I can't speak for anyone else, but from my perspective it seems that you've been obscuring your own point.

My original point was: I was defending the argument that neural nets were no better than a coin toss. I stated that 50/50 could still be profitable with position sizing.

I really don't know enough about neural nets to have an opinion on this particular subject. When I want to know about computers I bug Win-Lose-or-Draw about it until he reduces it down to simple enough language for me to understand. {g/ng}

With that said, I think the basic question of how to make money consistently depends on several factors, the first and foremost of which is to avoid losses and to minimize those losses which are unavoidable.
