RTS Algorithmic Trading Webinar

Discussion in 'Automated Trading' started by travis, May 16, 2009.

  1. We all got over the initial euphoria of the initial interaction and we had to settledown and put our shoulders to the dashboard and its lighting.

    We waited two days for rain and we had kites of all colors and keys attached to our kite strings.

    Finally, at midnight the rains precipitated the components, the degrees of freedom and a lot if kite strings got mixed up and it was hard to unravel them.

    Also our keg got hit by lightening and blew the bung hole wide open.

    Duty bound, we reported out our work. We chose the background color of ET for all numbering right then and there since is just dawned on us after missing a whole night's sleep.

  2. Here's another example of you getting your facts wrong.

    About a month after Roughtrader started his journal, you proclaimed:
    "For SCT like trading, rough trader takes 1500 dollars to 94,000 dollars"
    http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2399521&#post2399521

    Which, of course, was bullshit. But even in response to me setting the record straight, you still wrote:
    "Bottom line: looks like roughtrader makes 20,000 a month on two contracts average while scaling out of entries on his ATS."

    Reality Check: As of 05/21/2009, Roughtraders "To-Date PNL" AFTER 2 MONTHS is $4,249.64 USD

    How is this $20K/month? How was this ever $20K/month?

  3. None of the sub teams reported back to the lead team the "indicator curvature" before the "hard right edge" is reached.

    We ALL appreciate your jumping the chain of command to get "indicator curvature" on the engineering change sheet.

    We will put it ahead of the indicator triad sequences.

  6. So you've gone from:

    "For SCT like trading, rough trader takes 1500 dollars to 94,000 dollars"

    To:

    "Bottom line: looks like roughtrader makes 20,000 a month on two contracts average while scaling out of entries on his ATS"

    To:

    "Rough trader is only making a couple thousand a month on a couple of contracts. He needs to make one adjustment to make 20,000 a month. He needs to add 18 contracts to his trading cars"

    ROTFLMAO!!!!!

  7. You keep sidestepping this... where is ScottD now? His last post on ET was a status report in March where he wrote that your "cash cow" wasn't working:

    Each logic release has had some profitable days and flashes of brilliance, but the logic has not been profitable over a sustained multi-week forward test or multi-month back test period.

    You can try to joke and spin that any way you want but it just goes to show how detached from reality your posts are.

  10. You are correct I sidestepped it..

    The 06MAY09 chart says nothing new. Those trades just do what roughtrader's ATS does as well.

    I'm sure there is indicator curvature ... we will start a quant forum and do indicator curvature.
