    Had to close for -60, another socket disconnection wrecking havoc. Going to debug Friday/Monday.

    Weak price data, trying trend short on NQ 30-60 minutes.

    Edit: Trump tweeting shit so might have to exit this one.
    Edit2: Yepp -80. Short is still on but all initial trades stopped.

    Long trend NQ, will see how it fares. If it doesn't follow through quickly I'll stop manually.

    Stopped, -60 and had another crash. Just bleh, need to fix this code.

    Edit: Trying a short

    Edit2: Noticed it's easy to lose a lot of money fast when clicking a button to enter. Unfortunately can't do the non-directional bets as Russell crashes, lol

    Manually stopped for -30. Need to let market decide which direction it's going to go or this algo is useless.

    Manually stopped, 70 EUR profit (MFE 300). Need to fix an algo issue where it currently enjoys placing really wide stops under some circumstances.

    Edit: Restarting with reset position sizing to get more reasonable risk level.

    Edit: Manually stopped -40, back to backtesting after fixing connection bugs to resolve flaws in risk management.

    NAV 19698. Tempted to stay awake to China data but was a wreck today after messing with sleep yesterday, so going to bed. Plenty of US data to trade in afternoon anyway.

    Started algo on NQ short. Will see if it's too late (maybe this weak data is seen as positive, or its impact was taken out by market prior to announcement). Nonetheless, market has been in downtrend since morning my time.

    Closing for -30, don't want to keep position around open. Excursion was +50 to -200 so to the downside from where I entered.
