I have been monitoring this site for some time now, more than a few months. It generates some rather interesting signals on CL, ES, YM, and FESX...

Algo Futures

what I like about it the most, is that it gives its signals with entry management ... a good example to learn from in terms of trade entry guideliness..

Hi Sysot1t,

Am glad that you like the WOW Indices and our signals.

We have some more trade management signals that we are working to surface to the site...they are pretty cool - and will remain free.

Please feel free to ping me any time with comments\questions...

All the best,
Carl from Algo Futures

I received an PM from Ganymed but was unable to respond as I am a new member.

Hi Ganymed,

Apologies...we maxed out the server and our hosting company has shut us down.

We are in the process of migrating the site to a different hosting company with a more robust infrastructure.

We hope to be back online tomorrow.

Thanks,
Carl

I noticed you were down today... you might have already found a solution, but also look at www.1and1.com ... they are never down and they offer unlim bandwidth.. I've had them for over 8 years now.. I used to have my own colo at L3, but I really have no need for that anymore.. so 1and1 was the best choice after researching, and still is a great value.

Hi Sysot1t,

We went with SiteCloud....we'll see how well they perform.

The site is back up but loading the pages seem a little slow...we are looking into this.

Thanks for the reco.

All the best,
Carl

Hi Sysot1t,

BTW - The SiteCloud service was terrible so we switched out VPS to Linode...and they have been very good.

glad to hear, LiNode looks cool... I hope it turns out a lot better for you..

btw, is there a way to write the trades into an xml file and publishing those for auto capture? I was trying to back test WOW the other day and I had to do it manually, but the issue was I could not get enough historical to make it statistically significant... I am mainly interested on testing the entry rules..

Hi Sysot1t,

I can put something together for ya.

Is there a particular market that you are focussed on?

This may take a few days.

The entries that we surface on the site are all reversals. We also have some trend entering algos that we are working to publish.

We are stringing these trend entering algos on our CME co-location server and the Linode VPS as we speak...which means that I will probably flub something up and the site will be kaflewy for the next few days - so I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Feel free to IM me and we can swap e-mail addresses.

All the best,
Carl

We have taken a couple of stabs at building what we call a “Weather Vane”, which is simply a set of algos that do their best to determine by 9:45 EST what kind of trading market we will have today.

I know you are working on the algo and that it will become public beta on Q3... but I wanted to see if you could provide some details behind the idea...

today, I basically use Break Outs across multiple markets(Asia, EU, and local) and research from GRI to determine what I believe to be market direction in the morning... I cant really avoid chop, and as such I tend to limit the trade lenghts in an effort to avoid it, so during the trend days I miss the big runs at times and I play conservative. I am very much curious by your post and your effort. hopefully you are willing to share some insight.
