Another day, another update for the Happy Hunter Trading System! So, how did the two Variants fare in the most recent hunt?
Price action on May 17 was very choppy and some of the hourly candles were quite big to boot. And as a natural consequence, the system generated more losing trades than winning trades.
Fortunately, the system’s rules to move SL to RSL helped to limit the damage. And so the Fixed TP Variant’s losses for the month only slightly deepened from -2.00% to -2.32%.
The rules for reducing risk and a lucky trade that was able to ride the downswing on May 18 (trade # 91), meanwhile, allowed the Trailing Variant to only suffer a small scratch as well, with the Variant’s losses for the month only slightly worsening from -1.27% to -1.48%.
Anyhow, you can check out the details by clicking on the relevant jump links below.

Also, if you’re wondering what the numbers on the charts are about, they refer to the trade #, based on the chronological order when the signal was generated, not necessarily when the trade was executed.
Oh, also note that you can find the details of each trade in the tables below the chart. If the table is too small to read, just remember that you can click on it to enlarge it.
