Where are the stops on

    Where are the stops on the system trades ?  If we get down to the symmetry target 3858 will they still be holding / adding ?

    fred you ask the same

    fred you ask the same thing every time and every time I post the same repies,  do blog search reversion to mean systems stops by matt - you will pull up dozens of posts. Again, the systems will exit on a bounce, not on a hard stop at lows. That said I can post the max historical draw down for these sub systems and that can be a guide such as setting a stop WIDER than the max historical draw down, here's a post from the past, once again I suggest reading the link to the past post below

    and here's a search result showing all results, look through this to see other past posts regarding stops and the mean reversion systems

    that said remember what I said before: typically when we get a lot of posts worrying about or crying about the systems taking heat, generally some sort of price reversal is getting close. We don't have too much of that yet, but if we get another sell off we'll probably see a lot more posts - think of like the VIX or a contrarian indicator, when emotion gets every high and you can't stand it anymore, the market is probably due for a bounce 

    Hey Matt.  This happened again.

    Hey Matt.  This happened again.  When you get a lot of posts worrying about the systems taking heat is a good contrarian indicator.  Stick to the systems people.

    yep! it came right on

    just like my post from

    just like my post from this morning when some posted worrying commented about the reversion to mean systems being long and taking heat.

    my comments were that you start seeing posts like when the market is nearing inflection points, kind of like the VIX, when emotion starts to get high, the market is close to a turn, and so far that's been the case today with a nice move off those morning lows since that worrying posts about the systems this morning

    Ahhh... sorry when I see

    Ahhh... sorry when I see the big max historical charts my eyes glaze over but I've got it now.  No hard stops.  One more clarification and appologies in advance because you've probably answered it.  Do all the systems have potential of taking up to 3 max entries ?

    I was wondering the same
