For those keeping track: Both predictions came to fruition brilliantly...
As usual, the original thread has been distracted by the comparison of traditional TA and VTE forecasts.
VTE trading results for the first week :
18.02.08 to 22.02.08
Opening Balance : 500.00
Closed Profit/Loss : +77.17
Floating Profit/Loss : 0.00
End Balance : 577.17
In my opinion, the TA forecasts looked very pale compared to the VTE forecasts. In fact, these forecasts often looked
They looked childishly naive, something like "two bounces, three hops..." and you couldn't really trade on them.
And on the contrary, VTE forecasts gave a trader the opportunity to actually open positions in a profitable direction.
As for my own real account, of course, there is no dispute - the results are very modest, because I mainly wanted to demonstrate
a variant of real trading with minimal drawdown. I think I managed to achieve that. In fact, if one does the analysis he/she will see that the maximal
30$ drawdown (with a deposit of 500$) was made only on the first day of trading, on Monday. The other days of the week, the net worth never dropped
on the other days of the week the equtiity has never fallen below the initial deposit amount.
Results of VTE trades of the second week :
25.02.08 to 29.02.08
Opening balance : 577.17
Closed profit/loss : -180.76
Floating profit/loss : 0.00
Closing balance : 396.41
If anyone has been following closely the forecasts and their implementation (and there are hardly 2-3 of them), I think he was struck by the mystical irresistibility
of the mystical insurmountability of their realisation. The most seemingly unrealistic prediction on the Japanese, which has been called mystical by supporters of traditional TA, turned out to be so,
In the sense that it was realized with mystical accuracy last Friday - the Japanese Japanese crossed the level of 104.00, no matter how fantastic it was
it might have been at the time of the forecast. As for predictions on the traditional TA, they just didn't come in this week.
But of course we can't ignore the inexcusable error in the operational forecast for the Canadian. This error sowed doubt about the VTE's capabilities,
and for the author of the forecast the error cost a loss of $180.76. Unfortunately, I was unable to identify the cause of the error. Further work on VTE
I have not been able to determine the cause of the error.
Results of VTE trading for the third week :
03.03.08 to 07.03.08
Opening balance : 396.41
Closed profit/loss : +63.69
Floating profit/loss : -85.44
Closing balance : 460.10
Last week our method provided only two operational forecasts suitable for real trading : Pound forecast and Canadian forecast.
We ourselves have used these forecasts and obtained 63.69 dollars of profit. The floating loss occurred in the last hours of trading on Friday and was caused,
in our opinion solely due to the NFP event.
The forecast for the current timeframe will be as follows
- Euro : strong up trend, however, min. targets achieved, unambiguous operational prediction
- Pound: up trend, however, min. goals achieved, unequivocal short-term forecast
- CHF: price trend is unequivocal, it does not give out a clear short-term forecast
- Japanese : very strong downward trend, not all min. goals achieved, we forecast further downward movement
- New Zealander: stable sideways movement, cannot be forecasted unambiguously
- Canadian: very stable downward trend, the level of 0.9700 will be definitely reached, the only question is the timing
However, let's not be in a hurry, we will wait for the developments by the morning.

and our tried and tested rational ways don't work, we resort to irrational methods. Irrational methods have a dangerous tendency to become habitual, because then we cannot criticise ourselves or have doubts. There is a great danger that we will persist in our delusions....
When we don't understand everything: The Thorndike Effect When we are unable to analyse the causes of a certain situation, we act according to the following rule: if some of our previous actions have been successful, we repeat them. If the consequences are unfavourable, we will try something else. This rule, so to speak, is "programmed" in our thinking. In psychology it is known as the Thorndike effect, after the scientist who discovered it, Edward Lee Thorndike.
