Hi Michael, great to have you with us and we appreciate you sharing your feedback. We can see you completed your onboarding with Stonex.com on June 6th. That was 10 days ago, not a month. Here is exactly what happened and why. Gold hit an all-time record high of $5,542 on January 29, 2026. Less than five months later it had fallen more than 21%. That is not a dip. That is a structural market shift. When a market enters price territory it has never seen before, the historical data the algorithm was trained on becomes incomplete. The system is operating in an environment it was never built for. At that point you have two choices: force trades and hope for the best, or protect capital and do the work. We do not hope. Capital preservation is our first rule. Drawdown control is our first rule. Risk management is our first rule. Everything else comes after. So we stopped. We recalibrated Apollo, retrained the model, stress-tested the system, and rebuilt it for the current market environment. Then we made it bigger. Here is what the upgrade produced. Three liquid markets. A more diversified capital base. A cleaner equity curve. Bot performance up 37%. Drawdowns held under 10%. This is not a bot that was sitting idle. This is a system that was being rebuilt to be more calibrated, more diversified, and more dangerous in the second half. Apollo is up 20% for the year. Gold itself gave back more than 21% from its peak. We protected those gains, upgraded the system, and expanded into new markets. Most firms would have kept trading through the noise and hoped for the best. We stopped, upgraded, diversified, and reloaded. The second half starts now and Apollo is live across gold, ES, and NQ futures. If you want to talk through your account directly, we are ready. [email protected] or invest.gemalgo.com/support.
