  1. His book is . . . Covel's isn't.

    The provisional patent information was online before it was purposely let expire before completing the process. The goal was to not releasethe code to open source the in 2026. But you knew this already because it was clearly stated in the thread and you said you read.

  2. Sorry, I read the thread along time ago and forget what us in it. But anyway,I'll wait for the book in july that digs thru the BS on elite. He is a very skilled investigative journalist. I see a geraldo type show exposing the ridiculous claims of cranks and charlatans coming soon....

  3. It's evident you have forgotten most of what was in the thread.

    It's impossible to expose a method or system you have never tried to test yourself.

    Most of the leading people in their field thought Fleming's mold was junk science but once they tested it, they changed their minds.

  7. The more I follow the performance of trend followers, the more it seems to be nothing more than guessing direction--- no different than buy/sell and hold--- how else can these extreme swings be explained?

  8. You have a slanted opinion about everything that you disagree with, figure it out and explain it.
    You're the expert. or you put yourself out there as one so explain them.

    Your continued spewing of, "it's raining outside, it's raining outside but I don't know why" statements are getting old. You put yourself out there as being smarter than all of those "trend following" funds so go either offer them a solution, go fix them or shut the hell up.

  9. End the madness of trend following. It's nothing but a new age term for buy/sell and hope. Oh, markets go up and down but I call it the quantumwilburforcependulum motion. Maybe I'll be nominated for a noble prize for making the simple complicated? od :p

  10. Call it what you want it, all you do is talk. You offer nothing but tainted air. What you need is a breath mint.

    I repeat, either offer them a solution or shut up.

    You're just pissed you will never, and I mean never get nominated for a Peabody or a Pulitzer. Those are reserved for actual journalists. You can always hope for a RAZZIE. That is definitely within your reach.
