Looks like the forum has least activity or low activity (like old redfin forum)!

It is sad to note that forum has least activity or low activity. Except few users, all are gone. After I left, even the controversay is gone (as no one is there to fight!!! LOL !)

If it goes like this, soon it may be closed. Before I go further, I accept my defeat to WQJ (45 M stocks) and Hanera (appx 10M-12M stocks) that I can not beat your financial record - in next 10-15 years - beyond which I can not count my own life (getting old) ! Kudos to you.

Special Thanks to forum owner , Manch, for keeping the fraternity so far.

However, I have not changed so much, still trading my own way (with the so called crystall ball). Because of this forum’s challenge, I wrote my crystal system - for the last 8 years - day and night - and made it working nicely.

In WQJ points of view that I need to be correct on two times, both buy side and sell side. It took me so many years to make a perfect algorithm that spots both sides (buy and sell).

Now, I have handsfree program that trades, on daily basis, and add money to my accounts. The system daily monitors the market and analyzes 525 stocks and trades ETFs (mainly TQQQ, SOXL etc) and options (spy only now) when it spots turning points.

Here are the logs it sends to mobile phone whenever it trades (no issue for taxes as it is in Roth).

Last two years, continuous growth made my account to near 1M (very tiny - still way below WQJ and Hanera) in stocks. image

Of all the years, from 2017 to till date, I escaped from all major drawdowns using my algorithm as it spots ahead and I stay away. Above all, I clearly see the bottom when it happens and able to take advantage of it.

Thank you all, I am gone once for all as we may not meet or even write anymore (no activity here).

Good Luck and Good Bye to you all, esp younger community members.

@manch

My crystal system is running in external dedicated hosting with 52 cores, 256 GB RAM and 2 TB NVMe SSD, running every 5 minutes during market hours. It takes 10 indexes and 515 stocks, generates a reports.

It can find out day trading signals and long term signals (mainly for pull backs, correction, recessions).

In short, I use day trading signals on every 5 minutes basis, it normally buys 1 to 3 times a day as long as it find buy/sell triggers. This is mainly for TQQQ and SOXL and well proven for aorund one year.

However, I limit only one per day for options, this is still in pilot stage, maximum 2 spy calls, implemented this year, it may take another six months to get more confidence.

@druid

My trading went UPs and Downs between 2020 to 2024, almost no gain no loss flat performance, but started in Jan 2025 on bullish side (including Jan 2025-Apy 2025 excaped nicely) and many Roth accounts are involved. The CAGR ranges 25% to 50%.

The reason for focusing index or index related ETFs, easy to manage and 3x are wild volatility, but my Roth accounts are small, and I want to use this account for my algorithmic trading as there is no tax libility.

I do not own any individual stocks, not even 1 share, but my system monitors 515 stocks for statistical data analysis purpose.

Anyway, I have to go long way in this work and I won’t stop. If I make a big break through - after few years - will post here again.

Good Luck to you all.

For options, did you consider delta neutral position to play the collapse of IV? IV always expand towards a news event e.g. earnings, and collapse after the news.

First, wallstreet knows the news ahead and work ahead than all retailers. By that time news comes to public, all are priced in, it is too late. My system does not account any news or earnings call, but it applies the mathematical and statistical logic I developed and find the possible (85% or above reliability) bottom or top. When it hits the trigger, it waits for 5 minute confirmation and then triggers trade.

For options, this is in pilot stage, lot of improvements are required. I need to see six/twleve more months to get confidence. However, options are not based on greeks. My system finds peaks of SPX/NDX, wait for 5 minute confirmation and then caclulate plus or minus 5 point of SPY current close and find the best ITM option and trades it. Like yesterday, spy was 693 range, it can pick up 695 or 690, looks like it picked 690.

This may be wrong or risky or good, I do not know now, but will be able to monitor for sometime.When it sells, it checks sale price > purchase price. Options are high risk, I may not be convinced unless I see one big drawdown cycle. No auto stop loss applied and stop loss are handled by me manually (so far I did not do any stoploss on TQQQ, SOXL or options).

I have emergency kill switch, it can be turned on to stop all auto trading, but system will continue to monitor. It is everything based on SPX/NDX,better reliability, and no individual stocks or options are traded for simplicity.
