Question

Someone please enlighten a dumber than the average bear. If the position is taken that FOREX is a zero sum game, and if in time, everyone trades using these computers - who wins and who loses?

Basically we are talking about a kind of FOREX AI, artifical intelligence, that is able to read or adapt to changing market conditions. Would not all AI systems adapt instantaneously? Are some systems smarter than others?

Where does this all end?

I don't want to sound the pessimist, I wish Peteuk all the luck in his new adventure, but in the long run I think we will all be back to square one, Heads long tails short.

p.s. Thinking about the ever increasing and evetual barrage of super computers controlling currency markets, is it possible that the speed of transactions would be so fast that entire fortunes could be won or lost in nanoseconds?

Would this be a universal stalemate or meltdown?

The only winning move in this game would be no move at all, just something to ponder...............
