Even this response includes my original email, your 
condemnation of it, my reply to you and your latest saying you did not attack 
me. If you believe what you are saying, you are now stating you do not know how 
to use email properly. If you make comments on anyone's post, you are directing 
those comments to that person. If that is not your intention, use the 
"New Mail" button and not the "Reply all".  

<<Your turning into another ric whatever his 
name is.>>  I suppose you directed this to the entire group? If you 
still believe what you're claiming, I reccomend you get some 
help.

  Tim,
   
  I did not attack you in any way, so why are you 
  attacking me and calling me childish names.
  Look at my previous email, do you see your name 
  in it.  If you notice it says From: <A 
  href="mailto:kenoor@xxxxxxxxxxxxx"; title=kenoor@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>Tom Bowen 
  To: <A href="mailto:realtraders@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"; 
  title=realtraders@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>realtraders@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.  Please 
  don't be so quick to accuse, it was a reply to the realtraders group as a 
  whole.
  I did not elect myself as anything.
  Discipline, maturity, common sense, analytical 
  skills and perseverance are the marks of a good trader.
  When this forum started many years ago it 
  was a place for traders to exchange information has it changed it's 
  intended purpose?
   
  Tom

    You sound like a school marm, or at least an illiterate 
    whiner. Apply your own comments to your OWN post. I posted in earnest. There 
    is no call for your attack on me. Now that you've elected yourself as 
    moderator God, schedule your self-righteous self for a penetrating 
    brain enema.  Hooray for ric, whoever he is. If you don't like him, he 
    must be allright.

        I'm reading this thread and it seems to me that some 
        clarity is in order,IMHO.What do we know is predictable? 
        Certainly the tides, but  what perfectionlevel is 
        needed?Humans trading -vs- computers (programmed by humans) 
        trading - what are themain issues?Can we program our thinking? 
        Left brain logic?, yes, of course.Blackjack is a good example of 
        left brain usage. Try to be right brained andyou are a loser.No 
        human can outperform a computer at this. The latest Chess computer 
        canbeat any human. Chess is about strategy and tactics, in human 
        theory, but,to a computer that has every game ever played (and is 
        well programmed), it'sreally about the superior capacities, 
        data  and speed of the computer.Trading? What does trading 
        consist of? Are the decisions made left-brained,right-brained or 
        just purely emotional?   I don't imagine anyone here 
        wouldchallenge the idea of having a trading plan, which is all 
        left-brain stuff.If one programs all the components of a 
        professionally done written tradingplan, it's likely 
        unbeatable.Now back to the original issue, predictability.  
        If one tries to forecastthe future, it calls for inductive reason, 
        based on something like cycles.It's projected outward in time. This 
        I'd call a strategy.I admit ignorance with neural nets. It seems 
        like step-wise regressiontesting or something like that. But 
        deductive reasoning, like after a chessmove, would be used (I guess) 
        by the neural net, kinda like the weather. Iwouldn't call it a  
        forecast, maybe a pattern recognition probability, or avalidation or 
        invalidation of the original forecast (strategy).OK. A lot of 
        words to say "what is the probability that this prediction 
        isaccurate?".  If a program can make a prediction and record it 
        on thedatabase, it's easy enough to go back and compare the actual 
        result to it.Computer test results, (Odds, Probabilities) would be 
        the "edge" overhumans.Personally, I don't think humans are 
        made for trading, any more thanBlackjack, i.e, if the goal is to 
        make money.IMHO, the components of human behavior are absolutely 
        predictable, and,programmable, but not by Friday.I don't know 
        where we are on "Visual" technology, but, it seems inevitablethat 
        the computer will surpass us. But, for now, experience can be "seen" 
        bythe pros and I guess it'll still be king, for a little while 
        anyway.Sorry if I overdid this,Tim----- Original
