Hi Guitar Jim,

I think we have both beat our chests long and hard enough,i dont want to continue this behavior.

I agree that almost all simple little mechanical systems are doomed to failure but really it all comes down to the system rules themselves,i'm not going to reveal my angle but it is simplistic it is mechanical and therefore is classed as a system but it is worlds apart from what i bet you are calling a system,here in lies our problem,you are painting all "systems" with the same brush,i prefer to look at them individualy and judge them on the logic and edge over the competition they have.

If a system is based on very sound principles,principles that arent some statistic anomaly that will change with time,i see no reason why it cant turn a profit in the future as long as ones staking approach is sound.
