An abnormal September increase in US Imports has widened the monthly trade deficit to the third largest level on record at $145.5 Billion. Imports are up by 25.4% through the first three-quarters of this year, performance that is unprecedented in modern history and well ahead of the 7.5% rise that is average for this timeframe. So much for tariffs balancing trade. $STUDY $MACRO #Economy #Trade #Tariffs

$STUDY CycleTrade Quant Framework I am a quantitative trader, meaning I focus on price, volatility, trend persistence, and risk-adjusted returns rather than qualitative predictions, narratives, opinions, or emotion. At the core of CycleTrade Strategies are two volatility envelopes: V1 (Volatility Envelope 1) Built around a short-term EMA Upper and lower bands are set at either 1 ATR or 2 ATR Used as the Entry Engine V2 (Volatility Envelope 2) Built around a long-term EMA Lower band is set at either 2 ATR or 4 ATR Used as the Exit Engine The longer EMA is five times the length of the shorter This creates four primary strategy combinations: 1×V1 + 2×V2 Fast Entry / Moderate Exit Earliest participation Quicker trend capture Moderate trend tolerance Frequently performs well on broad-market ETFs and growth stocks 1×V1 + 4×V2 Fast Entry / Deep Exit Earliest participation Maximum trend persistence Designed to stay with major moves Often excels when premature exits are costly 2×V1 + 2×V2 Selective Entry / Moderate Exit Requires stronger confirmation before entry More conservative participation Often reduces drawdown Frequently performs well in volatile growth and crypto markets 2×V1 + 4×V2 Selective Entry / Deep Exit Highest entry confirmation Deepest trend tolerance Filters many signals Favours patience over activity How I Evaluate Results I primarily evaluate strategies using: RDR (Reward-to-Drawdown Ratio) RDR = PnL ÷ Drawdown Secondary considerations include: Win Rate Trade Count Strategy Robustness Consistency across multiple asset classes CycleTrade Philosophy - Present price is truth Narrative may explain the past Prediction attempts to explain the future CycleTrade seeks only to identify, participate in, and remain with profitable trends while controlling risk. I am less interested in being right than in discovering what is true through testing. The knowing proposes. The data disposes. The market gets the final vote.

$STUDY Key Differences Between 'Quantitative and 'Qualitative Traders Quantitative traders use tested rules, data, and repeatable systems to make decisions — entries and exits driven by structure, not emotion. Qualitative traders rely on opinions, headlines, sentiment, and interpretation. One approach is measurable, the other is narrative. And if we’re being honest, most people on Stocktwits fall into the qualitative camp.

US New Home Sales are eerily unchanged through the first three quarters of the year, highlighting weakness in the housing market that is akin to periods of economic recession. The median price of new homes sold is showing the second largest drawdown three-quarters of the way through the year in the past three decades. Housing is certainly sending a warning sign pertaining to the health of the economy. $STUDY $MACRO $ITB #Economy #Housing
