding of statistical significance of trading profitability and I do NOT want to ever in my life understand what that means. Sounds like TOO much work and comprehension. Easier to just stare at the chart and guess and click buy and sell button.

    Lets get rich!!
