This is the strategy (well, slightly modified) I’ve been using for the past 2 years on the H1 timeframe across various currency pairs. It’s not fully autonomous - in the end, it is me who decides whether to open a trade or not. My current win rate hovers around 80%, and the return percentage over these 2 years is over 100%.

@@omerfaruk1351 Nothing major, to be honest: • Bollinger Bands (BB) calculated over 20 periods. • The candle being engulfed can’t be a Doji or any other variation of a small/no body and long wicks type of candle. • I don’t trade when a signal occurs directly on a Bollinger Band after a nearly vertical move up or down, as this means the trend is strong and I would be trading against the short-term momentum. Price often tends to slow down after a while and move a bit closer to the middle of the BB channel. You can find many divergences there on the RSI, which, when paired with an engulfing bar, usually indicate a great opportunity. That’s mostly what I do. There’s also a bit of gut feeling now and then, but I can’t describe it. I believe it comes with experience. And no, I don't trade cryptos at all. Edit. I would like to clearly state that I am not some internet scammer, nor am I trying to portray myself as a genius trader. I am still not rich, I still do not live off trading, and I still make plenty of mistakes. I am continuously learning, and my trades are sometimes tragically off the mark.

does this work on crypto too?

When the trade count is low, the problem is that we can't fully understand the real winning percentage of a strategy. For example, in probability, when you toss a coin, it's 50% heads and 50% tails, but if you toss it 10 times, you might get 8 heads and 2 tails. However, if you try it infinitely many times, it will converge to 50% heads and 50% tails. To fully understand and test a strategy, especially if we are optimizing the parameters and picking the best one according to historical values, we should be careful about the sample size. In my opinion, 18 is not enough. We can find 500 pairs and find the best parameters for historical data, but as long as the trade count for a pair is small, the winning rate does not prove whether it is a reliable value.

That's a great point. I ran it with SPY and XLK daily data on a shorter period 2018 - 2024 both traded 11 times but the results did not duplicate the BMW data. Both ETFs did poorly and think it's because both ETFs had trending markets over the sample time period, this is best for mean reversion markets. Thanks enjoyed the video.

I think the key is mostly the two conditions of price action... one candle closing outside of the BB and the other surpassing it in the other direction and to the other side of the BB. I bet it works on multiple timeframes but is best on the H1. Just a hunch.

What would be helpful is a calculation of the buy and hold max drawdown so we can see how a strategy compares on a drawdown basis ie an 8% out performance vs B&H is great IF max drawdown is lower by 20%

Your videos inspired my to build my own trading bot. I created a oanda demo account and wrote some code and deployed it. The problem i currently have, is that i have to pay a lot of swap. (I did some research, as far as I understand its just overnight fees.) The swap is in my case really high, nearly 0.1% of my invested capital per day. When investing in stocks over a few months, the swap would eat all my profits. Especially on the daily timeframe. What can i do about that? (I am new to that subject, so it is possible that i missed something very obvious)

@CodeTradingCafe

9 күн бұрын

Hi, yes I suffered from swap at some point with Oanda, and sometimes swap can be positive meaning you earn on the opened trades! yes it's a small interest for some forex pairs and in one direction for example on USDCHF if you buy/long you get interest but if you short you pay interest... anyway to get rid of this check in your region if Oanda has other types of accounts that don't make you pay swap or overnight fees, if not check other brokers as well, my friend uses CFI in the MiddleEast region he can leave Forex trades opened for 3 month with no additional fees!

60% return from 2011 to 2024?

@CodeTradingCafe

7 күн бұрын

Yes but these strategies can be deployed on multiple assets at the same time so you can trade for instance 30 assets in parallel.

Only 18 trades and 66% return over such immense timeframe (13 years) is actually pretty bad. Notice that the dataframe has an open value of 59.2 in the first row and a close value of 101.386 in the last row. Buying the asset in the first day and selling in the last yields a return of 71.26% by doing absolutely nothing. The strategy is actually underperforming the simplest strategy, which is buying and holding.

@CodeTradingCafe

8 күн бұрын

Hi, thank you for sharing, I understand your point I do agree partially though. The buy and hold strategy works only on increasing assets, imagine I tried the same strategy on a different stock or a forex that went down so basically the buy and hold will be in the negative, I avoid taking it as a reference. I do agree though that the number of trades is low however I have read many professional traders books and they do have this kind of "selective" strategies too, the solution is to run the strategy on multiple assets at the same time.

14 сағат бұрын

@@CodeTradingCafe it isn't about actually deploying a buy-and-hold strategy, but to establish a baseline for comparison. The strategy in the video spans through more than a decade and it is easy to lose perspective. Taking 18 trades and having 66% return, while keeping the capital committed to run it, is really ridiculous. The point is: the performance evaluation invalidates the strategy completely.
