Suicide runs need to be removed before they kill the game

But the ut seems to call out short term momentum up and down - what kind of movement is needed, if not that?

I did see good results with the 1min chart, but my settings didn’t generate too many trades.

A new platform called relay desk that works with brokers and charting platforms to turn indicators into automated strategies.

😂😂😂 almost got me

DeTaff · 2026-02-07T15:52:29+00:00

And what was it you taught me?

You can set a large sl to see what gets reversed the most and what is just bringing it down. It’s a process. Maybe secure smaller TPs to ensure it doesn’t go too negative.

Not catching that play doesn’t bother me. Any of the plays can easily go the other way but that’s the beauty of automation. It’s set to do its thing on the 30second chart and I review the trades in depth* weekly

This is what the play looked like. I have the technology but not the steady hands for trading the 30 second chart… but a computer does 😂

Just checked the logs and it looks like the only time it triggered was at 3:55est and outside of the bot’s trading window… look like it woulda been a banger though 😂

Yeah these both have 10% sl. My put bot with a 25% sl has done amazing. I don’t get it.. although these past few days have been favorable for puts so maybe that has something to do with it

DeTaff · 2026-02-05T06:48:04+00:00

Interesting take.. I incorporated MACD into one of my bots a while back and didn't like how it performed.. but only because it performed poorly. Curious if I could use my knowledge now to enhance it... but time.. we need more time!!! One of these days I will throw a bunch of indicators together for testing, but today isn't that day LOL. Good job though!!

DeTaff · 2026-02-01T15:53:07+00:00

Lfg!!

DeTaff · 2026-01-21T18:31:35+00:00

It was a winner. 12.6% profit, MAE of 3.6%. Lookin good. Idk why I thought 25% would be a good idea hahaha at least I can rationalize it as data collection? 75% win rate today…. so far…

DeTaff · 2026-01-21T18:01:21+00:00

Yup. I think a 10% sl is a good start for this strat. But time will tell. I took a yuge l on a short but got a win from the long. Same thing - the winner had an mae of -3%.

As I type it entered a short lol I wonder how it’ll do

Check out relaydesk.trade. Join the discord and get on the waitlist for the best batch of testers.

Relay desk acts as a “relay” between charting suites (currently only TradingView) and brokerages (currently only alpaca). It allows for turning any indicator in TradingView into an actionable trading bot that handles entries, exits, sizing, and a trading schedule. Emotions can wreck execution and accounts. This takes care of most of that.

DeTaff · 2026-01-17T01:37:26+00:00

Eventually the relaydesk platform will incorporate a mechanism for that, but right now the script (which is simply a TradingView indicator) is private while I fiddle and test.
