Thanks for the guidance and stressing the importance of that
overhead resistance, the boxed in consolidation and of the news
today and tomorrow, waiting and watching...
on a side note one of my older sub systems went short yesterday
the Strap. I was no longer using this version of course because
remember I tightened everything up earlier this year to the high
probability stuff, I basically threw out anything that didn't have
a profit factor over 13. This one had a profit factor just
over 7, though the trades have low draw down and a decent profit
curve. But it's a mute point as we do not have that one active,
just showing it for informational purposes
the concept of the STrap short is pretty easy to understand, and
it's pretty hard to trigger: Basically a Stochastic has to get very
overbought while price is still below a fairly fast MA of say 20,
which is hard to do because most of the time when Stochastic gets
overbought price would be above the MA.
anyway the market is having a lot of gyrations up here and news
abound so we'll see what it does today and of course tomorrow
I appreciate that and I like following the systems with the
higher profit factor too. Don't mind missing some trades if the
others have higher probability!
