Thanks for your help with them Julian..your patience was appreciated

That is great with no leverage, dude! Also cool about the short system. I kick new ideas around for shorts every week or two, but I can’t get anything to pass the smell test. Was there something on the short side that made it click for you?

Cheers!

Hi Seth. Despite many hours I couldn’t find anything that works on the short side as a breakout. I could only get it as an exhaustion of a “shooting star”…..so sells off after major price rise

[JulianCohen]

Me too….Trying to find something that isn’t RSI in that case is also a bother.

However there are many ways to measure “over extension” so have at it!

Big miss for GME on Friday…short entry was for 14.38…will be interesting after 6 months or so to compare results with backtest

[Nick Radge]

Did you query the reason?

[JulianCohen]

I got filled for GME on that day

Sorry

[ScottMcNab]

Nice work Scott!!!

100% agree with the ‘looking better last week’ analysis!!!!

All my systems were looking GREEN last week… but have to get the RED crayon out to make some corrections to the stats for End Of Month….

[ScottMcNab]

Yeah…it seems to happen so often…kick in the teeth in last week of the month..surely some sort of confirmation bias or other effect distorting my recollection but in the end got to laugh
