APRIL trading.

Ok. We broke above 33k level to add 1 unit and as soon as we did that, strings of stops has been hit. Very near at point of action to reduce a contract. I do not know what is going to happen. But at least I know what to do when account hits a certain level.

Very curious to see two things. 1. system survival for a long time. perhaps a decade or two. 2. Will it beat SP500's return over those two decades? If system can not beat the market, there is no sense of continuing to trade with it. But only time will tell.

*A happy non smoker for 5 months. Working out in the morning and did not miss any day in April. Continue to training for front lever 2-3 times in the morning.

That's it. Stay healthy and be careful out there.

@kanepa

Congrats on making the 5 month mark.

All righty then. 28k touched. Have to reduce contracts to 4 from 5. Next points of action.

Above 36k, add 1 contract.
Below 23k, reduce 1 contract.

1) what is the longest loss streak you have had so far? Is it 5?

2) how many times have you seen in real trading the longest loss streak?

3) what is the longest loss streak in backtesting?

4) how many times have you seen this longest streak in backtesting?

1) 8
2) 8
3) 10

Now I am answering from memories from analyzing the system. If I am wrong, o will let you know but I am positive above answers are correct.

Oh yeah! system turning to red! Third month with net loss. We are still up from last year but erased all the gains from 2021 and then moved into negative territory for 2021.

Two possible reason for this down move.

1.This is normal distribution. Just heavy on losing side for past three month. That is all. According to back test, there were 5 and 4 straight months where system lost money. It only happened once(2015 and 2018).

2.This is the end of the system's profit run.

Does it matter which one of reason being correct? Better question would be "Do I even know which one is correct?" Answer is "I do not know." I will only know when future becomes past. And when it is happening, I will continue to react as planned.


Points of action.

Above 36k, add 1 contract.
Below 23k, reduce 1 contract.


6 Month. Happy Non Smoker!!!! I really felt joy of being non smoker this month.

Looking forward to 2 days off on 4th and 5th. And super excited to get my wife a birthday gift. Saving that gift money for her was one of this year's to do list. Happy I was able to save up for the whole amount.

-work out
Hurt my back. Weighted vest and picking up 100LB barbell did it. 3 weeks of no morning work outs and did workouts that do not use back. Finally, feels good and resuming regular workout schedule next week. One of this years goal was to doing bicep curl with 100lb. Not clean form as I wanted but was able to curl 3 times. And gotten hurt because of it. well..I will consider that goal has been achieved and will not be challenging certain weight to be lifted. It was more of ego than being healthy.

-smoking.
7month of being happy non smoker!
