Nice post... thanks :-]
You hit the nail on the head more than once ... no need for me to comment
and raise blood pressures :-]]]
Perhaps, like me, some of us like the game more than the rewards.
keep your posts coming Pal, interesting discussion so far!
best regards,
herman.

Subject: [amibroker] Re: Awesome trading system
Herman,
Most systems will not work all the time ...... but most system works
if there is good money management .... it is like doing business,
expenses and mistakes is part of it, but what counts is being net
profitable having more wins than losers .......
Most traders get caught up in the search for a better system. In so
doing they often never spend enough time with any one to learn it
properly.
I cringe every time an Amibroker user comes out with another batch of
indicators/patterns/systems, because I know they're stoking this
madness.
`Oh boy, more things to try!' :-[
When you've tried a system for all it's worth, give it another
couple months. Diligently. Keep records of every trade. Take notes.
Check every action you take in the calm light of retrospection, every
day after the market closes.
There are a million different reasons why a person's mind will hijack
his efforts to be a profitable trader. Put yours under round-the-
clock surveillance and see if there's a problem that's been
overlooked.
Use what everyone else uses and your success will be measured against
the performance of the majority. The bar is set too low.
I prefer discretionary trading. Being a programmer I enjoy working
with and testing mechanical systems.
I think the gulf between the two is seldom as wide as it seems. A
Mechanical system really forms the foundation for the discretionary
system. The mechanical system is the framework [foundation] of the
Architecture and the Discretionary system is the Architecture. If
the foundation is not stable, so would be the Architecture.
Discretionary trading is mechanical trading on steroids.
