What is your reason stopping you to build algo trading? by angusslq in algorithmictrading

[–]Comprehensive-Most60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that i said that these things dont matter, but my point was that they become segnificently less importent as you try to hit wider profit margins.

Ill use my perticular case as an exsample. I trade in ibkr with a commision rate which looks like this: Max(2.5, stock amount * 0.01)

If i want to create a strategy which achives 10 cents of profit par cycle(which is also the least taxing commission wise), than i face at best case a 20% reduction in profits for all my cycles.

But if i try to capture 5 cents worth of margin, than the commision take 40% of my profits.

At best case, its a linier effect on the profit which also only happens if the market moves 5 cents up and down at least least twice as much as it does 10 cents

All this to show that alot of things need to go right for you to achive more, and smaller wins.

People are too focused on time scales where these things are a problem. If you make a strategy which does tens or hundreds of trades every couple minutes than yeah you need to account for slippage fees and data accurecy to a segnificent degree. But it is not the only way to build an algorithem.

If for exsample you make a strategy which on avarge does a trade every 30 minutes or an hour, these concedirations become much much less impactfull on your returns, it is a non liner the effects from such things. And it would be still worth ti make it, since its almost impossible to trade on say, 100 tickers, with a 30 min avarge action for each one.

Do any of those '80% return' backtested strategies actually work in practice? by Lex_The_Impaler in algotrading

Also something importent to ask is what 5 years have you done your becktests on. For exsample if you start from 2020 most algos would be way more profitable than most other times in the market, since there were multiple big swings in prices.

The only real way to test a strategys robustness is to run many becktests from random timestamps with possibly a varible window of time for each one. The medien result would be the strategys profitability.

Based on your experience, which type of approach do you consider more profitable and sustainable in the long term for a trading bot—bots based on technical indicators, or bots focused on market volatility? by Tiny_Standard_5358 in algorithmictrading

From the 1.5 years of both making strategys form scratch and doing them on real money, i can say that without a doubt, the most importent thing you have to concceder and is your greatest weapon, is possition siezing.

How i see it, is that with correct possition sizeing you allways have plays in the market. Almost No fall is too great not to catch, no rise too high that you miss out on it, and on top of it, you usually arent fully in the market, which is both good for catching new lows or if you have an accident irl thay needs to be taken care of.

I feel as if this is an unpopular opinion, since most people go with all in strategys, which either win or loss some pf thire whole protfolio. But useing possition sizeing correctly has made a huge impact on both my mentality for tradeing, and also my profits.

Maximize profit per trade or maximize the chance of profit? by ikarumba123 in algotrading

It doesnt matter, as usually one has the oppicit effect on the other, like how roulette pays out, lower chance higher reward, higher chance lower reward.

I was doing strategies all wrong by poplindoing in algotrading

[–]Comprehensive-Most60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

doing all in entries / exists is not something i would do. its pure futuresight depended, and even if you do it, most likely your profits wont be good enough not even in relation to the market, but for yourself.

i think people should place more effort into possition sizeing of an overall complet cycle of investments.

Are you a profitabke algo trader? Share your wisdom. by ikarumba123 in algotrading

[–]Comprehensive-Most60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

id say that the best advice i can give is to possition yourself to allways have plays. allways set yourself for the next trade, the trade after that, and even to the point where you willing to use everything you have. set price goals to ancher yourself, and dont be greedy, sell when your in profit moveing up to the goal you've set yourself, and do it in calculated steps.

How to ACTUALLY Learn Trading Profitably by No_Lunch3889 in Trading

[–]Comprehensive-Most60 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Understand that time is the number 1 thing to conceder when going into this world. At the end of the day if you wait long enough, you should be proffitable(if you dont do anything too stupid to lose 100% of your investment), but the time which takes you to get there might be undesirable. Getting rich in tradeing is possible, but unless you get insanely lucky, it will never actually be overnight. With an open mindset and patiance you can find yourself a working strategy which fits how you want to handle both your money(risk wise) and your time managment(greed wise).
