Of course, I want to know why people could beat the market, I already know some people believe so. I don't see any trolling, also I'm not a native speaker so I might have chosen the wrong words, but trust me I'm here to learn not to troll.
What is it you are interested in knowing how to do? "Beat the market" tells little. Do you want to learn to trade (difficult) or you just interested in outperforming the S&P or some other benchmark (not nearly as difficult).
I best the market and in 1994 even won yearly contest with 216%, but none of this matters in terms of you beating the market. It not signals or winning percentages for me, swing to longer term is controlling losing % and getting risk to reward insanely low. Much much charting
Yes, you can beat the market! This simple system beats QQQ (extrapolated to 1991) by about 25%. How's it work? Simple, on the last trading day of the month, if QQQ is above the 200 day SMA, stay long if already long. If not long, get long. If QQQ is below the 200DMA at the end of the month go to cash or stay in cash. That's it!
You're getting lost via the comparison of trading (you said - ...beat the market with trading) versus investing (you said - ...not even Warren Buffet has beaten the market in the last years). Therefore, ask yourself that question...you a trader or an investor ??? You can then better ask your question. wrbtrader
The key is Not to beat yourself.... be as one with the market Not opposed to “ beating it” ... you want what it wants ... that said, You control your own fate thru discipline! Understanding PA is what puts one “ with” the market... not opposed to it!
