Let's Try an Experiment

Recommended Posts

Have you read FOOLED BY RANDOMNESS, THE BLACK SWAN, or THE SIGNAL AND THE NOISE?

 

Your experiment will not prove a thing, IMHO.

 

How about flipping the coin ONCE for the entire experiment, heads go long, tails go short. Use the WEEKLY ATR of the EUR/USD for a stop loss and trade $.10 per pip.

 

Taking this far too seriously...

 

Flip the coin... dumb fcking stupid as this is... see how it turns out (won't prove a thing). Ya'll are way too serious.

Quoting myself... that sucks. Take the trade against the coin flip... that would be interesting. Best of good fortunes.

This is what we have so far:

 

Me Mon 7/22 (today) Heads/Buy

1 position = $1 a pip.

TP = 20

SL = 20

Position opened 09:30 EST

 

 

Optiontimer Tues 7/23 Tails/Sell

 

Glassonoin Wed 7/24 Heads/Buy

 

Jpennybags Thurs 7/25 Tails/Sell

 

Bluehorse Fri 7/26 Heads/Buy

 

Siuya Fri 8/2 Tails/Sell

 

 

If some of the spots are not filled, that's ok too. It's all random.

Anyone else wants to jump into an empty spot, jump away.

Take Profit @13204 10:00 EST.

 

I had the chart set to 1 minute, I did not see the trade close so I don't know if it closed on the 10: candle, or if it just rounded the time to the next 15 min of half hour.

 

Anyway, + 20 so far.

Tomorrow we will be doing Jpennybags Tails/short.

 

This is wild, 3 in a row so far. If we win tomorrow it will blow my mind.

My trading day is usually done by 09:30 so I have never really watched PA on a small TF at the NY open.

Some very interesting stuff going on. After this "experiment" we should talk about it.

Random can be humbling... we shall see how this turns out.

 

I once did an experiment were I traded from the left side of the screen... in a trending market everyone looks like a genius.

 

Sometimes we are our worst enemies... get the trade on, and manage the trade has become my philosophy.

:rofl:

 

Your comment reminded me of an interview that i saw on TV with a woman in the UK talking about the birth of the royal baby.

 

She expressed the opinion that she was "Amazed" that the child was a boy.

    • “If the West finds itself falling behind in AI, it won’t be due to a lack of technological prowess or resources. It won’t be because we weren’t smart enough or didn’t move fast enough. It will be because of something many of our Eastern counterparts don’t share with us: fear of AI.   The root of the West's fear of AI can no doubt be traced back to decades of Hollywood movies and books that have consistently depicted AI as a threat to humanity. From the iconic "Terminator" franchise to the more recent "Ex Machina," we have been conditioned to view AI as an adversary, a force that will ultimately turn against us.   In contrast, Eastern cultures have a WAY different attitude towards AI. As UN AI Advisor Neil Sahota points out, "In Eastern culture, movies, and books, they've always seen AI and robots as helpers and assistants, as a tool to be used to further the benefit of humans."   This positive outlook on AI has allowed countries like Japan, South Korea, and China to forge ahead with AI development, including in areas like healthcare, where AI is being used to improve the quality of services.   The West's fear of AI is not only shaping public opinion but also influencing policy decisions and regulatory frameworks. The European Union, for example, recently introduced AI legislation prioritizing heavy-handed protection over supporting innovation.   While such measures might be well-intentioned, they risk stifling AI development and innovation, making it harder for Western companies and researchers to compete.   Among the nations leading common-sense AI regulation, one stands out for now: Singapore.” – Chris C Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
