My returns speak for themselves. But the smart money wants bells and whistles along with great returns. Looks like I will be trademarking the name instead of filing a patent. I didn't really know the difference between both, and I'm sure most Hedge Fund managers out there wouldn't know much about patent filing either.
I am the manager of a small baseball team. I have developed a Secret Proprietary Drafting System, what I can use for taking advantage of undiscovered (and lowly priced) talent when drafting new players. So we get more bang for our bucks and be able to compete against richer teams. I would like to patent this system, so no other team could use it, thus I can keep my edge. Any help would be appreciated... P.S.: If you own a team in Boston this time your 12 million bucks offer will be accepted....
Yeah.. I understand where you are getting at. But, I never wanted to reveal the inner workings of the system to anyone. I just wanted to trademark the name for marketing purposes.
Ripley, According to this thread http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=49314&perpage=10&pagenumber=1 from a few years ago, $50 was a lot of money to you and you were borrowing money from your credit card to fund your account and now, you are a money manager and have developed the holy grail. Why am I even answering this thread?
Is this one of Baron's aliases Hits must have dropped. If not, you should be locked up for your own safety.
So you are asking us if you can trademark a name? Of course, you can. But you can't trademark a trading strategy, a baseball drafting strategy or a football offensive strategy. End of thread....
