Today the ATS went long the break of the 11:05am ET bar high. Nearly a 120-tick bar and the system just trades its dumbass trader signals, doesn't give a sh*t about anything else. Takes a quick 21-tick loss and waits patiently until the next trade sets up.
Next setup that met its criteria was into the NYMEX close, long the break of the 2:20pm ET bar high, and it's still holding. Makes the 21-tick loser seem totally irrelevant now.
I about crapped when I heard the trade signal go off on that 11:05 bar long position
