Working on it,
so far not able to break that 50-55% barrier on back-tests
but its work in progress
This weekend I was going to post on this thread,
but got caught up with other things
This thread has been a very interesting learning experience for me,
this 20% thingy was like no way, here comes another one
The only reason for engaging with the OP was, that he is been around for a while
and comes across as a genuine person
As I started working / testing the method,
I realized with 8/10 years of actively trading,
there are so many biases that I have collected
all along there has been this nagging resistance about the 20% thingy
its like universalizing our own limitations and projecting it over markets / other traders
If I can't see it obviously no one else can either,
also it keeps getting reinforcement with so many fake gurus
there are 100's of examples of "told you so"
So whoever talks about 100/200 % is either naive or a fraud
But with all the efforts put in,
if we can stretch our own trading result,
even by 1/2% its worth it
Its a paradox,
don't want to be taken in by all the 1000% twitter nonsense being dished out
but at the same time, also not kill the dream by starting to believe in our self imposed limitations
Happy Trading
