I divide traders into three categories. 1- Beginners (schoolchildren and oligarchs can be there). 2- The smart (programmers and technicians). 3- Fools (the rich looking to make a fortune). - page 4

 

The difference is that now the work is for sale. This was not the case on the 4pc.

I have already seen my ideas executed by others in the marketplace.

The generation of ideas now turns only to achieving its own result without publicity

And even the latter is halted, for the journey is over.

 
Oleg Tsarkov:

1. Why are they gone? They just didn't, that's all? That's what I think the reasons are.

2. The codobase is bloated with clones of shabby ideas. I cannot build a working TS on these indicators, or I have not looked too hard.

I will always try to implement my probability of a market breakthrough.

4. If you are an MQL forum you cannot do it, everything is erased and smart guys are banned. Here is the result.

1. Someone understood something and left. Someone was drowned.

2. Yes. No thoughts of their own, only twists and turns. Fischer alone, he's already got like 20 names.

3. There's a big confusion between out-of-the-box creative thinking and the usual nonsense.

4. Why is it impossible? On the 4th, it was at one time.

bad.... it is possible to build a profitable TS on a single SMA (although I prefer still the EMA... idyl average)
moreover, I have come to the conclusion that other complicated tools work worse, like FRAMA, TEMA, TMA etc.

more complicated!=better....
and more often vice versa, because this makes the system extremely fragile, as well as in the process of building TS with each new parameter and option the probability of confusion and making a logical error increases exponentially...
I don't even use built-in GAs and always pick up parameters of indices only by eye, all the rest is blind fitting to the market...

traders also like to say - it's not the indicator, but how you're preparing it...


the more people focus on complicated tools, the farther from the truth...

all the pros say it in unison!!! But a beginner stupidly thinks he's the smartest, finds a smart super-profitable indicator or even funnier, an Expert Advisor, and becomes a lemon...

 
The market spoiled everything - everyone saw how much money they can make from good finds... but DCs aren't slacking either - they also filter branches to combat misses or holes...

If you want to draw an optimistic trader, you've got to follow the market, you've got to follow the market, you've got to follow the rules, and you've got to follow the market.

As for the other indicators, they don't change the indicator, they just adjust it blindly.

I agree 1100% everything brilliant is simple... just go in and hedge on all pairs and exit at maximum, you can even do it without indicators... everything will be over 50%

I did a similar experiment, the best result was obtained, strange as it may seem, on two SMAs with a small difference in period. All modifications really make the picture worse. But the result still does not satisfy the profit, I need an add-on that manages the period and strategy type (trend, channel, overbought,...) depending on the market character.
 
i have such a thing - i keep a diary)) and write what i call "trading notes"... it's just that sometimes thoughts get so overwhelming that they really weigh on your brain, so i started to write everything down there...
and here's one of my points in the notebook:

"You should always start with the simplest one. The system and the analysis tools must not be unnecessarily complicated.
If there is no clear justification for using a more complex tool, a simpler one should be preferred."

The more people lean towards complicated tools, the farther away it is from the truth. At least you may see how not to do it and find out why.
