  Hi!

  I recently listened to a “Better System Trader” podcast about Market Phases, where the person interviewed talked about 6 different market phases. I coded these quickly and thought I would share it with you. Feel free to add in any other ideas or code snippets you use to define market phases to improve your algos.

  To use this snippet, I add the “and $mp[x]” to my buy conditions and then optimize x between 1-6, to see if any market phases are bad for the particular system.
