  2. Of course I've factored in everything.

    1 million lines of code, 198 different black box scenarios, and I plan on selling this to GS for a cool 3 billion.

    But, for a limited time, I will sell each line of code for only 100k each.

    I am a forex trading noob.......i will be richer than all central banks combined!!!!

    how can this system fail with real money??

    impossible

    That works until it doesn't.

    After the EURUSD topped out just above 1.600 in early 2008, I know a few people who bought it around 1.5500 as it started to fall. They were waiting for the inevitable bounce back into profitability. They either took a big loss or they're still waiting while it's over 3,000 pips in the hole.

  6. I never use stops (unless I have added to a winner and then I just put it at BE) but that doesn't mean I never take losses, and many times those losses are far greater than what I would have taken if I had got stopped out.

    The problem with stops is, you are exiting exactly when you should be entering.

    You can get away with trading without stops, but the price you pay for that luxury is size.

    And that was Martingales old problem, "How much to start with?"

  7. Can I just start a website and post these numbers and then put on a disclaimer: This may be hypothetical, blah, blah, blah...

    lol.

    then i will get a real account after i get all my loyal subscribers. trade live really small, and if i lose I will tell them the better trades are at like 3 a.m.

    GS is watching this thread!!!! They will send me a PM soon!!!

    Once i'm up 100% in a few months or whatever, the world will be mine.

    How some of you clowns don't get my "humor" is funny.

    So buy my book!!! I am the greatest sim forex trader ever!!

  8. well, first of all, your "humor" isn't that funny.

    If you are still amazed at how many scam artists there are out there, then I suppose to you it is funny.

    Most of us have moved beyond that, and so for us, it is no longer funny.

    But yes, we are very impressed that you are smarter than the average guy, even though that is a pretty low bar, and not really saying much.

    Congratulations, you are now smarter than a dumb ass.

  9. In life, you can take the crazy bitter, mean road and be mad at the world until you die.

    Or you can laugh, smile, and enjoy things.....

    Hey, free country.....go ahead and continue your dark road.

    god bless you my son.

    i will mention you in my sermon.
