  1. So since u consider yourself a savant - and no other savant u know seems to have this issue-- why are u the exception then?

  2. To cut to the chase, why don't you just LiveStream your desktop during a trading session rather than capturing/editing a bunch of videos? There was another thread awhile back about some guy who (allegedly) swings a big stick in the ES and broadcasts in that fashion. I can't tell if it's a live account or not, but I've compared it to my own TOS feed when he's live and it tracks pretty much dead on with what I'm seeing. As long as you could give indication that it's a live account and can tell when you enter/exit, there's no need to give away any trade secrets or your method or whatever.

    Seems like that would be a pretty much proof or lack thereof for all concerned.

    There's nothing wrong with relative performance if that's your stated goal. But I doubt that's the case with this bozo.

  4. Pardon, but that's BS. None of us are managing equity mutual funds.

  5. Let me simply state that I doubt your veracity and leave it at that.

  6. Right, and I intend on being the 15th Dalai Lama.

    All you've shown is that the vast majority of your sim accounts failed. I don't know what makes you think that you can even maintain profitability let alone win something.

  7. Well if you're not into winning those kinds of championships I am going to take a moment and review what I need to make to win this year's world cup.

  8. Yes, Tim Rea with a little under a double. I can probably beat that...<b><i><u>THIS YEAR.</b></i></u>

    I view my stuff as an overlay on a long only strategy. But everyone does things differently and comes from a different perspective. When the market is up 2% I have to be up > 2%. When the market is down 2% I have to be down < 2%.

    It doesn't matter really as long as your benchmark is consistant over time and with your objectives.

    Atticus showed a bunch of your portfolios that are down money. Why don't you show the one that's up money?
