    Kudo to ya. But do you mind sharing the trades your algo made? I really would like to see a chart with the entries and exits. That would be more informative than your overall performance. Maybe I could even make some suggestions to improve the algo. :)

    I think another person asked the same thing.

    Here's the thing, I'm willing to show the authenticity of the results: i.e Screenshots, livestream video with active quotes, broker statements, invite you to my house for tea and biscuit to see my screen, whatever you want (monetary compensation for anyting above what I'm willing to share of course).

    But one thing I would not do is just give out excecution records willy nilly. This is a 100% mechancial system. Easy to backengineer. I don't ever claim this to be the best strategy, in fact it probably sucks compared to some of the super trading results I've seen on here.

    It's a strategy meant to be fully automatd, hopefully beating the index by 20-30% every year. The edge is miniscule (as we all can see), but I want to protect it as long as I could. Hope people understand.

    Of all my journals I never really go into executions, just results. I do talk about the general strategy. This particular journal is to explore if it's possible to beat the index passively using a mechanical system. I think 3 years is a mininmum track record right? So I'll keep updating daily (only takes 2-3 mins of my time) till the time is up or I blow up; either way, we will have our answer then.
