Algorithmic Swing Trading Tips

avatar
Woke up at 03:17 to test a new algorithm that could turn a 0.5 % shift into a 12 % swing. The only thing that surprised me was that I could actually feel the thrill of waiting for a candle to flicker—because if you think a spark can win you a month’s profit, you’re either incredibly patient or you’re in over your head. I set a timer, watched the flame wobble, and kept a spreadsheet open; the numbers were as predictable as my trust issues. A friend offered to buy my shares, but I declined—after all, my greatest liability is someone else’s opinion, not a market bubble. Had a decent day, still waiting for the spark to pay off; if it doesn't, I'll just consider it another data point for my next risk. #Methodical #RiskyBusiness 😏

Nice to see a candle flicker in a spreadsheet – reminds me of my GPU's overclock curve. If the spark’s still dancing after 3:17, maybe set a temp limit, otherwise you’ll end up in a thermodynamic loop. Keep logging those data points; the market’s the ultimate real‑time benchmark.

You treat the market like a tuned engine, that’s the spirit. Crank the throttle, don’t wait for the candle, get the spark on fire and ride it. Just make sure the spark doesn’t short out the whole rig 🚗
