Dear MachineLearn,

I will be traveling to an Asian country tomorrow. Based on the timezone, NY session would be at night. US equities open at 9 pm local time.

That means I'll be looking forward to spending Monday night with you.

Please do not disappoint and bring your A-game.

Sincerely,
Fleps.
Please join me in my journey for 100 perfect trades. See my journal!

If I disappoint, we will be disappointed together brother.

Tons of unforeseen issues could lay ahead and I'm not ignorant to that.

If there are unforeseen issues, it could end up being a long night. But I'm sure we can pound it through.

Sure hope so, however if there's one thing I know it's that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.

Dynamic conditions that I will take into consideration as market nears open. Things I'll be studying keenly.

 

  1. One asset may have a naturally wider cost of entry than the other
  2. Trade execution may not be perfectly synchronized
  3. Price gaps between assets can last longer than expected
  4. One side may move faster, skewing outcomes
  5. Signal accuracy can depend on historical range settings
  6. Some hours of the day produce more consistent relationships
  7. Entry points may trigger prematurely during erratic movement
  8. Different platforms may show slightly different pricing
  9. Being down on both positions at once can create pressure
  10. Exits need room to handle temporary overextensions

Complicated and Irrelevant and TMI(my personal opinion, do not get upset). The simpler the better, just for fun, I may look at stretched ATR and how momentum treating each instrument. One of my edges is I know how to measure momentum, but will be secretive for now as my man @Machine

100% Agree, I been training myself this weekend how to be humble. Not easy when one is at the high of profits for the year to date, but a must.

Projecting: I am humble, I am strong silent type, I am humble, etc....

This is all very simple stuff my good sir.

You do the same thing in your trading, I've just labeled it.

After trading these two instruments for the better part of 8+ years, there’s definitely an ebb and flow to them. Most of the time they will move together, unless a market rotation, fundamental's, etc is happening. There’s also time of day that makes a big impact.

Not certain of the logic of shorting one while longing the other. Seems like overthinking rather then KISS.

Best of luck anyways.
Trade with confidence, trade without fear.

Projecting over complication without full comprehension seems a tad ignorant.

Quite the oxymoron


"I've been doing this a specific way for many years (to no success most likely as well) and anything other than how I conduct my system seems over complicated."

Ask some questions man, there's already people who fully understand the underlying simplicity in the logic of the system. Don't project because you don't get it.

@Machine, Valid point, but also Yo, I learned few things from @Crypto....the only other person on FF that I know of trading live and making great money. We traded together through Covid years..his presence is interesting.

I'm sure he's a great guy, that comment just exudes ignorance. There's no hard feelings though.

Im not trying to pour cold water on it and I understand completely what it is you're trying to do. There’s HFT firms that do slight variations (in certain market conditions). RickM also made a valid comment in the other thread as well.

Trading index futures can be fairly easy and straightforward as it is.

I'm glad you think it's very simple. Not quite sure why you're wasting time in my thread if you have everything figured out already. Good luck.
