Inverse Example, Devastating Results With AMD, and How To Avoid It

The technology behind Cycles-Trader is Neural-Networks.

One of the natural phenomena of neural networks solutions is the Inverse, in which a projection line may be in inverse direction, showing up instead of down.

Although this is a rare case in Cycles-Trader solution as we already took measures to rectify this issue as much as possible, it can appear in less than 10% of the cases, and have unpleasant results when it happens.

The example ahead is one of these rare cases, happened recently with AMD stock, which was not caught on time, and how we can still avoid it.

AMD Example

Starting with the forecast from May 18 

 - the annual cycle (Green), showing uptrend in the upcoming months

 - the monthly (Blue) and bi-weekly cycles show uptrend until end of July and then strong downtrend.

The following forecast is from August 5

An strong uptrend appeared where a downtrend was expected  

The following forecast is from August 5 but with INVERSE view.

As clearly visible from the graph, this is the right direction.

The following forecast is from May 18 , this time with INVERSE view.

As clearly visible from the graph, this is the right direction.

Conclusions:

INVERSE cases may happen.

Although they rarely happen, in our experience they happen less than 10% of the cases, the results may be unpleasant.

How to avoid it:

1. Always use risk management tools such as Stop-Loss

2. When price starts to go strongly against the projection line, this is the time to stop and recalculate

3. Even with inverse direction of the projection line , the timing may still be accurate

Happy trading
