With (>
) and (<
) You're close. Not necessarily one instruction, but close to what you have.
With (@) you're wrong. I'll post another example in a second.
With (X) you've got it right, the program just halts.
([X]) has no output and continuously loops, but...

×([X])(X) has no output and stops.

×([X])(#)(X) has an output of 88 and stops.

×({X})(#)(X) has an output of X and stops.
And here's two more continuous loops, but this one keeps spitting out 1 and 2:
(>
)([<
v])(#)([v])(@)
But this one has no output:
(v)
(^)

×<, >, v, and ^ all have different meanings depending on whether they're inside [] or () or {}.
