The edge is a measure of outperforming a break-even system by predicting a market. Both, your counter-example and the paper you posted in this thread is pseudo-math. I am not going to argue with all the nonsense you posted in the previous message ...

There is no catch. It is valid for any E. You verification method is faulty. Hint, there is no need for a MC-sim but you need to understand the Kelly Criterion which serves as a guide for people who like money to maximize their Expected (bankroll) ...

It's just a joke playfully masquerading as a wisdom. No math involved. Here is another one of the same sort: better to be rich and healthy than poor and sick. Next time say what you mean, it helps in conversations, I am not a mind reader. ...

The answer is over staking, or risking too much. To grow his bankroll the trader needs an edge and proper stake sizing. Kelly Criterion deals with the latter. If a trader has an edge and uses lesser than optimal stakes (uses Kelly multiplier which ...

No, you are not. So, you like the explanations why the coin turns up heads vs. tails. Fine, but the mathematician do not care about this. They work with probabilities, something that you do not understand, as the example below clearly shows. This is ...

Just don't compare gambling and black jack, ok?

If you want to draw a parallel with the story then that would have been a broker that charges 6+% in commissions. Contrary to your assumption, it is not easy to trade at break even with such a broker.

Don't log off, just close the RD window, this will keep the session always running which includes MT4 and EA. yes, there is a "remote" (pun intended) possibility that this session will "jam" due to an application or a process crash resulting in your ...
