At what price did you first decide that Tulip Bulbs had no value?

How about just trend-follow? When it is going up buy, when it starts going down, sell. You don't need to try to decide on the value.

That's not investing, of course. It's just speculating on the price trend.
Newton's error was holding when the price drop began.

Yeah, that chart doesn't show when Newton's friends (who got rich) exited their trades. "How to lie with statistics. And charts."
