hi molson22, correct, GDX should've stopped out as the HP KISS STS was at 49.84 and GDX now at 48.70.  there will be a Flat alert when the GDX 130 min candle closes which should be soon.  the Flat alert however is just informational as you should always have an STS stop in place and that would have exited the trade.  I will also send you an email directly.

I texted James/Matt this morning about this, we're using ticket 2766 to track it- there's definitely something wrong when I pull up the chart for the HP KISS QQQ Daily.  I will send you an email jonesy85 separately also. 

help desk ticket 5310, I already sent it to James to look into

The open price

To all our members: if you are using an AOL or Yahoo email, please DO NOT contact our support via the Contact page on the website (the messages go into limbo and I have to fish them out once a week internally).  PLEASE EMAIL SUPPORT@BREAKPOINTTRADES.COM.  orlandoaoc@yahoo.com - I mentioned to you in February in a past email NOT to use the Contact page; sorry your message got stuck again (we are addressing the reason why these messages get stuck with our IT).  But as of this morning, we are communicating directly with each other, which is good.  Thank you for your patience.

najor, I've gone ahead and created a ticket for this and emailed you.  for website bugs, enhancement requests, etc. go ahead and email the support@breakpointtrades.com so we can track it with a ticket number.  thanks.

oreo, Matt updated the table over the weekend (I guess the first update didn't save) and now it reflects Trend/Pullback closures; also I sent you an email.  thank you for your patience.

hi najor, I asked Matt just now and he said they are still the same version, but Matt will eventually test those

Matt said just a few min ago that QE BTS (both SPY and MES) are not looking to exit yet

wimcor, it's an error; I emailed you back with a ticket number and told James about it

STS update- hi mastermind, I've alerted Matt and James already; normally Matt runs it and I have access to run it also but the process is not working for me (maybe a permissions issue), so I've messaged Matt already

rmoore100: I asked Matt and he said: no GS did not close out, neither did DIA or SPY on volatility systems

vasiboy, I sent you an email just now also with a help  desk ticket number.  But the short answer is that stops on KISS HP CAN and DO in fact go down at times (versus the previous STS stop) because they are based on volatility.

re-testing of several systems by Matt have reported better stats (increases in profit factors); process is still ongoing.  Matt may share more soon in the Announcements section of the HP KISS.

Clean hydrogen production and Aviation fuel are the big uses for Platinum in the future.

articles talking about fundamental drivers for Platinum

While still in its early stages, demand for PGMs has been increasingly linked to the energy transition process. One key area is clean hydrogen production, achieved through either electrolysis or converting methane from fossil fuels with carbon capture.
Aviation, which currently accounts for 3% of global energy consumption, is another sector driving new demand for PGMs. As the industry pursues net zero, various technologies will rely on PGMs.
In a nutshell, there will still be strong demand for PGMs even if the internal combustion engine ceased to exist.

current HP KISS Daily $INX STS level is 5,874.73

hello - I'm going to email you separately and log a ticket for this so we can investigate further.  you are correct in saying that the Text alert to go Flat today shouldn't have said 89.80, as the lowest price of the day was around 91.36.  And no to answer your question, if the price gaps below the STS price, it shouldn't be using the STS stop price.  For example, NVDA gapped down today and the NVDA 30 STS was 134.315 but the trade table rightfully shows an exit price of 124.87 which is about where it opened today.  And yes, UPRO 78 and a number of other HP KISS systems had a stop out and re-entry on the same day but the issue with that was that texts were sent out indicating it was Flat, but no text was sent indicating a new Long when it re-entered.  James deployed a fix and should be fixed now.

Hi erikwil, there are systems amongst the Reversion to Mean systems that do shorts, you can read about them in the above link (QE Short, Exhaustion Short #1, etc.).  As far as inverse ETFs, those apply to the KISS Systems (a different group of systems), and that is something that is in progress.  For further clarification, send me an email at support@breakpointtrades.com and I can expand on the topic.  best regards, Rik

Hi chad99, QQQ 78 now shows Flat in the HP KISS STS table; what happens is that the 78 min candle needs to close first and then about 10-15 min after candle close, it shows Flat in the table.  best bet is to already have a STS in place and then use the Flat SMS text to confirm the stop out, along with table as the final confirmation.  any issues like this in the future you can email support@breakpointtrades.com and we can track it with a help desk ticket.  best regards, Rik
