Isn't this true?

The question that begs answering then is... since markets came into existence, how come no one has figured them out yet? Do you feel as if the markets can be beat ?


Thanks

What do you think - you have a web site promising such

further to Neil's comment..........

If you feel like that why would you be trying to sell a system?

Re: If anyone could figure out the markets...
Sorry for the late reply. I was moving house yesturday. Socrates, It depends on your trading style, I have a single edge and watch the market for my setup, I don't trade unless I see it. Of course I could have several setups and then I would have several edges.

Back to the question, I think it was Jesse Livermore who said:

"Always remember; you can win a horse race, but you can’t beat the races. You can win on a stock, but you cannot beat Wall Street all the time. Nobody can.”

and

"I don't have to beat Wall Street. I have to beat myself, my emotions."

Re: If anyone could figure out the markets...
I don't understand why someone who points at a website that makes the claim:

"Know The Markets High And Low Before It Gets There, Get Your Complete Market Forecast The Night Before It Even Happens. "

would ask a question on the topic of:

"If anyone could figure out the markets... "

Isn't this just another SPAMMER's thread?

Seems like only three of us ( see the threads above) have twigged this. Seems he is in no hurry to answer us. Maybe he has fled the scene of the crime

And look how easy it is to draw in the punters.
