RE: Discounting Systems



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

Market Profile, like everything else, turns out to go nowhere. I'm convinced
that nothing works on the emini, except MAYBE my Reliability system, which
is a very simple volatility breakout system like Clayburg's Cyclone. I'm
trading it with my money, and offering it for sale to anyone who HAS TO HAVE
A FREAKING SYSTEM. However, I will not be surprised if it blows out. I'm
just trading it mostly for fun and entertainment, which is all I think
trading is good for.

Anyway, I've had my fun with you guys. Thanks again for all of the great
feedback. I'll go away now and let you guys beat up on someone else.
