Backtesting irregularities
mugsgame posted several vids on utube clearly demonstrating his ability to read markets and to very aggressively trade those markets he was reasonably sure he was able to predict the fav's likely direction using large stakes. inevitably he often closed out for decent greens and to his credit, he also showed his errors and occassional cockups and large reds.
he made it look quite easy, and i assume that is the attraction of his courses.
trading appears simple, it can only be easy, the price can stay the same, go up, go down, nothing else, 3 things nothingmore than that.
its not hard to imagine people seeing his vids and thinking along the lines, "if he can do that (which i have no doubt at all that he can), its not hard, so can i, how hard can it be, easy money to be made" and so on. the allure of easy money, slickish marketing, good old down to earth brummie geezer who appears to be your mate, etc, etc ,etc.
i doubt it very much, think more of life of brian.
did you learn to trade two against one effectively in an agrressive manor?

He doesn't necessarily look for 2 vs 1 situations.

I always feel a bit saddened by comments like this. 100yrs of great movies and most people choose to watch movies because they're new rather than because they're good.deansaccount wrote: ↑Sun Jul 08, 2018 9:37 pmNope never seen it, quick google search has revealed I was not even born when it was released in 8th Nov 1979
Hollywood needs to close for a year to let people catch up.
true, but by piecing together a few BA videos & by studying the charts of the day thread, there is practically the fundamentals there to put oneself in positive trading territory more often than not, works for me now, (apart from Saturday’s for some reason)ShaunWhite wrote: ↑Sat Jul 07, 2018 2:30 pmKorattt, I've spoken with people who have put every indicator from betfair and many others into machine learning software and I can tell you that a magic bullet indicator really doesn't exist.
