  1. No worries not offended at all, as I told you , I was curious. Is your blackbox doing well these last 2 months?

    not really. july was really messy but august was relatively ok. the sudden increase in vola turns an otherwise successful algo into a lose canon. clearly , i'd get the most out of it when vola resumes the downtrend.

    Interesting, so basically you are following a trend based "system". On the other note charts look quite scary ImO, if support doesn't materialise, then it's getting closer for a possible big drop. Indicators heading lower, though world indexes seem to advance bit by bit looking more like a bear flag, 4 hour chart's MACD is at centerline. Anyway, that's my 2c based on classic TA :).

    not really.

    i guess my algo does well in all sorts of environment other than the typical panic selloff situation because the sudden spike in volatility inverts the rules of the game (not because it was following a trend).

    thanks for your analysis anyway.

    with 4 hour candle's strong close (If), I would be worried if short, W forming on 10 min chart
