Let me try a Narrative process.From my residence to Airport it takes 1.30 Hrs by car on an avg speed of 60 km/Hr.Whatever Set -Up i might have & think that to be a Mechanical thing (to alley the Emotion part out of it) CAN BEST be a compared with a Bicycle traversing to the Airport paddled by a Highly Diabetic non athelete aged person.
Day before yesterday IMF sold 400 tonnes of Gold from their Holdings.This Headsup is in any way going to effect my everyday Nifty Fut trading,probably not but in terms of 'Asset Allocation' of Big Funds this INSTANTLY needs REBALANCING.(Scaling out from 'Precious Metal' & allocating to other asset class.)
My Rs 100.00 of Jan 2008 ,if the inflation is still contained within 8% per annum,needs to fetch me just 8% Only TO REMAIN STATIC Without GROWTH.
Now as the Mkt is at 4700 level Funds will be more invested in Equity (which may be miniscule say 15% )than when in 6000,where they where scaling out from Equity(which at that time may have risen to 45 % )& Reallocate to even 'Hussain's Paintings' .
These are only to put forward an Idea what this System beast is.
Coming back to Abhijeet's point No. 2 (i am well aware that Point No 1 will require lots of attention for thrashing it out),i have only taken TF & Data.Which may seem very innocuous that we will take 5 mins & 60mins & for Data only Close.
The entire Data-Minning ; Time Frame Compression/Expansion should itself require seperate threads for Layman like me.
Layers are above my Heads layers of Cognizence, at this Stage.
Ajay's approach is not even clear to me ,becoz I THINK ONLY A BUY & SELL as that is only visible through my Blinkers.
To Successfully Manage a SINGLE Trade few Auxillary Trades are also nessecary.A dumb fool like me is unable to Fathom the colinearity how can i digest the Huge variables involved.
Lot of us including me ONLY HAVE A SET UP thats all,we cant grasp what actually a even rudimentary basic System is,as we do not know the beast nor have seen one .But in Net have seen 'A Winning System with $6000" & know it requires Back Testing ,so to me a Set Up with back test is a System,not only i am in Fool's paradise but trying to judje the Elephant by it's Tail in a Black Out ambience.
