    You can edit your posts w/o addressing it. That's your prerogative, but clearly it was sim or you are FOS.

  2. I don’t give a rats ass what you do, just pointing out SIM and live fills aren’t the same. Doubling and quadrupling to get back to even isn't going to get you a Big Squack, meal deal.

    I have no dog in this fight, I just don't think you should accuse his approach without any demonstrated evidence. Him blowing up doesn't mean the approach is bad. Lot's of others couldn't make high R:R work either and I don't see you accused @SteveH been not real?

    Have you mathematically analyzed and ran any tests on his approach? I have. I am probably the only person on ET actually worked out the probability functions, the optimum expectancy, ran the statistical tests (1 yr sim) and a short two months' live tests to verify the validity and verified sim = live, for me.

    I don't owe you anything, I am not asking anyone for money, or asking you to believe me. Why should I show you the AUM in my account?

    I also want to point out, indicting his results vs indicting his approach are two completely different things.

    There isn't a realistic sim-trading platform extant unless you're marketable. His "method" isn't testable, so no, I can't backtest a subjective method in which the owner blew out in a month. So "do what I say not what I do"?

    Implied pullbacks... FFS. That may be the dumbest snake oil on ET to date. Was he mugged en route to defining it here?

    Draw some channels on a chart and miraculously sell the top tick and buy the bottom tick of the channel violation.

    I don't care about all of those. The key question is if there is a mathematical proof of <1 R:R and expectancy vs time of holding vs IV vs....

    Think distribution function, think options.

    Short answer is yes but I won't show you my computions.

    And I don't have to market anything, sir.

    You lost all of us at implied vol. Who would define the distribution using IV/SV?

    Don't answer, please. Give your ducats to volzpri.

    I am glad you are lost.

    Let's stop the discussions here. It is good if you all believe I am talking nonsense. :D:D:D

    Why do you care so much? Doesn't affect your P&L.

    Unless you just want to rage.
