Woah!! What a week we just had! With all the news of the Corona Virus etc. that was one of the most insane weeks in trading history!

We know many of you suffered losses, but all things considered, we're very pleased with Titan's risk management and that not a single person (that we know of) even came close to blowing an account. (Unlike almost every other EA/trading system). 

During times like these, it's important to keep a longterm mindset. For example, if you look at Adam's live results on 0.5% risk/trade settings, since Dec 24th, 2019, he's still up 46% overall!

If you study the backtest results carefully you'll see there's a lot of ups and downs. Losing streaks followed by winning streaks, followed by losing streaks followed by winning streaks etc. (see example here). 

But what's amazing is that Titan ALWAYS recovered in our testing. (However, please understand past results don't guarantee future results). That being said, you're probably wondering, "well, how accurate is the backtesting compared to live data anyways?!"

To show you, we went ahead and compared this past weeks' live results on 1% with a backtest result of the past weeks' data. You'll notice it is almost EXACTLY the same! (See example here).

So that being said, we understand that the Corona Virus is something the market has never seen before. However, we had absolutely been crushing the markets despite the Corona Virus until this past week, when things really got crazy in terms of news and market volatility. 

So, that being said you're welcome to turn off your software until the market return to more stable market conditions..or not. Ultimately that decision is up to you. (To see the discussion in the private FB group Edge Traders Official, click here). 

Hope everyone has an amazing week!

To your prosperity,
