Hi Menelik-
My systems include dynamic portfolio logics as systematic rules. These logics aren’t introduced as a last enhancement to the system, but as the primary foundation of the systems.

Thanks Mark- That seems like a nifty idea.. I've put that idea on my to-do list. Thought problem: why an odd number? I'll take a stab at it... Because you need a tie breaker?? Two indicators short =-2 and two indicators long=+2 has you flat... but throw in a fifth and the scale will tilt most of the...

Is this the way a Fundamentalist would trade?
It seems much more complex then a simple coin toss.

Would you have invested?
Style and appearance seem to have always played a role in our view of things. And also in how we value things.

Hi Vince- At what stage in a persons development would you consider they merit professional help? For example, in Pop (American) Idol, I see young wannabe's strutting their stuff in the hope of getting a chance to be taken on by the professionals, so that their raw talent can be polished smooth, and...

Hi Louis- Say I currently hold a position in a July futures contract and I'm using a 14-day ATR trailing stop. Then when it's time for me to rollover to the September contract, which price series should I use to calculate the trailing stop. You are correct to note that the July and Sept will be diff...

I want to follow up on my previous post. As you can tell, I don't subscribe to the notion of loss of freedom in the typical sense of it. But in the typical sense of it, when looking at a system with the statistical models that are out there, would one want to treat a system that goes long and short ...

I get headaches when math goes beyond the basic +-*/=, so what I’m going to say certainly isn’t grounded in math. Please rip it apart and tell me what you think. I like what bbc first wrote about the larger the sample the more parameters allowed and I like that Jimsta makes a comparison between ...

Hi Forrest- IMHO, the prediction thing is not a viable way of going about things. Now, if you said the poll was done by a guy/gal that has a portfolio selection method which is dynamic and he/she has consistently beaten the index by 600% during every 9months, then that would be something. I think th...

c.f.- I'm sure the answer to this lies in your post from yesterday, but as you have been around some of the great traders our generation has produced... Without attaching names, what are the classifications you would guess those traders had? Is there a difference between Long Term to Short Term trad...

Forum Mgmnt, in your experiences, have you noticed if one classification of personality types excels more than others at trading? I’m sure this is just a gross generalization, but it seems certain traits like N and T would be conducive to successful trading. Hi Jimmy- I look forward to c.f.'s ans...
