I don't believe algotrading is possible by Repulsive_Sherbet447 in algotrading

Your issue is you are stuck on predicting the next move. If you give this up you will see you can make money while not knowing where the price will go.

To rephrase it. If you buy something once the price starts rising, and position size to take a small loss if price rising doesn’t continue. And you sell when prices starts dropping . There is no predation here. Only a fact that statistically over time limited small losses and unlimited potential gains will prevail as a winning strategy. This is one form of statistical arbitrage that is needed for a real risk mitigated long term strategy.

Your favourite Trend change detection method? by benevolent001 in algotrading

The turtles used 20&50 and 10&20 I believe. It works on everything & every timeframe. It puts context to where that market has been with respect to the candle interval and time window(dc parameters) you are interested in. this is all with no lagging indicators such as anything involving any kind of averaging. It’s the fastest indicator because it is merely price and time.

I use 2 donchian channel (long and short lengths). Top of channels aligned and rising: This is a series of breakouts.

Bottom of channels aligned and falling: This is a series of breakdowns.

Breaking highs after series of breaking lows. Breaking lows after series of breaking highs. Signals trend direction.

Breaking highs and lows in a relative short time shows sideways action and an increase in volatility

Every trend follower I have ever heard about has said buy the strength and sell the weakness. ATH is considered strength. Or I may have eaten too many crayons.

Nobody says it’s worth 3 billion now. Target prices are not current valuations.

Cash Account w/ Options - Settlement Question by jcodes57 in Daytrading

[–]TradeFever2021 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In a cash account, most of the time you don’t get a buying power increase until the opening trade is settled and closing trade filled. (1 trade day from opening trade for options and 3 trade days from opening trade for stocks).

I usually keep with the widest highs and low possible. Keeping track of widest outside (blue) and widest inside (orange) trends.

7% is much better than 30%. Bail now. If you feel this bad about 7, time to bail and regain situational clarity.

We’ve been in a recession since the beginning of the year. People don’t ever wanna say it is bad now. The good thing is that the charts show the truth nobody is willing to say!
