TurtleTrade DAX Daily timeframe

TurtleTrade DAX Daily timeframe

Here is a turtletrader code I have been playing around with. It not perfect as there are huge drawbacks, but it has even larger profits. It also need a decent amount of capital to begin with- a lot of patience and stomach ice.
There are many 0-bar trades but only on the stoploss. Profit bars is 5 so I think the trades are valid and not subjected to the zerobar trade issue so many have written about here.
It makes a trade on 2nd day breakout and adds a trade every day with a minimum SL- many get stopped out but some get going.
I also added some extra trades if there was a trend. I hope you like it. I didn’t clean up the code, so you would see some of the alternative things I have been optimizing.
Comments and improvement are as always welcome.

Cheers Kasper

    Just a small correction. The profit is not taken after 5 bars/days, but 20.8. One way of optimizing further and (perhaps) avoid the huge drawdown is to close partial postions along the way. unfortunate it’s not possible in PRT v. 10.2. anyone know if it will be possible in ver 10.3?

    Hi Elsborgtrading,
    It’s interesting and I will do some backtest when I have time. Have you tried the strategy on different timeframes, or just daily?

  3. Elsborgtrading • 09/04/2016 #

    Hi Frank. The initial strategy originated from a 4Week turtletrade breakout with a 1-2 weeks running before taking a profit. That is still profitable, but no way near the gain as for the daily TF. I think I tested it on a several day TF and also 4H timeframe, however there must have been something that showed up that let me not to pursue other timeframes- also the optimization takes a long time, however that not said that it could be profitable on other TF. Let me know what you find out 🙂
    note: Before anyone go and invest any real money in this, I think we need to let it run in papertrading demo first, also I don’t think this would be the first automated strategy I would recommend, as it would take a decent amount of capital to begin with. At least 20000 Euros.

    Further documentation would involve a Monte Carlo simulation so we could see if we were on the right track. I can find 2 MC sim. tool in this site. I have used them both, they seem to complement each other and produce the same results. First one is based on MS Excel, the other is from tickerquest and completely free. They can both be found here http://www.prorealcode.com/topic/monte-carlo-analysis/#post-12935 Basically what it shows is based on the 1000-3000 runs with all 25 years of exported trades, (aprox. 10200 trades) there should be 0% of a blown account or margin call with 2000 $ to begin the automated system. All simulated and exported trades are done with 1 position and no position sizing as the initial strategy shows. I cannot upload macro enabled or any other “suspicious” files here, so the Excel and sim files must be left out, however I will show the screenshot of the relevant data.

    Hello fellow traders. Just to give a status on Demotrade walk forward from 12-09-2016 – 06-12-2016. (Unfortunately ProOrder stopped a while ago and I lost data so I only 3 month of walk forward demo trades)
    result
    Gain:765 Euro
    Running P/L +1120 Euro

    • Nicolas • 09/04/2016 #

      I think you are talking about “forward test” (real live trading of your backtested strategy) and not “walk forward” which is an optimisation concept 🙂 Nevermind.

    Hi Nicolas, and thanks for updating the file.
    When I backtest the code now I get a completely different equity curve- nothing change with the code. Was there any change to PRT?
    Also on the live demo, it closes trades partially- thought it could not be done in Proorder?

  8. Elsborgtrading • 09/04/2016 #

    Hi Nicolas. I made a mistake. a FTSE chart had sneaked under the DAX and when backtesting I accidently picked the wrong one. That why I got the wrong results. But Still I can see partically closing of positions. I am just in doubt- when trades are accumulated and “set stop Loss x” is reached- it looks like it’s different for each accumulated order entry?

    • Nicolas • 09/04/2016 #

      “set stop loss” are individual for each order with IG.

  9. Francesco78 • 09/04/2016 #

    thank you Elsborgtrading
    if the strategy were implemented in 2016 it would have defaulted, I guess its because this strategy is killed if implemented during long periods of range trading.
    is that right?
    Many thanks

      Hi Francesco, I didn’t test the back test for only 2016, but I guess you are right. However I traded the strategy in demo, and it was just to good to be true. I think around 100% in 6 month. Then I realized that IG demo account allowed the SL=7 at 1 am and the Live account was 10 point. This kills the strategy!
      So I been puzzling around this and came up with a new version of code for the turtletrade strategy. Here it is. It is semi automatic. You need start the one name “1st TTradev6.1 Single DAX 1m” code- this need run every day. copy it and name the next 2nd, 3rd and so on. If “1st TTradev6.1 Single DAX 1m” is in marked the next day at 22:00 then start 2nd, and so on. If the previous code, for example 2nd is with loss, stop 3rd, so only codes with profit are running+ one more- in this example 2nd. I do this because I cannot have the best of both worlds when SL is 10 at night. So these codes need to be run at 1 min TF and no accomulating orders. you accomulate by starting the next (2nd) code up. I hope this make sense. Ohh.. and I also tested every single seasonal around the year and implemented that as well. If you want to backtest to 1998, I will provide the “turtletrade-long v3.0 DAX 1D.itf”- file for backtesting purposes. Run this on a 1 day TF. The “1st TTradev6.1 Single DAX 1m.itf” for the strategy I just explained. The v3.0 and V6.1 does not have any indicators that is why it can be comparable. I have also made an indicator that shows when the strategy is hitting an entry that stays in the marked longer than a day.
      Cheers Kasper

    Indicator code does not show up on sundays. This is a bug in PRT 10.3

    Thank you very much Kasper for your long and detailed answer
    I’ll have a look to it, it sounds very promising!
    Cheers
    Francesco 

  14. Elsborgtrading • 09/04/2016 #

    I think it is, but it takes guts and patience because the winning rate is low, but potential gain is very high. backtest for ver 3.0 therefore 6.1 is out of this world.

  15. Francesco78 • 09/04/2016 #

    Hi Kasper, 
    so let me see if I understand.
    at day 1 you run the  “1st TTradev6.1 Single DAX 1m\"at day 2 you run BOTH 1st TTradev6.1 Single DAX 1m AND 2nd TTradev6.1 Single DAX 1m
    if at the end of the day the 2nd is at loss, then you stop it and you dont turn it on ever more, and the day after you start the 3rd.
    So in this framework the 3rd day you will have the 1st and the 3d and so on ..
    Am I right?
     
    Many thanks
    Francesco 

  16. Elsborgtrading • 09/04/2016 #

    No that is wrong 🙂 1st runs always- then only run 2nd if 1st is on market with positions(around 22 pm). Run 3rd if 1st and 2nd is on market with positions-… run (n-th) ver if (n-1-th) ver is on market with positions. If 2nd and 3rd closes all positions- then close 3rd. 1st should be still be on market- so 1st and 2nd is running. If 1st closed all positions. Close 2nd so only 1 st run. Goes for 1st to (n)th versions. Hope it makes sense. 🙂

  17. Elsborgtrading • 09/04/2016 #

    It can only be fully automated if

    IG change minimum SLto 7 at night on DAX
    multi timeframe support AND allowing partial close of positions 

  18. Elsborgtrading • 09/04/2016 #

    A small example. the strategy would have opened 3 position on Dec 4th 2016 and keept it for 24 days closing on 3rd jan 2017 , Also opened 3 pos on wed 9th dec- closing 3rd jan 2017- thats 3*1195 pips + 3*768 pips- costing 22*3*7 pips= more or less 5420 pips gain- of cause it might just be a lucky shoot 😉
