  1. #1
    I KNOW THIS SOUNDS CRAZY STUPID BUT WHY DO SO MANY OF US FAIL IN TRADING WHEN ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS DO THE OPPOSITE TO WHAT WE ARE DOING.The single thing that is stopping us from becoming profitable is greed and fear,crack this and no matter what platform, we should be all be in profit CONSISTENTLY?

    So whats your thoughts guys,I believe reverse plogy plays a BIG part in trading

    In the event you run forward at the enemy and cuts down with machine gun fire, you simply run backwards at the enemy and you will triumph?

    I don't even understand what I'm doing NOW, why do I believe I could do exactly the reverse?

    I believe that's like saying inverse what you do know and then hope what you don't know is accurate.

    Statistically speaking, this pretty much is useless to consider as a solution (and of course that I don't know where you have this 99% rate in ).

    Just like in a casino, most people fail due to the house edge embedded in the game. Playing the opposite of everything you're playing won't alter a thing as you'll still lose to the house. You need to have a positive edge that both negates and exceeds the house edge in order to win consistently.

    The only instance where such alteration would work is if you're consistently losing more than you're statistically supposed to shed, but the irony is that losing more than you're statistically supposed to is equally as difficult to accomplish as being a consistent winner. Therefore, again, this whole proposition is useless.

    Just like in a casino, most people fail due to the home edge embedded in the game. Playing the opposite of what you're playing won't alter a thing as you'll still lose to the home. You must have a positive edge that negates and surpasses the home edge in order to win consistently.

    The sole instance where such reversal will work is if you're always losing more than you're statistically...
    the answer is...

    we take profits just partly

    but declines are ours in total

    Your broker does exactly the opposite of you every moment.

    Just like in a casino, most people fail due to the home advantage embedded in the game. Playing with the opposite of what you are playing won't change a thing since you'll still drop to the home. You need to get a positive advantage that negates and exceeds the home advantage in order to win consistently.

    The only instance where such alteration would work is if you are consistently losing more than you are statistically...
    Yes you are right Marv concerning the 99 percent I pulled it out of the atmosphere,its probably more like 99.9%
