Do you understand that 'studies' are not necessarily reality? I know the "I fucking love science" crowd has replaced priests with professors, but professors, their data and their logic are also highly fallible. How about you go ahead and mock up a probability model about how a company like Jump Trading can make 100s of market neutral bets every day for ten years, and end up being lucky to make money on 95% of those days. The probability of that happening due to randomness around a 50% probability on each trade is probably lower than 1 in the number of atoms in the universe.
