Universal Trend Trading

  1. "Fake equity" - it's not fake, as much as it is a backtest of only S&P. Already explained that.

  2. There is one post when I say I have 40% DD. Care to look what was my account value at the time?

    2011 was bad for trend following, won't post a link here, but there is a blog that summarizes well known trend followers. Have a look. In 2011 I lost about 25%.

    Yes, my system can have 70% drawdown. Are you claiming that I'm psychologically unstable because I can take more heat? If so - fine, if not - please explain.

  3. Yes, 2004 - first account, lost money with neuimex, learning for about 4 years.
    September 2008 - opened account with decent starting balance, money that would hurt if I lost. Verifiable track record from September 2008. Do you see how my learning period is not relevant to the thread in the first link?
    Teaching - yes, I teach people how to trade. At every class I show them my account, so they know I'm profitable. Unfortunately, people from ET are not my prospective customers - my course is in Polish.
    I see you went to great lengths to try to discredit me. Sorry it didn't work. Now, are you going to open your journal or not?

  4. The curve does not match the magnitude of the loss.

    Your journal starts at $500,000 and goes to $200,000. This is not reflected in the equity curve you posted.

  6. The post from this one below where you misrepresent your actual results:

    The SP chart from that post does not show a 60% drawdown, and you are misrepresenting your performance.

    It doesn't get much more clueless than this, putanski. Thinking of asking EMG to add your seminar to list of scams.

  7. Already said, that I trade more symbols (did you not notice?). The chart of S&P is backtest of S&P ONLY!!!
    Got it now?

  8. Whatever. Your -60% was your max drawdown approximately.

    Nobody should pay you a dollar for your seminars. You're a terrible trader.

  10. So euros? It's still overvalued and if you were truthful about your results they'd know beforehand it isn't worth it to pay anything.
