For the Daily KISS systems, I believe stops are only triggered on a closing basis. For the new high performance / shorter time frame version (not yet released), stops will be intrabar i.e. if and when the level is hit.

Hi Matt, these 78m systems look great. Which of them has the highest / lowest winning percentage? I like to factor that into my trading as I still take losers too personally!

My indicator says 9.

Not underrated in the UK or their home town of Manchester, which is my home town :) 

The city produced some great Indie bands in the 80s and 90s as well as the Smiths - Joy Division, New Order, James, Happy Mondays, The Verve, Stone Roses, The Charlatans, plus Oasis of course. A great time to be alive. 

Hi Matt, re your newsletter last night, I have looked at some of your previous screenshots for the new VIX Bollinger Band strategy and noticed that some of the SPY trades were a bit early, so I was inspired to try to re-create the strategy in TradeStation and for good measure I added scale-ins - this improves the Profit Factor as you can see. I have also attached screenshots of recent trades. Also, in your newsletter you mentioned the strategy can "scale out at average true range moves" - can you possibly give me a little more insight on how the ATR is used so that I can attempt to code this type of exit?

Hi Matt, just out of interest, is the DVDS short still in play as per the rules of the code?

Matt, you're such a tease, it's uncanny how often your systems take us to the brink - to hell and back, baby!   

It might be old but didn't you say a couple of weeks ago that the DVDS system has 100% winning trades? No age discrimination on this site... :) 

Hi Matt, can you confirm the new stop for MES Breakout trade after today's close? Thanks.

Glad, choose the S&P500 or Nasdaq100 tab at the top of the page, then in the box immediately below make sure you select 'Long'. By default, stocks  in the KISS tables are filtered by 'new' results e.g. new STS, new Flat, etc. However, AMZN is an existing long at the moment.

Hi Mundy, it's ChatGPT not GBT. There is a longish thread on 8 March involving Matt, including posting of code by another and Matt introducing his MACD kiss concept. 

Hi Matt, does the Breakout system have up to 3 x scale-in entries like the reversion-to-mean systems?

Matt, looking at the past trades on that sub-system and the many other system screengrabs you have posted in the past, it appears to me that rather than going into cash you could simply reverse into a trade in the opposite direction (perhaps scaling in) and make money. Have you ever backtested that for any of the sub-systems? 

Matt describes it as follows in a post on 28 Nov 2022:

"The A's are pretty good, Amateur buying at tops, and Amateur selling at lows. Basically it's volume declining and smaller size prints in volume as price goes up or down; for example in an uptrend when price gets exhausted, you get the late buyers, typically individuals who trade small size few hundred shares, not institutions who are large prints. During downtrends you get the very late sellers or shorts who are selling very oversold conditions."

On TradingView charts such as the one in this thread, does anyone know what the purple flash inside a purple circle denotes?

Yes, it's one of Matt's proprietary algorithms - I don't think it's part of the BPT SPY/ES sub-systems but it's clearly a powerful tool.  Matt describes it as follows in a post on 28 Nov 2022:

'Amateur' buying / selling.  Don't be an A....... :)

Ha, I should have said entertaining and educational. As the current resident Grizzly of the BPT community, you always provide a very useful counterpoint to those of a more bullish / kool-aid drinking (delete as applicable) disposition.

Fredsaid is very entertaining.

Would be interesting to see those stats updated for the past few years :)
