This Expert Advisor bases its trading signals on the BlauTVI trend indicator. It enters when the indicator histogram changes direction, with the signal checked after a bar closes. The rule therefore treats a shift in histogram slope or direction as a…
This Expert Advisor uses the ColorSchaffMFITrendCycle oscillator to generate trades when its position crosses an overbought or oversold level. Signals are evaluated when a bar closes, so the described trigger depends on a completed bar rather than an…
The document briefly introduces Walter Downs’ Point of Balance Oscillator, describing a bar-color display intended to show the prevailing trend in the current balance. The color marks the balance associated with the current trend. An opposite-color signal is…
This beginner-oriented guide surveys tools for working in cryptocurrency markets, which it characterizes as continuous, volatile, and crowded with many tokens. It groups tools by task: market data for checking prices, volume, capitalization, and charts;…
This report adapts hidden Markov models (HMMs), a technique associated with speech recognition, to rank stocks by the likelihood of an upward move. It assumes that rising and falling stocks follow distinct patterns and models those patterns separately. Six…
This report outlines a method for analyzing open-ended bond fund returns and deriving a residual alpha measure for fund screening. It groups risk exposures into eight factors spanning interest-rate curve movements, credit risk, equity markets, and money…
This VeighNa community contribution describes additions to a backtesting statistics engine for evaluating strategies with regressed annual return (RAR), R-Cubed, and Robust Sharpe. RAR is calculated by regressing cumulative returns across time intervals and…
The screen combines a relative strength index below 65 with a ratio of external to internal trading volume above 1.3, then ranks qualifying stocks by the day’s auction amount and selects the top five. The document presents both a database-style query and a…
This research summary presents a framework for timing equity factors whose returns have become less reliable. It reviews indicators such as valuation spreads and pairwise correlations, and examines their relationship with future factor returns. A random…

This practitioner note compares very high-return, moderate-return, and lower-return backtests for short-horizon equity models, focusing on whether their apparent performance persists out of sample. The author reports that aggressive timing filters and models…
This research summary presents factor timing as a risk-control problem rather than solely as a forecast of factor returns. In a multi-factor portfolio, the approach adjusts upper and lower bounds on factor exposures. Those bounds are tied to factor risk,…
This engineering guide explains how to locate backtest slowdowns while preserving simulation behavior. It separates startup, historical data loading, strategy computation, and report generation, and recommends first distinguishing cold runs that fetch data…
This discussion contrasts quantitative trading with manual trading, emphasizing that the main difference lies in execution. It characterizes quantitative trading as using mathematical or statistical models and historical data to identify strategies that may…
The document describes an indicator concept that searches across moving-average periods and selects one using historical trade expectancy, combining win rate with average reward. It also proposes using maximum favorable excursion to estimate a typical trend…
