Re: Seed's journal
I also love sports. Can you explain how it's your motivation? Do you mean you want to retire early and play sports all the time? Watch sports? Get a career in sports without having to worry about making a lot of money at it?

Re: Seed's journal
Haha, got it. That's what jumped out at me, but that doesn't mean you should stop! It's your journal and your idea playground

Re: Seed's adventure
Yes. I like Mark Twain's quote that "What gets us into trouble is not what we don't know. It's what we know for sure that just ain't so." IOW, the only way to consistently profit is from market inefficiencies created by people who are wrong yet believe they are right. It is this belief that imposes a level of unrandomness (structure) that one can target. Good targets are human psychology, academic training, government policy, and laziness.plantingtheseed wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 1:53 amAs Buffett often states Carveth Read's quote, "It is better to be vaguely right than exactly wrong", I believe MPT is vaguely right not necessarily because it is right but more so because of the sheer number of people that are using it.
However, all this exists on levels in the sense of a Keynesian beauty contest. Regular profit is only made in the interaction between two adjacent levels. For example, one can not profit from value investing (or mean reversion strategies) in a market driven to insane valuations by momentum. The reason is that prices are at a point where there's nothing to buy and moving in a direction that just causes further losses. It doesn't work because the Keynesian levels are too far apart. In order to profit consistently (rather than once a decade) the key is to be slightly less wrong than wrong---because insisting on being right makes it impossible to engage. (This is a hard art to master.)
