Time to start a new journal exploring the depths of systematic trading. The journal will aim at mainly algorithmic trading but it will not be limited to that, however, no discretion will be applied. Everything will to be rules and math based.
The goal is to HAVE FUN, LEARN and possibly EARN :) and earn consistently of course!
In the last few years I have become fascinated by algorithmic trading and I've been fascinated with price action trading for many years so I'd like to combine these fields that I appreciate so much. At first I will start by testing a few indicator based ideas, strategies and later I will go more into coding PA based systems. Again, the goal is to have fun and explore.
I will mainly write in Python, which is a lovely general-purpose language and it will be suitable for these low-frequency trading ideas / systems.
The main part of this thread will likely revolve around creating ideas / hypo's / systems and testing them. When it comes to it I'm sure the possible challenges of execution will be overcome as long as the other party has a good API.
Finally, an interesting challenge could be to pass a TST or FTMO by the end of the year, however, that will require some trickery regarding the possibility of execution but it all makes it more fun if anything.
