It's just like the casino. It's the same business model. You can go down there and play blackjack, craps, or whatever you like. Roulette, you'll hit a hand or two. But we all know that over time, are you going to leave that casino with less money and more money. So if you try to manually trade against all of these, there's literally tens of thousands of algorithms running in all different time frames. How are you going to stand a chance? Can you be in front of the computer all day? Don't you get tired? Don't you get sleepy? Don't you get fearful? Don't you get afraid? When you're up against algorithms, they don't sleep, they don't eat. They have no emotion. They just trade. And none of this is magic. Casa just showed you it's not magic. What we do is something relatively simple. We just do it flawlessly.
