“Yup!”
A real test of the “Force Volatility Algorithm” today, as the DAX30 puts in
1) a small daily range, 2) some kind of variation of a “doji” by the close, and
3) the magical “Flying Wedge of Death” [FWD], that frustrates most traders at
every turn … throw in the usual gaggle of spikes up and down, and today’s
action a gigantic mess on the charts from the opening bell.
And yet, the algorithm absolutely nailed this market today with turns, that
will make you think it obeyed your one and only magical wand, and you can
make it do anything you want … just stunning.
OK, great … and as good as the algorithm was, your lovable, fuzzball host
“F’d up” six ways from Sunday [well, actually 4 but who’s counting]
… 2 mistaken orders botched, attempting to change the “volume” parameter
in the order box that saw “market buy” fills at the wrong time, and two [2]
completely botched liquidation sells, where I hesitated and wanted a point or
more from the market … bottom line, Algorithm up about $150, -vegas down
about -$240 and change, as those 4 “F ups” wiped out the days gains in the
other trades. The only good news, is that it only cost us less than a hundred
bucks, but still … “The dog wants to have me taken to the Vet and have me
“fixed”, but the Mrs. is tellin’ him noooooo, we’ll just save the money and use a
soft butter knife here at home”. Talk about gettin’ a dose of market humble pie,
this was it … especially since I had the “roadmap” right in front of me!
And while the mistaken 2 buy orders were bad enough, what really burns me is
the utter stupidity of telling the market, “I want more” before liquidation, when
I clearly knew it was time to exit the trade … just really insanely stupid on my
part, cuz I know better, and the market was only too happy to show me some
seconds later … profit to loss, pay the Piper dumb ass!
“Staring into “the abyss” isn’t something any trader looks forward to … but
staring into the mirror and realizing a retarded kitten could have done better than
you this day if it followed the same directions as you had … duh! … and then it
hits you that Homer Simpson is laughing at you … and the sad thing is, that
there’s no excuse you can give yourself, standing there peering at an idiot in the
mirror … only the pain of it all … and then you pull your “big girl” panties back
up and eat the pain like a man, and then move on to tomorrow with no baggage
from today … not easy, but you do it … experience teaches you”.
As I’m writing the algorithm manual now, I’ve decided to use the DAX30 as
the main headliner market for our trading, and showing readers how to use the
algorithm via examples, for a number of reasons; 1) the DAX30 is very close to
action in NDX100, 2) also remarkably close to the gold [XAUUSD] market,
3) the spread in the DAX30 is about as good s it gets anywhere you want to
trade, just like the NDX100 & XAUUSD, and 4) both oil markets,
Brent & WTI, have significantly higher spreads, move a helluva lot quicker on
average, and have action that is atypical from the other 3 markets. So, it’s an
easy choice for me to make.
I have some website work to do as well, as there are some files that need
updating, like performance, but in my opinion, the manual takes precedence
right now … I want to get this done ASAP, cuz it’s so damn powerful … and I
will say this again … “sure, I created it, I developed it, I crunched the numbers
literally by the hundreds of billions of bits of data … my insights, thoughts, and
ideas are behind it, with some help from staff, and I know what it can do and
ultimately under what condition it will lead to a losing trade … it will blow you
away with the signals, they are so damn good … but, and this is a very big “but”
… you have to make the trade when it says “DO IT”, SKIPPY! … you can’t wait
cuz you feel “uncomfortable” buying or selling where it says to do so, and you
have to liquidate the same way … doubt, uncertainty, etc., will only cost you
money … and nobody knows this better than me, and yet today, I traded like a
Newbie who’s been in the biz for about 5 minutes … cuz I was thinkin’ … well,
look what thinkin’ got me/us” … so, I say to all of you reading this, when you get
the algorithm upon release, be mentally tough & prepared to accept the challenge
of following it … it won’t take that long, trust me, but it’s not child’s play either”.
A bunch of trades today … PAMM down about $90 and change … should be up
$150+, but that’s water under the bridge already discussed.
Volumes will go up tomorrow … we’ve had 2 days in a row of sub 20 DAY
range MA values go substantially below the average … tomorrow looks to be a
good trading day, and I’ll be there to capture our share of it … today the
algorithm shined, and I was a doofus … tomorrow’s another day … and with
that, I’m outta here to work some on the manual … until tomorrow mi amigos
… Onward & Upward!!
I haven’t got the trades posted to the spreadsheet … I’ll have ‘em up either
tonight or tomorrow.
Have a great day everybody!
