The three questions you asked regarding the post are kind of light weight and not the kind of thing one would expect from anyone who is going to settle down and get really rich.
The fear of trading edge becoming inefficient? The market for a serious professional player is about making yourself rich - sooner not later. Its not about prolonging some idiot treadmill of so-called 'making a living from trading'.
I try to filter out noise myself. Share your experience in other classes like English 501 or Writng for Publication or what the T&C are in your Author's Agreement. Use a black hi liter and cut all the noise and esoteric stuff out to make it easy for the English 101 types in ET. Better still give my post a thorough edit and bring it up to a level where the reader has a simple and easy result where less is more. My point of view is this: Odd, the OP, is a seeker and he is engaging. Any person who is operating in a subjunctive mode with respect to trading, needs, and, after ten pages (@5 per page rate) of being responsive, does deserve to have someone (who has a comprehensive and deep view of how to make money by trading in an expert manner) lay out the critical considerations that are required to get to the top of the pile. Incidentally, it has been generally acknowledged that this takes hard work doing critical thinking. You like needles but you lack a mental magnet. I, on the other hand, do not provide needles and I dont do haystack either. They took the trouble to get you out of haystacks in English 101, why persist is writing responses as if you failed English 101? I require any serios reader of what I write to read and study it repeatedly. You have simply decided to not do the work and I do not care.
Well, if you're so clever, you would understand that those "three questions" are actually the same one question, no need to separate them into three paragraphs and write a book about them. Those are very simple questions, so KISS. I have read many difficult texts, some of them extremely complex stuff, and you know what? They made sense. If your text needs to be re-read 10 times, that is not my problem of not understanding, but your problem of not being able to express yourself in clear and sound way. Simple as that.
Translation: I like the way I write and could care less if anyone else does even if I'm the only one who understands what I'm saying. It makes me feel superior to those of you who don't have my intellectual prowess even if I'm not making sense. After all, I'm an expert who's has amassed a fortune trading and that requires you to bow down to my wisdom I impart on you and the other drones here at ET. If I had found this link first, I could have saved a few minutes posting on this thread. http://www.tradersnarrative.com/jack-hersheys-incomprehensible-method-971.html Eloquently and concisely told in the spirit of truth by the blogger.
That alone would be the final and complete answer! The fear is probably due to worrying edges becoming inefficient before achieving the goal!
