Owl Bundle User Group (OBUG) Meeting 150 was built around a simple but powerful idea: markets move through regimes, and capital should only be deployed when the statistical odds justify it. This session wasn’t about predictions or hot takes. It was about how skilled traders decide when to engage, when to stand down, and how to size risk intelligently. OBUG trading studies are based on Dr. Ken Long’s trading process, with a strong emphasis on regime awareness, risk control, and capital discipline. To ensure rigor and transparency, all historical testing and analysis is conducted using EdgeRater, allowing us to evaluate long-horizon behavior, stress regimes, and portfolio-level interactions.
Why Most Trading Portfolios Break — and the Question We Study in OBUG
Most traders believe diversification means adding more strategies. Experienced traders eventually discover that this alone doesn’t work. You can have five profitable systems — and still suffer deep, confidence-breaking drawdowns if those systems fail at the same time. This is why, inside the Owl Bundle User Group (OBUG), we don’t start with signals or setups. We start with a harder question: When things go wrong, do my strategies fail together — or separately?
OBUG Year-End Meeting 2025:
As we move into 2026, OBUG will continue to deepen its research into market structure, regime behavior, and portfolio-level system design, building on Dr Ken Long’s methodology and our ongoing EdgeRater backtest studies. We invite you to join the Owl Bundle User Group, and be part of an exciting new year of focused study, collaboration, and disciplined market research. Enrollment link: HERE.

GLD at Full Throttle: How Long Can This Bull Run Last?
Short-Term Analysis of GLD
The recent weekly dojis are seen more clearly the daily chart. The 20-period SMA has gone sideways, and price has gone from ‘walking the band’ for two months to a pullback below the support of the 20-day SMA. Volatility has decreased as well as the Bollinger bands have narrowed.
GLD: Searching for Early Signals Before Gold’s 6% Drop
When GLD collapsed 6 percent on October 21 2025, it caught the financial media by surprise.

Energy Sector at a Crossroads: Is XLE Ready to Break Out?
Long-Term Analysis of XLE
A dynamic, three-year bull move from 2020 to 2023 has been consolidating for the past two years. Price has formed what looks like a rectangle pattern as it digests the last up leg.
A difficult pattern to forecast, but we go with the trend. Price found support in April of this year at the bottom edge of the rectangle pattern at 74.79, and has since printed 4 up bars with higher highs and lows, showing bullishness
Unleashing the "Godzilla" Strategy: A Critical State Filter to Find the Movers
At AbleWayTech.com, we’re exploring robust trading methodologies to help our community understand market dynamics. One standout method we’ve studied in our Owl Bundle User Group (OBUG) is the Godzilla strategy, based on Dr. Ken Long’s techniques. The EdgeRater tool allows us to scan and backtest the Godzilla strategy. The motivation behind Godzilla is simple: find the movers—symbols most likely to make sharp, outsized moves. While most stocks churn quietly, Godzilla is designed to isolate those rare moments of imbalance when institutions are forced to act, creating powerful short-term opportunities.

Intraday Trading Tips: Using Daily Lows to Secure Your Stops
Having to accept our stops being hit is a part of trading. It’s true. But let’s do our best to protect those stops so they don’t get hit as often. In this article, I’d like to explore this concept of protecting our stops with a support level that I think has a lot of benefits.Specifically for intraday, the low of yesterday’s session can be a great stop protector.
