yamantaka Posted September 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 I'm going to continue to trade buddy in SIM this week with a 1 minute chart in ES, CL, TF, NG, ZW, and ZS. I'm looking to select 2 markets for cash trading next week if this one looks "typical" of the past month's action. What impresses me is volatility recently hasn't been extreme and yet Buddy is holding it own. Of course, with a daily loss of $600 and profit of $900, targets can get hit quickly. If this proves to be consistently profitable, it won't be the first time a developer's strategy was improved by an outside beta tester, yours truly in particular. Time will tell and I'll post my findings on a daily basis. I expect the worst and hope for the best. Reminder, Buddy closes trading at 12:00 EST. tellMe, ⭐ Meow, energetic and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yamantaka Posted September 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 A good recovery day for Buddy. I'm dropping ZS. It isn't suitable for the strategy.

yamantaka Posted September 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 yamantaka, how many trades do you take for each instrument? Each trade is with 2 contracts. Daily average is 3 trades. mastertrader7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamantaka Posted September 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) http://www.bollingerbuddy.com/trades.php As I look at this performance page, I scratch my head and smile. Although many, if not most of these trades call for doubling and tripling down--which is out of reach for the typical retail trader--why doesn't the developer beg, borrow and steal money so he can trade in a cash account? I'm sure he could find a financial backer. Who wouldn't be interested in taking a cut of those juicy YTD profits (even after deducting for commissions)? So I ask you all, what's wrong with this picture? Edited September 17, 2014 by yamantaka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yamantaka Posted September 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 I found a bug in the software. If in a trade, the system doesn't close it at the StopTime, which is what I prefer in my strategies. Instead, it waits until a stop or target is reached. More than likely, I will not be trading TF when going with real money. http://i62.tinypic.com/34e6jkg.jpg energetic, tellMe and newbie0101 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try to change the hours and see if it helps. newbie0101 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yamantaka Posted September 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Buddy wraps up the week on a positive note. I'm going Cash next week in ES only.
