Jack Shwager the goat
Great interview.
At 38:24 "It was amazing how badly the system did when it stopped working". This makes me wonder why someone in this situation wouldn't then short his picks instead of purchasing them, I imagine a trader would be comfortable doing that. A bit like how George Costanza in Seinfeld began to do the opposite of what his natural inclinations were to start having success.
the markets ups and down is still a great profit with my financial Advisory Ryan stinger currently a stock professor and general market analyst, I started my portfolio with precisely $84,000 in stocks last month and currently over $796,000 in my portfolio , never had major loses all of that covered by his strategy policies and the auto stop loss is generating profits every minutes why are you all are crying in the market? .contact him with the above email, and feel comfortable to quit your jobs earn while relaxing at home you can start with as low as $250
this is because its hard to differentiate between reverse signal and noise, the reversal of the signal could still have significantly high drawdown
Slight correction: why wouldn't someone then _fade_ his picks?
It depends on whether the previously blow up of the system was due to continuous losses, or just a few big losses at the end.
If it is the second case, then it may not be profitable just going the other direction.
@leophotographyhk5248 im thinking it would be if he was selling options. Even sideways makes theta.

I enjoyed this interview but my inner skeptic kept on whispering in my ear : "how do we know this wasn't just blind luck ?" I can accept that before the arrival of desktop computers, it was possible for a human expert to beat the other humans. These days, i'm much more doubtful. I can see why people want to believe in star traders, because their stories offer hope that perhaps - with enough hard work and perseverance - you can emulate their success. Personally I believe that markets are effectively random, that there's no longer any conceivable 'edge', and that you're better off just sitting back and harvesting the risk premium. With that attitude, I guess I'm never going to be featured in one of Mr Schwager's books :)
Hi Chris, thanks for watching and commenting. That is a perfectly fair comment, and I think Jack would say luck and good timing are important variables and probably do have some impact on the success of each trader, especially early on. However, over a long enough period of time and throughout different markets, luck becomes less important and skill matters more (this is why we asked Jack about the track record question).
It sort of reminds me of Michael Mauboussin's, "Alpha and the Paradox of Skill". You can download the paper here, tinyurl.com/ffs96emz.
Here is the summary from the paper:
*There are two aspects to success in investing: proficiency and choosing an attractive game. The key to an attractive game is dispersion in skill, where
more skillful participants can benefit at the expense of less skillful ones.
*The paradox of skill says that in activities where results combine luck and skill, luck is often more important in shaping outcomes even as skill improves. In many competitive interactions it is the relative level of skill that matters, not the absolute level of skill. In many fields, including investing, the dispersion of skill is shrinking, which leaves more to luck.
*There is a positive correlation between the breadth of opportunities and the dispersion of fund returns.
*Pockets of inefficiency persist. These include diversity breakdowns, institutions competing with individuals, and trading with distressed counterparties.
Thanks again for watching!
@@ExcessReturns Thank you very much for such a comprehensive reply ! I'll read the paper later, much appreciated :)
Pretty simple actually. Just go short the SP500 for the next month :) But with low leverage
How lucky could you get in a casino? Could you get lucky 50 times out of 100? Probably not
But you can be lucky 40 times out of a 100 in trading and you can still make a killing
I think its very interesting that this video on has 15 comments. Its the old, dont teach me anything, just tell me what to buy. ;)
