Saying this, are you also saying that you can't teach someone to trade 1-2-3 type patterns profitably? Or do you instruct your students differently than you would a computer (and then why so)?Quote from austinp:
1-2-3 type patterns of any descript have so many variables to unfold, it is impossible to define by code.
The same way you would instruct one of your students to manage them?Quote from austinp:
How do you instruct the computer to manage trades that chop once or twice before finally taking off for substantial gains in favor the third time?

I'm not trying to pick on you. I am genuinely interested what, in your experience, makes it difficult to code logic that I think you believe can be taught (correct me if I am wrong).

Getting it down to a computer algo is not looking like a real good way to go at this point, only for scalping, not for catching the big moves and capitalizing on them..
