This thread started as commentary, Kudos To MMs. It then turned into this sort of "pensees". Maybe that was the error. A file on the web that was guaranteed to be there and accessible from where ever I am would work, and the caretaker would have to be stable so that it didn't go out of business. Is there a free repository of places to keep files accessible using a browser? I should just do a Google blog. Maybe it is time...
Ok, I just started a Google blog: http://twinetrading.blogspot.com/2010/11/trading.html Will post there from now on instead of this thread.
I am not saying there is anything wrong with what you are doing overall , its just the location of your posts will get hits from anyone, I would think that the journal section here is more appropriate. Good trading either way.
nitro got another SUBSTANTIAL loser building up.... Check it out. http://twinetrading.blogspot.com/2010/11/trading.html
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You have 2 years of this thread. So why you stop now? Who care what some poster say?
nitro packed up his toys, his security blanket, his pacifier and probably cried until his mamma picked him up and let him suck some nip..... After a quick snack from the mamory farm, nltro set up his new blog at http://twinetrading.blogspot.com/2010/11/trading.html but locked everyone out..... nitro: dude, make it a subscription service. certainly more profitable than the trading seems to be.....
Reminds me of the guys who try to build perpetual motion machines, to me this quote shows a seriously disturbed mind.
according to Wiki: There is undisputed scientific consensus that perpetual motion would violate either the first law of thermodynamics, the second law of thermodynamics, or both. In finance, the efficient-market hypothesis (EMH) asserts that financial markets are "informationally efficient". That is, one cannot consistently achieve returns in excess of average market returns on a risk-adjusted basis, given the information publicly available at the time the investment is made. There are three major versions of the hypothesis: "weak", "semi-strong", and "strong". Weak EMH claims that prices on traded assets (e.g., stocks, bonds, or property) already reflect all past publicly available information. Semi-strong EMH claims both that prices reflect all publicly available information and that prices instantly change to reflect new public information. Strong EMH additionally claims that prices instantly reflect even hidden or "insider" information. There is evidence for and against the weak and semi-strong EMHs, while there is powerful evidence against strong EMH.
I don't think this is appropriate. For one, nitro is trying something and he deserves credit for that, and for putting himself out there. Second, trying to build a perpetual motion machine, even with the prior knowledge that it's impossible, may not be a wasted effort as much can be learned through the process of trying. It's fine to criticize his system, but not ok to criticize him.
