Frankly, I am looking forward to the time a major blow-out will happen out of this, since it will only be under the most extreme circumstances...
Would basic supply/demand not apply? I mean, if there is little interest in a particular market, it is more likely to be price erratically. In...
All systems, automated or not, fail eventually. There are 2 associated issues: 1) how does one detect the failure of a system? I will...
Trading aspects which I find "hard" (ie. I am performing below my expectations): - identifying & validating possible edges - programming setup...
+1 if I can add to that ... markets are inherently uncertain, as a result you cannot predict the outcome of the current trade - never. Once you...
Have you tried inverting the other filter & test your new filter on the 170 setups that are currently discarded? I would expect the "good" part...
I doubt the 30 samples heuristic applies to trading, especially to backtesting. But your filter impacts 35% of the setups, and it appears to be...
It still sounds like you have not verified the performance of your method on a large enough sample of setups (500+), and as a result you do not...
Why are you handicapping yourself ... is trading just too easy for you? Seriously, fund your account properly, and trade as you should. If 4K...

I definitively pay attention both to Day of Week & Time of Day ... actually in conjunction. It is obvious that some time windows are better for...
A correlated question you should ask is "and how long will it take me to get to a point where I can consistently make money trading" and...
With the right data-mining tools (which I understand you do have), it should be easy to find if this is statistically significant or not. Why...
I would suspect the Day of Week has a meaningful impact on the trade outcome ... specifically, in a bull market, you'll probably see price going...
I see 2 sorts of opportunities for "ideal" pullbacks: 1) "strong" trend - how one defines a "strong" trend isn't the point ... the point is, an...
I think you should provide guidelines so that most answers interpret "consistently profitable" in a compatible manner. Also, what about traders...
