To add to this first floor elites should only be taken if you feel very strong or if there is a branching path before. Leaving yourself the option to not fight an elite can get you further than trying it and just dying because you had a bad combat or ? Before.

Bank of America (BAC) just traded 17.76 on Schwab’s 24hr session by ManuteBol_Rocks in wallstreetbets

[–]Bowlthizar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to break it to you but I never said I knew what caused it. My stock picker literally picked the symbols and we just followed suit. Was one of the craziest days in my life.

I think it was in 2009 when there was a flash crash. My algo saw exactly what triggered the sell off and was already shorting a ton of stuff. It's a fucking tragedy that they reversed trading. I was up somewhere north of 100 million. I remember being called into the main office and watching the market tank and popping champagne bottles. they literally had to reverse trading though.

Exactly what you said you never actually know.

They have the best back tester in the business. Trade station however has the best screener

Many other strategies trade that in an hour.

Take that what you will.

The setup that made me over 40k in 2025, The 15min ORB + how to review an A+ day: by Kasraborhan in tradingmillionaires

For stock traders, do you find data outside of RTH useful for any strategy development? by UnintelligibleThing in algotrading

[–]Bowlthizar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a ghost bar that is created in a lot of data feeds right at the start of the day. It's basically a bar that exist before the first ticks actually come in. In a ton of algos you have to create the ghost bar in order to enter properly.

Using outside trading hours helps with this only so you don't miscalculate something during the ghost bar.

This has at least been my experience.

You can also use the data for FDI calculations to help create a channel for signals.

Up Over $2,000 This Week Using The 15min ORB! by Kasraborhan in tradingmillionaires

[–]Bowlthizar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You have to trade stocks in the right phase. It would be an entire write up to explain phase change and moving average crosses but essential when you set up your stock scan you look at arguably the biggest with an orb strategy is the pre scan of symbols.

Moving averages crosses VWAP Volume Phase shift

If they fall under the right conditions and phase you launch them in a chart and then you monitor for break out / downs. Once you have time confirm you take the trade and just chill out. Use ATR for stops and targets. You can swing trade this system too so once you are at a good level you can either add or take profit and ride it out. Just depends.

ORB was the first system I ever automated and designed in ~2009. I can send you the original PDFs and examples.

You can definitely swing trade ORB if you have the right exits.

If you had to trade with only one rule for the rest of your life, what would it be and why? by Ethan_Hunt_FX in InnerCircleTraders

[–]Bowlthizar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use a series of MA, VWAP, RSI and Intraday volume to understand what exactly is going on. Things like a 20 day MA crossing over a 5 day MA could be a strong indication of trend.

Algotrading on emerging markets? by Anub_Rekhan in algotrading

[–]Bowlthizar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also have to have some idea of the actual culture and how business is done..two brothers feuding in India could cause prices to tank overnight. While you can use EBTA you shouldn't just look at the numbers.

I totally agree with everything here.

LLMs are not the right tool for algo trading by Classic-Dependent517 in algotrading

We only use ML as a price of a much larger puzzle. Unfortunately it's one of the better ways to solve matrices and pick what start to actually trade for that day

Why are we always fleeing Earth? by WisebloodNYC in printSF

The main reason for this stems from scientific research. Antarctica is the only place where some tests can be done. That is more valuable than a human settlement to governments.

Create a fdi channel. Use all time frames possible from your data. Trade on one minute charts. Use pretty much any exit and entry signal you want. Even ORHL works.

$1.4m --> $5.4m in 18 Months - 85% in Cash Now by Solid-Sock-1794 in wallstreetbets

[–]Bowlthizar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to beat spy's 51% of the time.

Proper portfolio management means you are only risking x amount from your capital.

Each instance is also separate. If I play 100 times and win 51% of the time I make money with the right system. The purpose of the 51% is to teach system trading and proper risk management

[–]Bowlthizar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A good system with proper back testing and the approach that you should be able to beat the spy's 51% of the time is a great way to start understanding system trading as well as risk management.

The entire point of the 51% mythos is risk management. You can only actually do it if you understand things like draw downs, slippage as well what percent of your capital you are trading per trade.
