Turned on short trend NQ for the heck of it, will see if it can accomplish something.

Seems I quit prematurely, could have nearly doubled the gain. Oh well, the temptation to lock in what was mine was too great.

Nah terminating, better to re-enter after a pullback. NAV 20581

Restarted algo at +680 to scale down its risk size, not sure how long this rally will be sustained.

Trying long NQ again. Missed spike when restarting algo...

Initial trade stopped for -30, shutting down algo and will retry after open instead. Seems too indecisive right now.

Algo long NQ. Waiting for an excuse to go higher.

Screw this, exited for -25, "trend" terminated abruptly on entry.

Closed NQ short algo for +200 (lost 20 EUR due to two superfluous roundtrips due to new bugs at first). NAV 19957 Edit: Not the kind of big win I am looking for but we may be in a new uptrend now so I can't be short for long.

Minor tweaks to algo to lock in profit according to my own preference (just to have a better psychological time seeing it run) and fixed an error in stop size calculation leading to occasionally wider than reasonable stops. Extended backtest to some random trend entries to confirm it it's at...

lol that's just gold. Yeah you should really be trading options if you're a dummy.

Closed at +80, DE30 not behaving in a way that I designed algo for (looks a lot like wedge in terms of classic chart pattern) so not going to take my chances. Of course, the whole point of this algo is to eventually have a large >+500 win to offset all the small losses so today's result is...

Started algo long for DE30EUR on pullback due to tariff news.

Closing for -30, don't want to keep position around open. Excursion was +50 to -200 so to the downside from where I entered.

Started algo on NQ short. Will see if it's too late (maybe this weak data is seen as positive, or its impact was taken out by market prior to announcement). Nonetheless, market has been in downtrend since morning my time.

NAV 19698. Tempted to stay awake to China data but was a wreck today after messing with sleep yesterday, so going to bed. Plenty of US data to trade in afternoon anyway.

Trying to short a bit last half hour with algo since market seems rather trendy this time of day lately Nope exit for -10

Manually stopped, 70 EUR profit (MFE 300). Need to fix an algo issue where it currently enjoys placing really wide stops under some circumstances. Edit: Restarting with reset position sizing to get more reasonable risk level. Edit: Manually stopped -40, back to backtesting after fixing...

Pressing long trend button on NQ once more...
