DislikedActually it is the exact opposite. There is no way on earth that a losing system is going to make money "if you give it enough friggin years and the right ruleset".
It is like saying that with enough time each casino player is going to bankrupt the casino. Sure you can make money in a short period of time, but as time goes by the Law of large numbers takes over and if your trading system has no statistical edge to begin with you will ALWAYS end up in the poor house, even if you are Bill Gates, you can bet the farm on that.Ignored
does "having the right ruleset and enough time" that creates a losing situation = what i was saying? no!
does 5 heads in a row mean i have an edge with a coin toss? does 600 heads in 1000 coin tosses mean i have an edge?
prices wander around enough that it's possible to devise a range of curve-fitted bullshit rules to trade by. period.
does a blackjack player who tends to win between 5 and 8 pm have an edge by trading between 5 and 8 pm? do they have an edge if they seem to win more when they wear red underwear? do they have an edge by only trading when they hear the neighbour sing in the morning if historical research shows a tendency to win on these days?
random pattern match != edge.
