You're still talking about probabilities however, not certainties.

Why do you believe a few people are able to make a few of the strangest egies work for them? Earlier in the thread you ignored several workable egies which have proven profitable for its writers, what does this tell you?

You don't need any elaborate egy, profound understanding, or specialist knowledge to trade profitably, only some very basic fundamentals, common sense, and discipline. The majority fail because they spend too much energy and concentrate on discovering/developing that a egy which will predict direction, much the same as you're doing. The penny drops and they understand consistently profitable trading has little to do with egy.
