Disliked{quote} That's the thing.....where I feel the opportunity lies is in the possible small amount of non-random behaviour that in general is overlooked by a trader seeking the thrills. If there is a small presence of non-random price movement in an otherwise random price series, then like a casino with a small house edge, you can capitalise on this feature by busting through the randomness with a large sample size. For example, if I can find an array of long term return streams with a small edge (say 1-2% each on average over say the last 16 years...Ignored
There is no need to look for them to have a positive edge. (yes positive edge)
Namely because:
1) they are unpredictable (eventhough they do exist)
2) their pattern change over time.
