“Found this old pirate’s trading journal—turns out he wasn’t hunting gold… he was hunting breakouts.” 🏴☠️📈
I spent time converting this pirate’s rules into an algo using Nubra APIs.
The strategy was simple, ruthless, and emotionless:
• Scan sectors that move the most in the first 5 minutes
• Focus only on the strongest sector
• Run an Opening Range Breakout on stocks from that sector
• Break above → go long
• Break below → go short
• Stay in the trade till take profit or stop loss
• No chasing. No second guesses. No emotions.
Old pirate rules.
Modern algos.
