| Hehe....
| I'm not the maker of Safir-X  / Sirtrade, but I participated to the
| development and the concept.
| The Software was developed by JewelSoft, a neurofuzzy logic specialist.
| I use to do  what I know ( I supose that I'm better with trading systems than
| with AI) in
| this project, so the software is the result of both types of knowledge.

|
| Certainly not.
| Institutional only pay Nobel Prize to develop high end trading application.
| FYI, I have not been yet on their list.

| You should maybe try the Safir evaluation verson with intraday data, then 
tell
| us
| what it really does.
| It's free and only needs a couple of hours to see the results,assuming that
| you are starting from scratch.

Well I happen to have talked to major accounts in the US, in the UK, in Japan, 
in France and in Germany, and by major I mean people who manage well over a 
trillion $ collectively. Their view on AI is that it is not reliable, at least 
doesn't warrant firing managers to replace them with machines. Believe me, they 
wouldn't hesitate. Now the last public example of AI is what the hedge funds 
are doing, and they have not been doing better than traditional funds, if doing 
well at all.

Apart from some well publicized stories like LTCM which was short so much 
Volatility on the European markets that we came hair close to a bank meltdown 
in derivatives and subsequent market crash (they held over 40% of the total 
open short volatility position, with gammas which would have provoked a 
multiple of 1987 volatility), others have not been doing that well either: See 
Tiger.

BTW if you talk with some of the major CPOs in the industry, you will find out 
they are not too keen on AI. If the big and smart money is staying away (KIO, 
US and Japanese billionaires etc), why should I know better?

Draw your own conclusions. There is no shortcut to riches, there are only 
shortcuts to your wallet.

Your conclusions are invalid because you compare a general concept ( AI applied to
trading) with a precise question dealing with availability of  a neurofuzzy software to TS users.
Dowload the trial version, do some experiment with it , then afer speak about it.

For what I know, all these funds are not using neurofuzzy logic and they have not bought
our software, LCMT included. So what do you want to compare ?
