FX CHAOS!

[willoneau]

Sorry i have been away back testing after realizing i was trading too short a time frame.

And the cursed Chaos delivers another flipping flop.

Now coupla smidgins long.

And finally Chaos bestows just a little bit of the love I'd been so longing for!

(Albeit still not nearly enough to square things off for this quarter.)

Now flipped to several smidgins short.

Now flipped to several smidgins short.

And Chaos struck again, this time whilst I was sleeping!
My trusty sms/email/online platform alert, proved to be most untrustworthy, when it didn't even bother to trigger (presumably consequent to the gap).

Was briefly flipped a teensy bit long, and subsequently flipped several smidgins (and then some - due to the chaotic derailment) short.

I did gain some actual ground, despite being asleep at the wheel. Just not quite as much ground, as might otherwise have occurred.

Am now hoping for just a little more Chaos, in order to realign actual positioning, so that it is returned to compliance with the intended methodology.

Stay tuned for more chaotic developments!

Actuality now realigned with methodology, even captured a wee bit of additional profit in the process, (so will need to discount that excess from end of quarter performance analysis.)

Account PNL achieved a new, albeit still somewhat meagre, quarterly high!

Who would ever have guessed that Chaos could be so forgiving?!

Now several smidgins short (trimmed out the "and then some" during realignment).

Anyhow, it is truly comforting to finally have the actuality......with the methodology.

Blessed Chaos, will your wonders never cease?!

Account PNL for this quarter, briefly flirted with a new high.

Now flipped to a few smidgins long.

Stay tuned for more chaotic developments!

Hope all is well with the Traders of Chaos.
I have been backtesting almost every night for the last few months.
Trying to develop a system on the daily timeframe for fx only ( ie no gold /oil etc)
making progress slowly . Using indicators only , no discretion. Will save the discretionary trading for XAU me thinks.
Slow steady work that is starting to show signs of promise.
Will catch up soon!
Hooroo

Interesting timing! Just this week I was teetering on dumping this quarterly deployment (due to my strategy,stubbornly, insisting I remain long throughout this eur/usd downtrend).

Anyhow, this pretty much sums up the situation:


And that's the way the chaos crumbles!
