What are the drawbacks?

  1. What are the drawbacks of revealing something about all markets that will give anyone a tremendous edge? Which can also be fully automated.
     
  2. "tremendous edge" is more of a skill, in my opinion...rather then a fully automated thing o_O :confused:

    Everything about the market falls on Risk vs Reward...but you can...more or less...skew those results...bend that law, if you're good.
    -- rather then someone who is somewhat purely gambling or just flipping a coin.

  7. Depends on what you mean by "tremendous edge", that is essentially meaningless. Anyway, it depends on several variables. For example, the capital of whoever gets that information. If it's small, the market impact of that participant will be insignificant to small for long periods of time.

    From what you have shown, there doesn't seem to be a "tremendous edge". Or am I interpreting these charts wrong?
     
  8. its just part of the curve, the edge is modification of that curve to minimize drawdowns.
