Thread: The Moment Of Victory

  1. #1
    Dear All,

    I think this will be the most exciting moment in your trading life once you realize you've got the advantage with full confidence.

    I wonder if anyone is kind enough to leave a description of your feeling at the moment.

    I think this is something great to thousands of individuals trying to find them to picture their own achievement.

    Any Sort volunteer(s)?

    cheers,

    This sharing is excellent. My route might not be exactly the same as you, but I do share your expertise in some manner.

    My expertise is that I heard (actually still learning) trading methods on FF, and that I knew the method works (with a border ) on its own, as others use it successfully (using their discretion), but when I used it and customized it to suit my style. I felt pressure and the edge wasn't apparent to me. Why it did not work in the moment, I didn't know. (Now I can see that I wasn't edued myself enough and chances played a role to blur the edge). I think emotional was a issue for me to manage.

    I seriously agree that plogical detachment is very important, without a level of detachment, I cannot even engage my thoughts effectively to practise and understand, and the ups and downs can easily prevent me out from the journey.

    But if you are like me who had many imitation eureka moments early on just to discover that these moments were false and did not turn you into profitability, you will either end with trading or get emotionally detached to new discoveries and only see if your new discovery ends up.
    In the end, after I knew exactly that I had an edge, I did not feel that excited. I just apply my edge each and every...

    I think most folks here are lying around their profitability. Just imagine you are still not successful and are years at it. It requires a character to acknowledge that you still staying with trading and are still losing. I think most simply go the easy road and say yes I am successful, cause they know that nobody will be able to verify their promises.

    Just my opinion.

    Only my view.
    Don't you believe BillyRayValentine are powerful trader (you've vouched for him, perhaps he's lied for many years and spent hours from time to time to submitted and whined?) . Keep daily, lying for face is not for many people, I presume, although lying is not surprising. (Keeping self-deceiving for many years is an art of persistence ).

    Furthermore, if one is not too idle, he can check the validity of somebody's method with forward data. An individual can distinguish fact against ficition.

Lying is not surprising, but maintain daily, lying only for confront is not for many people, I think. (Maintaining self-deceiving for years is an art of persistence ).

    Furthermore, if a person is not very idle, he can assess the validity of someone's method with forward data. One can distinguish reality against ficition.
    Well, like I said, it is difficult to verify people's claims, so I don't wanna remark on one's personal performance.

    However, I agree with your point about not being idle. I generally try to code every new thought I read and then backtest it on many years of data. Regrettably ideas don't endure that backtest. That's why I believe many are lying about their profitability or just had a streak.

    And before you edited your post you thought I suggested that you weren't profitable, but actually if you look at my post I was referring to your statement that others were claiming to successfully utilizing a method. (I indied that in bold on my post, so I thought it was clear that I referred to thenigeriaforextradingpeople ).

    Thank you for reply. I think I eventually got everything you tried to say after reading .

    Of course not everyone honest in the world, but people can generally distinguish between who's who, even if they spend enough work.

    For someone who would just like to save face to lie, then he wouldn't post their trading achievement frequently on a forum. If he had been asked questions, then he wouldn't answer things with logic and reasoning.

    For your backtesting, if you backtested like an EA, you'd generally be unable to loe edge. A lot of discretions generally involved.

    Do not know how much you might agree with my own words.

    Cheers,

    However, I agree with your point about not being idle. I generally try to code every new idea I read and then backtest it on many years of information. Most ideas do not survive that backtest. That's the reason why I think most are lying about their profitability or just had a series.

    nicely, everybody has a goal. Some not successful individuals have the desire to at least be applauded by from individuals in a forum to find some sort of success which they overlook in real trading.

    It depends upon which approaches people choose, but in general almost everything could be programmed, except possibly trendlines (at least I haven't found the logic nonetheless, with which it could be programmed).
    Discretion are just rules that have not been devised yet. Thus, in which points they are discretionary one normally if somebody can tell me could program that into rules.
    I think it's a lot more challenging to find advantages when not using a program. You will see a border in different procedures, make your sample size will be rather small. Any method may have a few hundred trades before being whiped out. There are quite a couple of trading methods that seem like they've got an advantage and will have a few lucky streaks. However there are only.
    Now it is my opinion that for loing those that really supply an advantage, you need more trades than any ordinary human being can perform manually to reach statistical significance. That's the reason I use a schedule to be able to state with a certain likelihood that a system has an advantage.

    Just my opinion.

    Thanks,

    About people, I personally don't know the kind of people you described. There are, but might not be many.

    Concerning programming, based on the approach you choose, should you choose a qualitative approach, yes I believe programming is critical. If you are a chartist, there is a saying A picture worth a million words. To program a technique, you want to interpret a chart visual position into words. Until you can fully program the method next, you need to measure the parameters. You can't actually backtest a trading method if the logic of this programming isn't complied enough to describe a situation.

    Compared a qualitative approach into a chartist egy, I personally believe that the later create more high-probability setups. In general, I don't believe high-probability installation is given set by an EA, exception is extremely rare. You may be given an advantage by an EA but might not be a strong one.
