John Forbes Nash Jr was not, and has never been mistaken for, a genius by any reasonably objective mathematician. If you consider his contribution to mathematics, more of it is hype rather than anything else. He's an intelligent man - not a genius. He made some elementary results in Game Theory...

Exactly!! If they think they know it all then they can jolly well take the scientists place and do all this "research" and discovery themselves. I ain't stopping them. The reason why they are not doing that is because they don't have a clue... How easy and pathetically sad to lay claim to...

No, to a certain extent it actually doesn't. Religion isn't really the problem. The problem is, as it always was, the human condition. My view is that religion is just a manifestation of our insecurity about the world and our place in it. I personally think that a lot of aggression, anger, and...

this site has over 130,000 members, yet there is hardly anyone here who actually know what they are talking about. What was the fate of the charity trading account again?:eek: "If you are struggling to trade your attitude is far from helping." would be like saying to an average looking girl...

Oh, don't worry about me. You obviously don't have a clue. Here's how this thread goes - or rather what you people want it to go: 1) someone mentions an edge 2) posters join in to have their take on it 3) someone clued up tells the truth 4) others join in and obscure the issue, putting in...

And here is a classic example. Everyone thinks they can do it, but most will never admit that they NEVER can. They keep on waffling, talk amongst themselves, turn on those who can, and delude themselves. Why do you think 99% fail at trading. It's not for want of trying. It's just that...

And I might have to pack it in. At least I have the brutal honesty to say so, unlike some fools/deluded idiots here who constantly post and know total f*ck all about trading, not realising who the ones who do are, nor giving them the chance, or getting angry at them, like I did. Socrates knows...

forgot to add . . . Don't know who said this, but its generally true: You can't take advice from people! they are not reliable! [Open your eyes and forget everything you know... start new, search the truth, and do whats right... Courage!] the blades, I'm not here to be a wonderful human...

What a lot of people don't seem to understand is that trading is just like any other profession: some people are just better at it THAN others. Do you see or not see? Like other professions, there are certain qualities required from the individual for success to be possible. Some of these...

they don't want to hear this Firewalker99 and PKFFW don't want to hear this. Most posters on this thread don't want to hear this. They all want to kid themselves that they can make it, simply because they're on a BB board where people "help" one another. You and I know brutally that it has...

Jaydee, For f*ck's sake, new_trader is actually trying to tell you something. Don't be so stubborn. He's trying to help you and you're throwing it in his face with your pointless questions, you're asking the wrong questions and should just be listening . . .

You see, you're not getting it are you? Here we are, two individuals arguing, when the real purpose of the thread, and the thread starter, has contributed nothing, and seeks to confuse people more. In fact, there is really no worth in this thread, apart from the comment that fractals are not...

You don't have a clue - and it's GOOD that you don't have a clue.:lol: New_trader's retort to you was spot on.:lol: "probabilistic"? I hate probability theory (although I know a LOT about it).Tell me, do you have losing runs too?:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

No, it does not, you are just confusing them. If you bother to ask the REAL traders nicely they will tell you that they have never heard of using fractals. I'm not here to sell a book, or a course, or a seminar etc. . . . fractals are about as much use to traders as they are to group theorists.

ljyoung, I don't wish to have a tedious, pointless discussion with you. For those who want to know, even the real traders will tell you, less is more. You don't need to know about fractals. They are irrelevant. So don't worry about them, don't think about them. And it's one less thing to think...
