Yellen speaks today at the Boston fed confetence at 12:00, when in profit it may be an idea to take some off the table.

my today s trade:
DEBIT 1 + VIX FUT 20161116 - VIX FUT 20161019 0.47 SMART(USD)
BOT 1 VIX, 20161116, Futures, SMART, USD 17.44 SMART(USD) 01:08:03
SLD 1 VIX, 20161019, Futures, SMART, USD 16.97 SMART(USD) 01:08:03

I keep alternating trades between:
1. VIX futures spreads F1-F2
2. Inverse trade on e mini ES futures
3. Inverse trade on e mini ES options spreads

I"ll post the closed trades in batches of 10.

PS Also, whether Yellen speaks or not, I stick with the system signals , otherwise the stats will not reflect anymore the value of the system, IMO.

You do have a point there. On the other hand few will hold it against him when a trader has a backtested system but avoids stocks where earnings are due shortly. We are trading volatility here and although yesterday turned out to be a non event, if anyone is libal to ignite a volatility spike it's the fed chair.

Question for Kevin:
I was looking at the section 2, page 1 , equity curve 1999-2009 : mid 2001 to mid 2003 and 2008-2009, the equity curve, goes nowhere : do you think one would be able to follow religiously the system for 2 years with no palpable profit? I , probably , would bail out , in real time; what about you, guys?
Do you think this system should have a filter for high VOL / BEAR markets and be OUT of it during those periods?
I've seen some previous filters of yours ( 4 horsemen,etc) for negative markets. Maybe incorporating them might improve the performance and making it more realistic to follow?
Better being in cash or following another system , better adapted to bear markets ?

Also, if you 'd be able to zoom in the stats during those periods, might help to have a better idea about winners/ losers etc?

Thanks for your input.

For those times almost no profit crushed the market - this is designed to simply test the system with challenging out-of-sample data to make sure it does okay. I am not trying to further optimize but rather just make sure it is not already overfit to the five year time frame over which it was developed.

Trade the system. Be mechanical. That is an edge.
