After an interest in weather all of my life, I surprisingly pursued weather forecasting after 1997-8. My interest was long range experimental. Thoughts went into space and mathematical angles planets as a 3-way geometry, predicting infinite time, or to compare global warming, but no interest in computer programming and these ideas were solo, so I found futures trading goals to be something to pass the time (money). This began in 2010 and in 2011 I was trading an account worth $80,000. In the beginning, made it as high as $220,000, which is enough to cover what would have been college, then the account dropped on some identified as anomalous activity. For the next few years, I went through some pretty odd experiences considering my person: Homelessness, jail, eventually mental hospital, all while attempting to plot futures data with money making goal in mind. I knew how to trade the futures in this time, but "energies" made it need to be science-based for presentation, and my laziness because life is always enjoyable. <3
After returning to family in 2015, I began to "heal" . In this time, I focused a serious effort on the market. 154,381 data points plotted, from most of 32 Futures in the time periods of 1day, 2day, 3day, 4day, 1week (thinkorswim). The result was what I expected: in the +/+ part of an X-Y graph, the next day had probability for positive price and a linear opposite correlation on the reverse side, -/-. See image below.
Of course, separated for grains-grains, currencies-currencies. It became silly plotting the market, because running positives were positive and running negatives,. The market is, on average, advantageous.
My research of mathematical studies showed one to be best in opposition of the market. This is what I began practice trading on November 18, 2016. The practice trade account, with TD Ameritrade was worth $100,000. Every day, moves were made, and most trades were reverse-pattern predictions. I have to be honest when I say that when my practice trade account moved into times when good presentation could become possible, I learned so much. Good-Bad, the significance of meditation. 173 trading days later, this same account is worth $645,000. 97 days have been positive days, 76 days negative. This is 15-20% chance. With average standard deviation of +6%, 15-20% also. I would like to be top 5%, which it was before the last 2-3 weeks. (has been a peaceful time but generally disinterested in the market).
This is my practice trade results:
173 days, 8 months and 6 days.
This doesn't include the statistical method which is still a work in progress because I don't have a computer fast enough to manage the level of Excel computing. It's 99% complete. The program is more than 400mb, and government record makes it difficult to get a short term job to afford better computer. Can trade futures well. Always open and willing to learn more.
