Sorting the Wheat from the Chaff
Sorting the wheat from the chaff involves doing your own research.
For instance, there are some claims on here at the moment,as have been for months about the effectiveness of a system out forward as 2011System of the Year. The claims have beenrefuted by a couple of posters who have provided factual evidence. These posters who have refuted the effectivenessI respect very much. BUT, to those newon here, I would recommend that you always DYOR in every case. How can we not get consensus on what should be a matter of reporting facts?
Why should we do our own research when the data is in front of our eyes and genuinely offered?
Coz the input data might be flawed ….. (chrome prince’s data I would back with my life, but saying that, still DYOR, and he would surely say the same)
Coz the program analysing the data might be flawed …..
I’d also be wary of systems offered up, not necessarily on here, that don’t have back-up data. It’s my perception that some might offer a system up, then check to see how many mug punters have followed it, then lay the systems they are offering as a winner, or punt the system they are offering as a lay system. Then run a similar process, with similar rules all over again. I’m sure this is a little money spinner for some. It’s the mug punters fault for sure, no-one else’s, but DYOR.
There’s many a system offered on here, especially way, way back in time that seem to do very well indeed, and have data that can be checked. There the ones I’d look in to,there the one’s that may have stood the test of time.
