From 19-ene-2011 21:21:57 GMT This chakra is very bearish. Sell GBP/USD Sell GBP/JPY Stop Loss 40 pips. The use of Stop Loss is very important.
Are you fucking stupid? Forget your damn discussions. What's that going to PROVE? He's FORWARD testing it in a public journal for all to see. Open to criticism and screwballs like you. Plenty more than you're doing. All you're doing is stirring up trouble. He's trading it and giving to have some REAL results here. Get off his back and show some respect. Your problem is that all you want to do is bitch and moan about what science says. Meanwhile, we're finding out first hand instead. Now shut your mouth and go somewhere else. It's guys like you that fuck the world up.
yes it is. Stop/Loss is one of the few ways maintain a reliable edge. R:R and $w:$L are the keys to the equation. You're looking for 1.5R+ moves (1.5*Risk). Risk is obviously the stop. Default is 1R system @ 50% is breakeven. I have Sunday has a bearish cycle using a different strategy, but the underlying trend is strong up so it might be a fight again like it was early this week. We'll see thanks again. Really appreciate the thread and if it helps I think we need to put that guy on ignore. BTW: Here's the moon thread I was talking about http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=76224&highlight=moon "trading the moon" Been proven to work.
lol yup, that's the main goal. Tough to do but would be darn near the holy grail if done consistently
On Sundays that the Jets beat the Patriots in the Playoffs, the S&P has never breached the 1300 level when the moon is in the seventh house, and jupiter aligns with mars. So based on that I am all in short, with my broker whose main office is in Venus.
Explain what filtering an edge means in this context, as far I understand it does not adress the two issues I raised: 1)a few winners does not mean the strategy is profitable 2)the OP uses many input so without knowing th exact rules, we don't know how much importance the moon input has
