I suppose it makes for a nice compliment, if someone yells out "but that's impossible" you know you've done well and can afford a cheeky little smirk :)

#automation #itcanbedone #metronome

Distinctly flattens after Melbourne cup :shock: (Whole Flemtington carnival was weird for me in any case).

PS Posted for inspriational purposes only to show that automated algo trading can be sucessfully implemented.
Great stuff as always Gazuty

6 months of automation is likely over 1000s of markets so it's going to be zoomed out enough to look like a straight line. A shorter timeframe would show more ups and downs yet still a positive uptrend.

Unless he just made up the results/drew it on MS paint and is planning to release a "trade your way to the poolside in 10 easy steps" ebook ;)

Why's it so hard for some people to understand that a full-time job might actually pay a wage‽ And when they do start to believe it, they wonder why they can't do the same with just a year or two doing it part-time.

All just points towards the usual attitude that this isn't a real job because whenever people post example profits on here the overly effusive response just come across as being patronising.

Gazuty already has a well paid full-time job?

Doing it part-time has a really nice balance to it, you still keep the "full-time" trading profit, but without the stigma around it. Ideal scenario probably.

Might be high time to bury that hatchet Emmson, no good comes of it, let the man be :)

I'm sure many could bump this thread over the past few years, plenty of good active traders around like Dallas, megarain etc, but not posting is worthy of respect as well, if not more so.

I thought you were a libertarian Kai where all views are legitimate all of the time.

Hi tbe. Understand you are sceptical at my results - that is ok. Please don't be scepitcal about my real world existence, although I guess that is harder to prove although we can probably come up with a thought experiment to do so.

Recommend you read viewtopic.php?p=265873#p265873 I put this together for people like you - there is a section at the end "This is just gambling (I don't believe any of you are sucessful)" But don't dwell on that section read the rest.

Another aspect for you to think about - I've been around for a while and made a few contributions. Those contributions, for better or for worse, establish my online reputation. I didn't have to post a PnL for further kudos (but I do appreciate the positive feedback from fellow forum members and I thank them). I posted it to inspire because people often ask is automation possible and can it be long term sucessful. This is my answer to that question. If you choose not to be believe the answer that is perfectly fine by me.

It's very possible, but it does depend how 'zoomed' the line is. I have losing days fairly often. This is mine (16 months, since I started how I trade now). I'm completely manual.

The dips are mostly psychological problems (bloody round numbers :roll: ), which don't trouble a bot.

Descending into anothers rabbit hole, but within those results these are my worst types of races. #notalwayswinning
