  3. It is true that trading is not a business, but it should be treated like a business to win. A large percentage (95%?) lose.

  4. To the OP:

    Signals matter little. You are researching the wrong area.

    Successful trading is successful money management. You should research things like reward:risk ratios and position sizing and bother less about technical indicators.

    Candle,

    Enlightening post. Do you know of any threads here on our beloved ET that touch this topic in an intelligent fashion, I would like to expand my studies.

    Thx

    I submit to the OP that it is impossible that he/she would give me all of their net worth (assuming there is anything there to begin with) in return for nothing.

    I dare you to prove me otherwise.

    Your trolling post is just as ridiculous as mine and frankly quite similar in pathology.

  8. The indicators you have mentioned were devised by authors who wanted to sell books. I have created several really cool looking indicators myself, that are just as accurate as the published ones. And just as unprofitable.

    Profitable indicators, the ones that really do spit out a green light for buy and red light for sell, have been created by actual profitable traders. And they aren't publishing their golden goose.
