I forgot to comment on this stupidity. "Worse than random" compares to the statistics of those random sequences obtained by tossing a coin. You do not throw a coin to get worse than random you numbchuk.
Why is somebody always ending a sentence with the word "numbchuk"? Like "numbchuk" is kinda like his signature?
The spread on any instrument is always exactly 1 tick, how did you get 1/5 of a tick? Round trip comm on ES is ~$4 with IB, thats 1/3 of a tick, so the spread + comm = 1 1/3 ticks, thats sufficient to destroy most day traders in the long run. And obviously trading less frequently will always increase your winning odds, but its difficult to make a decent living doing that when market volatility is so low.
Blah! Blah! Blah! You most certainly may! You can flip a coin 100 times and draw heads 80% of the time. 50% is only assured as the number of flips tend to infinity, assuming a perfectly balanced coin.
