Title: [OT] Common sense in TA

The "Why are there so few" thread prompts me to share some personal observations:


  • Selling a system usually means you are trying to sell something that doesn't work anyway
  • No one can stop private traders to use copyrighted material in their systems
  • You only publish or share a system if you want short-term fame instead of gain
  • In practice subscription Signals that work for one trader may not work for another
  • Formal publications are mostly for ego, they rarely pay for your time
  • A trader may accidentally post a HG or proprietary idea on the list and nobody catches on
  • The best trading ideas are the simplest trading ideas.
  • The best trading ideas are often obvious but nobody sees them
  • Most developers spend their time adding MM, stops, Optimizing, etc., instead of improving the basic trading principle
  • If you help others with code, sooner or later, someone will help you just when you need it most
  • Systems do not work forever. Most of the time they are about to fail when you (and many others) discover them.
  • TA Tools lag on needs: most new features are added to TA products after they have gone obsolete
  • Basic research should be the foundation of all good system design
  • Most trading principles can be coded on one page, to make them tradable may take a hundred or more
  • What is a great trading idea to one may be a joke to another
  • The best ideas on this list are found by reading between the lines


...and so on...


Best regards,

herman
