I must say I'm beginning to have doubts about how possible it is to trade effectively. Everything I look at tends not to work very well & I can see no system that will work predictably.
Given the charts we always all look at I decided to create a chart in excel whereby the random numbers were added continuously just like the market. The results were waves just like we see all the time.
While I don't think the long term nature of the market is random, I'm beginning to wonder if the shorter term movement is. If so everything we discuss on here may all just be fooling ourselves/
So the question is - given that a coin toss is unpredictable - would you trade it. It would produce a chart just like any market - I don't see why we can't develop a model to trade this randomness either. I must say it really is amazing how the support and resistance levels are created when you see a chart created from random numbers - it's just mind boggling
