Which market condition is the hardest for your EA to handle?

[Alex Holloway]

The answer is "Sideways markets"

That's where most EAs get exposed badly

In trending markets almost every bot looks like a genius. But when price starts chopping around with fake breakouts and no real direction, that’s when you see which EA actually has solid logic and which one is just overfit garbage.

High volatility and news can be dangerous too, but sideways markets slowly kill weak systems over time.
