  "content": "A solid month for the system, though not perfect. The effects of BOJ-Fed interventions to support the yen continued to distort the FX side of the algorithm. The demo strategy was consistently ~3 days too early on buys and the same too late on shorts through the beginning of September, all on hybrid FX-physics points that underperformed pure-physics. Still, the demo strategy was profitable through September, especially catching the mid-month long, if early. **Ahead**: As of writing, the strategy’s currently short on (once again) a FX-hybrid signal, but likely to confirm the **Sep 21** Buy and reenter long. More Buy signals **Sep 25** and **Sep 26** with Volatility **Sep 27** into a final Buy **Sep 28** - that Volatility might give a last-chance entry for sidelined bulls. Sell **Oct 2** coincides with that day’s jobs/earning report, so I think a hot jobs print that raises the odds of another FOMC hike could be an early entry for the stronger **Oct 4** Sell.  The next Buys are **Oct 9** and **Oct 10** - probably prefer the 9th. Volatility on **Oct 12** looks like a good spot to size down the long ahead of the usual OPEX volatility on **Oct 16**, and a Sell **Oct 18** to finish out our 4-week forecast window. **Sunwave**: The experimental seasonal-momentum indicator continues to perform well, picking Sep 17 as the local bottom which was absolutely correct. It now implies mostly positive momentum, accelerating into November. Let’s see! **Updates**: All development effort is going into Strategy 2.0, which will likely get a new, less generic name as it gets more responsibility and capability. Now it has sensitivity to Moonwave amplitude and existing price momentum. Once the weights are good, the next target will be **NASDAQ**.",
