It is true that there are many ways to make money.
Whatever method that can be found on the 'let me teach you how to make money from financial markets' market exists because someone has used those methods and made big money from it. But as you will have on multiple ocassions, just because something worked for someone doesn't mean it will work for you.
Here's an example. Both LTCM and Ren Tech used quant models and big data to generate trading ideas and employed massive leverage. But why did one eventually blow up while the other has done so well for so long? Probably one has built a better model, and fed it with better data, than the other.
So whatever your game of choice is, you just have to be sure you are well-equipped to do it better than the rest in the same game.
