I think that's true about the algo's, so long as the ranges are contained and no long term damage is done via the liquidity pulls/adds. The problems arise when something snaps and long term bigger money begins liquidating on top of all those algo liquidity pulls.
not liking the look of this but whenever I stop myself out early, I regret it, so just gonna leave it
I jumped out of gold positions Thursday much earlier than the signals indicated. Hope I don't regret that decision, but as I was in profit was in no mood to lose any more money waiting and seeing dollars slip away. Always a difficult decision, trade purely by signals or sometimes over-ride. Next few trading days will tell me if it was right thing to do.
