Well that was close. Note the red line is the stop loss order.

BREAKING: Trump questioned on the arrival of Afrikaner refugees in the U.S. calls it what the media won’t. “It’s a genocide. What’s happening to them in South Africa is horrible, and nobody wants to talk about it.

[Dan Roodt @danroodt]

Jordan Peterson on "Kill the Boer": "The majority of Russians weren't Bolsheviks, a tiny percentage, 3 to 5 percent maybe... You don't need that many organised psychopaths to wreak bloody, blue murder, that's for sure."

I've never seen a better vid to explain EXACTLY how 'business' is done in Africa. South Africa to a T!

@elonmusk There are more racial laws (targeting white people) today than there were racial laws under apartheid South Africa.

Well that’s not fun.

BREAKING: The order requires ALL these agencies to submit their regulations to Trump budget chief Russ Vought, who helped write the Project 2025 blueprint 👀

Elections have to matter. If these agencies aren't responsible to the elected branches and voters, we aren't free.

A few people may have noticed that I resisted an enthusiastic endorsement of Donald Trump during the election.

But now, I’m amazed by the Trump cabinet (many of whom I would have picked).

I love his message to the Ukrainian warmongers, and along with his DOGE initiative shows I was wrong to withhold my endorsement.

So today, admittedly a little tardy, I give Donald Trump my enthusiastic endorsement!

(Too little too late some will say, but, you know, it is sincere, there is that.)

Don’t expect this endorsement to be fawning.

I still think tariffs are a terrible idea, but Dios Mio, what courage, what tenacity.

Go @realDonaldTrump Go!

The variance you observe is also observed by everybody, which make them cautious.
This makes markets inefficient.

18 year old Afrikaner girl Cherize was on campus when she received the message, her Grandma, Grandpa, Mother and Father were killed in a brutal farm attack.

Look at her eyes. Everyone she loved ripped away for ever.

In June 2023 South Africa proposed a law that farms would get water based upon a farmer's race. Human rights bodies said nothing.

Happy with this month’s performance.

@chris_sunk Have you considered diversifying into multi timeframe strategies. Example some strategies running 5min timeframe, some on 8min, some on 10min? The further out you go the more volume per candle so more people can trade the same strategy.

@rugby_ap -2) from club rugby to international rugby. There are so many archs. They can even include school rugby, varsity rugby and track players trying to make their national squads.

[Andries Venter @_Catmandu_]

@rugby_ap -1)They needed to include the formally tri-nations now “the rugby championship” or they needed to follow the world cup. The need to follow rugby has a whole, different national cups like the currie cup in SA the URC, the rugby premiership, top 14 and follow the players …

@rjpjr12 I get tempted many times to build custom systems and parameters for each market because the backtests look so good but have staved it off so far.

[Andries Venter @_Catmandu_]

@SRxTrades How do you determine entry size?

[Andries Venter @_Catmandu_]

@GfI_Himmelreich Thanks for sharing. I like your approach.

Another fun way to test slippage with a variable approach is using volatility. Taking a multiple of ATR say 0.1-0.3 and adding that to hypothetical execution.
