Do you think the urge to add complexity is actually a subconscious way for traders to avoid admitting that some market outcomes are just random and uncontrollable?

That’s a great question. I do think complexity can sometimes be a psychological hedge against uncertainty. If we add enough layers, it can feel like we’re reducing randomness — even when we’re just disguising it. Markets will always contain elements we can’t control. The goal, at least in my framework, isn’t to eliminate uncertainty but to build rules that remain durable in spite of it.

Appreciate you subscribing — I’ll take a look at your work as well.
