Trading Lingo for the 21st Century

The B-Team's noble objective on ET needs no definition: "We seek the total edgification of ET!"

 

Kindly pardon my little tour de farce. I don't trade range-bound days well, my trend-day triggers are ominously silent, and I am going slowly mad with boredumb. But I am having a little fun coding up the inverse of a famous trend trading system. I may post the results at EOD.

 

Inexplicably, I forgot the skill I am proudest of, edgification, the art of converting trading intuition to edges, as in:
"In his middle age, Hypostomus wasted many years of his precious waning life in futile attempts at SCT edgification."

 

and now you are wasting precious years talking about the precious years you wasted

Finally, I leave as exercises for the student the proper definition and usage of "edgified," "edgeated," "edgeiphile," "edgeomic," "edgeonomic," and "edgeominious."

 

Rodion and jjf, all I can think of in retort is "Edgecrement!"

 

Ah, low literary criticism is such an inspiration! How does one feel when one posits, codifies, optimizes, backtests and successfully forward tests an edge? Why, "edgestatic," of course.

 

Obviously my critics are non-believers in edges, what we on the B-Team call "edgyists." "SCT as a trading philosophy is egregiously edgyistic' comes to mind.

 

LuckyGirl asked me in a PM what really I look like, as in print I project this aura of sagacity and profundity. Sorry to disappoint. More like sag-ass-ity.
