how dare you, HOW DARE YOU you thread starting bastard, ask for my edge you may be able to get some people to give you their half/ass strategy but my edge and real edge of real traders you will never get, not even for million cash. how dare you even have audacity to ask you lazy bum
I use these 2 rather consistently 1) Close eyes and place finger on the monitor. Draw straight line at the point of contact. If price above line, buy. If price below line, sell. 2) Flip a coin. Heads I buy at the open of the next 15 minute bar. Tails I sell at the open of the next 15 minute bar. No I'm not kidding. And No, I won't share the money and trade management aspect of these systems.
The vast amount of "edges" that exist in the market (some might argue all the edge that exist) is there because of a very high barrier to entry with respect to either very specific knowledge, capital, technology, opportunity and/or relationships. As such, even if people really did tell you their "edge" (99.9% of customers have no edge), you very likely wouldn't be able to utilize it anyway, hence the reason that it even exists in the first place.
if you are not just edge-fishing, why don't you come up with a full setup to test the idea on your own?
Take a look through my journal and of every forecast the "Chrystal Ball" I use has made. Do I believe in an " edge", you're damned right mister. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=65265&perpage=6&pagenumber=26 Rennick out
I predict that all systems will quit working 4 billion years from now when the solar system goes supernova.
