How to navigate the markets

Much of what’s out there has no basis in how actually markets work. Markets are just a bunch of people (smart and well-endowed, well-equipped people, but still: just people) making decisions. (And before you point out much is done by algos today, yes, but they were also programmed by people to make decisions.)

So the patterns that emerge from all that activity are patterns rooted in crowd behaviour (have you ever wondered how difficult it is to foresee one person’s behaviour, yet it is not rocket science to predict how crowds pour out from a baseball or soccer stadium?). So if we want to understand financial markets, we must study a bit of crowd behaviour.

And since crowd behaviour is ancient, patterns that are actual results of crowd behaviour tend to persist. Everything else is random noise. (And you can’t make money in a random environment, see our random chart generator for further study). And here’s where our edge becomes important: out task as traders is, simply, to differentiate, as much as possible, crowd behaviour patterns from random noise. And then quantify them, which in this day an age, we do with computer software (and then work it all into a trading plan, but we’ll leave that for another post).

So this is where the Remek! Momentum Standalones enter the picture: trading is hard, and if you’re not using a crystallized methodology, chances of success will remain elusive. Luckily, we have put 14 years of experience, daily engagement with the markets, into one rock-solid methodology, crystallized and ready to help you navigate the markets!

While the internet is full of pundits that claim “90% accuracy” and “4:1 reward/risk ratios”, the fact is that that kind of edge would be like a hundred dollar bill on the sidewalk. Would it be there a week later? A minute later? Not likely. Same with any edges on the market. Tens of thousands of the smartest minds on the planet, with budgets and equipment we only dream of ‘scan the sidewalk’ for edges every second the markets are open! You bet anything big is quickly picked up and neutralized, before it even shows up on our screens!

So perhaps we can agree, based on the above, that when we hear about “90% accuracy” and “4:1 reward/risk ratios”, and other such utter nonsense, the best thing we can do is … well, run the other way.

Or sign up for Remek! Premium and let us teach you how to do this. Our edges are small and hard-to-exploit, but they at least exist. Delve in, see it for yourself!

Remek! Premium review Aug-Sept 2022 - Futures, foreign currency and options trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
