You're right that it is ridiculously simple to generate a good looking equity curve - this is trivial. But I most definitely don't agree that there are no "statistical edges". There absolutely are, but they don't come from a trader's *results*. That's not statistics, that's "resulting" - judging the quality of an idea by its results. This is a totally invalid approach.

A real statistical edge is based around things that happen in the markets with a repeatable, statistical frequency, that you can exploit for positive expectancy. This is absolutely real but it's not very sexy, and I don't think very many people think this way and even fewer apply it to their trading.
