  4. ok..some factual details

    some people here have got some information from TO..very simple and straight forward information

    the most recent person..has let me know that he is now seeing things are they are..and has already tried it out..with instant success

    the others have yet to SEE the value in this information..and make use of it to make some money

    u see..the reason why some people do not SEE it immediately..is nothing to do with TO..as point above proves..so..it can only be down to one thing..and that is.....................

    btw..glad u are making good use of it..but be careful..and never take anything for granted in the market..for..as just mentioned to A28..it is no good making money unless u are able to hold on to it..no good at all!!!!

    many will wonder why this person got the information so quickly and freely from TO..and the reason is very simple..

    HE ASKED IN THE RIGHT WAY:)

  7. quite frankly..in relation to trading..what u do..ar any other person does..is of no real consequence to TO..or anyone else for that matter

    but know u this..what u do is done so because of the way u think..and thus act..so..it makes perfect sense that u understand..and rectify and errors - problems - that u have

    say thx to Mrs Boyd:D

    OK, an adaptive feedback loop of self improvement, but why the repeated mention of Mrs Boyd or John in this thread?

    I'd come to the conclusion that there were no secrets, or rainbows to chase, just simple gambling principles that I understand already, and also personal psychology to master (currently on cycle No. 3), but now you mention secrets. :cool:

    A simple practical principle that has worked well for me is that faith without evidence is delusional BS.

  9. John Boyd invented the OODA loop. He was supposedly very skilled at "thinking". Some people compare his teachings to Sun Tzu's Art of War.

    What is Cycle No 3?

  10. Boyd did not solve the problem of making money by recommending taking a trade and then seeing how it turned out.

    What did he miss?

    As a fight pilot trainer he missed how fighting in the air works.

    You can't figure this out just like he didn't.

    Who cares that the CW of the financial industry just works at a given level of betting performance? I certainly do not.

    My job is to frontrun big money.

    Fighter pilots DO NOT front run their opponents. See if you can get the broken system of OODA and its betting (which you may not understand since you are NOT the house) staight in your mind. It does not work.

    Faith is not required at all.

    The evidence is ALL there and irrefutable. BUT it does NOT come from induction.

    Try for a moment to prove to yourself that induction does not work. Pretent you are a scientist and you are actually trained in Science.

    In making money, Science rules and betting is just the fodder for the Science of making money. PhD physists who work in finance have their heads up their asses.

    The obvious is obvious to the Scientific mind.

    Nothing is obvious to the betting mind.

    Here is one sentence for you to deductively figure out.

    Three up/down pairs do NOT work (Boyd and his OODA); only two left/right/left triads will work (the PEP, MADA).

    Play geometry and do a proof (deductive) on one page of paper.
