This thread is the next step from having found a suitable trading strategy. The strategy uses Bollinger Band period 80 and 20 on a hour chart.
Here we discuss the bots trading to see if it can be refined.
First refinement comes from the trading seen at start of week. There was a huge drawdown. Why?
Well last week Risk was on. That meant buy trades would be opened. By end of trading last week Risk was still on. But then the middle east erupted over the weekend. Some drones were sent to bomb the Saudi's oil facilities. When markets opened Risk was off or trying go off by assessing what world leaders were saying.
Unfortunately the bot had no way of gauging a changing of gears. That is the bot had no reversal alerts setups. So buy trades were pumped and DD shot up.
I had to close trades by Wednesday ,. Mean while I tried to figure how to assess market changes an then code that in so that our trading can match the same.
Side note, closing trades on a Friday is important . Clearly seen from what just happened this past week. So will updating a new version soon
