Philosophy

It doesn't take new traders long to realize how genuinely difficult it is to make trading worth it. That is, worth the time, risk, mental energy, and effort, due to the uncertainty and unreliability. If earning reliable, consistent profits was easy, everyone would do it, and none of them would succeed. Such is the nature of any market. A skillful low timeframe strategy capitalizes on found inefficiencies. If these inefficiencies become widely known, arbitragers and deep-pocketed veterans will render them nonexistent. By definition.

What does this amount to? A deceiving landscape, where many can't distinguish between a strategy that made money because it was lucky this time, and a strategy that made money because it was blessed to skillfully capitalize on self-correcting inefficiencies.

By iterating through combinations and ideas generated by proprietary trading experience and the use of tools and models I've built over time, I hope to come as close as I can to a strategy that fits the bill. That is:

Anyone with a shred of sense would kill for an algorithmic system that meets all the criteria. I simply hope to come as close as I can, while having fun along the way.
