We consider a simple estimator of the density mode using the frequency polygon estimate. We investigate strong consistency of the estimator for strong mixing sequence of real variables under mild assumptions. We study the almost sure rate of convergence and we show that the estimator can achieve optimal almost sure rates of convergence for appropriate choices of the bin widths. The asymptotic normality of the simple estimator is given and a simulation study is performed. Our asymptotic results are obtained without any differentiability condition assumed on the density around the mode.
