es/pip:

Your swearing is making you look deranged. You might want to get yourself checked mentally too.

Stop getting worked up on an Internet forum!!

Your talking about developing 'emotionless' trading and you've just demonstrated how you have no control over your own emotions.

A good way to think of how 'frequency distribution' can quantify behaviour is think about ourselves. Scenario A) You wake up every morning at 7:30 am to go to work. You get to work at 8:30 am - right on time. Scenario B) You wake up at 7:30 and you get to work at 8:40 pm - you're late. 1) Out of 200...

Speed26, Matlab is one of the easiest programming languages to program in. It is probably easier than MQL and I would go as far to say a terrific starter language because of the ability to quickly get an output. It is absolutely worth your time to learn this application, it has plenty of universal a...

Dillinger, That is not what I am suggesting. However, hedging CAN be a useful strategy contrary to the 'experts' that claim "hedging is useless." Hedging is often used incorrectly and that is why people claim it doesn't work. Taking out a LONG and SHORT at the same time is a incorrect way ...

Moreover, for those following. It would be useful to obtain a copy of Matlab in whatever way you can. I use Matlab R2012b. If you don't have it, don't worry, I won't jump into it just yet. It isn't necessary to have it, but when I get into some topics, the hands-on approach may be simpler than 'imag...

I will reply back to some of these posts with some detail later. I am currently in Switzerland right now. Bredin: I've oversimplified the idea so that core ideas are understood. Particularly the concept and importance of variable trade sizes (since many people stick to one particular size/percentage...

Dillinger, Yes. How should we reduce trade sizes as we win? How do we increase trade sizes as we lose? How big should these increments be? I definitely do NOT agree that we should be DOUBLING up as we lose or "halving" down if we win. Doing so is incorrect because that would assume the pro...

Speed26. Technically, if your equity is below your balance at the same time, that would imply you have a floating loss. If you close the floating loss, the Equity = Balance (but reduced). Likewise, if your Equity was above the Balance, you would have a floating profit and if you close the floating p...

Dillinger, A-. You're correct on basically everything. It is safer to pick TAILS simply because of the mean-reverting nature of the large sample. Even if the coin has no memory technically, if both heads and tails have even chance, and more heads came out so far, why not try to utilize the nature of...
