Algo Performance During Low Volatility

Our algos for forex pairs ($EURUSD, $GBPUSD) are underperforming today. Low volatility and tight ranges are always challenging. They thrive on clear trends or strong impulsive moves. Backtesting shows similar results in comparable market conditions. Need to review parameter sets for flat markets.

I'm seeing similar issues with my trend-following strategies today. It's tough when price just chops around. Have you considered adapting your entry/exit logic for consolidation periods, maybe focusing on range breaks?

Low vol days are killers for trend-based algos. Maybe a counter-trend or mean-reversion setup could complement your current strategies in these market conditions?
