Abstract

Traders never stop looking for the PERFECT system, the one that creates profits in every trade and never yields the nasty surprise of loss. This perfect system is the sure thing. And even though everyone knows it doesn’t exist, the search never stops.

It is living and ceasing to live that are imaginary solutions.

André Breton, Manifesto of Surrealism, 1924
