Those are exactly the rules, that underlie my test. I share the same experience: I often was excited to have found promising strategies on the charts only to see the backtests showing me the opposite. I learned, that my eyes see what they want to ...

For my trading (both algo and manual), time (more precise: time period) is as much as important as price. Time periods divide the price movements into equal chunks and enables me to judge the momentum, which is an important dimension in my trading. ...

Hi Mika, interesting study, as it confirms my observations, that mean reverting approaches usually work better in Forex (at least in algo trading). I'm an algo trader too, and up to now I haven't been able to create a profitable strategy based on ...

Hi Ryan, I am following your work since 2017 and although I stopped using grid / averaging / martingale techniques as well as using tick data, I still like your work mainly because of your tranparency. I would like to comment on 2 point concerning ...

Honestly, after several years I realized, that the only way for me to overcome emotions in trading is to keep my hands off the buy/sell-buttons and leave trading to my algorithms. The main challenge is, that as a private trader, you are not ...
