I saw this question presented the other day and I was to busy to answer it.
I have a bit of time now so I'll attempt to answer it. In my case I fell
victim to one man's hype and his desire to make money off others using a
program he wrote. Being not knowledgeable about computerized trading I
thought he was honest but instead found him not to be just greedy or
lacking the nerve to trade himself. I now know all he had was a simple
breakout program for the S&P that could have easily been made into a
system. He never did systemized it publicly because he didn't want the
results shown. A sly one indeed but in the process I'm sure he fooled
himself as well but was the reason I bought TS. I'm never one to let
another bring me down so I learned. Now I know more than him about
computerized trading using either programs or systems. Today I use TS to
watch indicators and trade patterns to trade with. Indicators lag but give
me an idea of where the market is and trade patterns give me the
forecasting ability to anticipate where the market will be in the future.
But having said that I recently made more money on Internet stocks than I
have in the past three years in Commodities. I made this money not even
using trade station only watch price or reading the tape. So now I'm on
trade labs list as well. Why because I'm always trying to learn and find a
more efficient way to trade. What ever is inside my head that I use to
trade with will probably never be known to me. Here it is the silly
statement ,I just know and I don't know why I know that but I know when a
trade is going to be good I can feel it. If I'm wrong I just sell it at a
loss, go figure. No smoke no mirrors just the human brain at work and not
fully understood by it's owner.
