Why has the turtle trend-following system stop working?

    Of course I have an idea about the outcome, my account shows that I am right or wrong. Every 24 hours I receive the results of my influence on the outcome from my broker. That's (sometimes hard) reality.

    Past proofed already that you have no clue about how to influence the outcome by timing. But it is not because you cannot, the world cannot. To make that link you should be God.

    No other 3rd party experiences relevant to you?

    But for other people reading, this has nothing to do with trend following.

  4. Ok.-- that makes sense in and of itself. But i still don't understand your point nor does our finance PhD--- your right, i am not the smartest guy-- far from it-- but i have access to and work with some very bright and credentialed folks--- what i am best at is articulating complex ideas so they can be understood-- and coming up with the ideas, not doing the actual quant work to make the ideas actionable and test.

    With that said, thanks for the explanation but no one here gets your point. But thats ok, as long as you get it-- that's how markets work.

    Peace, surf

  5. Could you please provide an example of articulating a complex idea so that it can be understood?

  7. Sure, i can derive it. Can you? I only work when i am getting paid, however. So, sorry, no.

  8. That's a weird question. I am not falling for it-- and if this isn't some kind of linquistic trap--the answer is no-- i get paid to do such things.

  9. Weird? You claimed to be doing something best. Unlike the other request, I'm not requesting you do any work to respond to my request.

    You clearly have done this thing before, because you know for yourself that you do it best. Just a link or a copy and paste would do. An example of past work?

    And I must say I'm flattered about the linguistic bit.

  10. Sorry for initially taking your question the wrong way.

    Its generally done in meetings with investors or as a ghost writer for financial CEO's and fund managers --so sorry, i can't post anything here.
