Strategies Breakdown and Guide
System 1: Long Term Investment Strategy
Description: This system is a long term trend following model, it detects trends on higher time frames to avoid false
signals and noise. It works best on markets that have trended well in the past, and can be used to time markets that
you think can trend well going forward. It uses no stop losses but exits at the first sign of trend reversal.
Trading Live: Load this strategy on your specified long term investment symbol, it solely trades at the open of each
month, so to trade this strategy live you would only need to check for signals on the first of each month!
Recommended markets: SNP500, Bitcoin, Markets with historical trends etc
System 2: Index Swing Trade
Description: This system looks for dips in an uptrending market and extensions to short in a bear market, it works best on
indexes due to their mean reverting behavior.
Trading Live: Load this strategy on your desired index. This system solely trades at the opening of the trading day, so you
would simply load this strategy onto your chart and wait for the open in premarket, then execute your order of shares,
futures, or options.
Recommended markets: SPY or ES futures, any major index also works.
System 3: Forex Day Trade Mean Reversion
Description: This system takes advantage of a strong bias in the foreign exchange market, it buys dips in uptrends
and short extensions in downtrends.
Trading Live: Load this system on your desired Forex pair. This system trades from 1pm EST - 7pm EST only, so
watch for trades in that time span. It will only execute orders on the open of a new bar, it sets a take profit 20 pips
away from the entry and a stop loss 80 pips away from the entry each time, if you desire you can set these in advance
once you have entered a trade. The system includes an alternative exit that only activates after 12 hours has passed,
so if the system has not hit the stop loss or take profit by then, be on the lookout for an exit alert. The system also
works by exiting a trade all together after 4-12 hours, so if a trade has still not gone in your favor by this time, feel free
to close it.
Recommended markets: Forex pairs that start with GBP, forex pairs that include YEN, but it also works on almost
every forex market. For best results, use OANDA data inside tradingview, as the algorithm was built on this data.
Backtest Note: If you are viewing this strategy in the strategy tester to see results of historical trades you must have
deep backtesting enabled or you will only see the past few months of trade returns, since this strategy uses intraday
data. Tradingview limits the amount of intraday bars on a chart to avoid slow processing.
Example of this effect below
**DEEP BACKTESTING ENABLED**
**NO DEEP BACKTESTING**
System 4: Cryptocurrency Breakout
Description: This strategy looks for strong price trends in crypto currencies and looks to follow the trend, you can
apply it to almost any crypto market even if the past backtests has low trades, since it has been verified to work on
most crypto markets with a long period of data. It uses no stop losses but exits once the trend has reversed, and can
hold for days to months.
Trading Live: Load this system on your desired Crypto currency pair. This strategy only trades the open of a days
bar, but can also trade the close if you set "process on bars close" in the settings, since crypto is 24hrs. Watch for the
alert at a new days open/close and execute your buy order on your preferred crypto broker.
Recommended Markets: BTCUSD, ETHUSD, the major crypto pairs work the best, but any crypto will work if it has
the possibility to trend.
System 5: Forex Trend Following
Description: This strategy looks for price action breaks in the pair GBPJPY, due to this pair being one of the highest
volatility pairs in the forex market. It has a very low win rate, but huge wins of 300 pips and small losses. If the trades
look "ugly" do not fret, and focus on the long term. This strategy will have many losers, with infrequent huge winners.
Live Trades: Load this system on GBPJPY Forex pair. This strategy trades only at the open of each hourly bar, and
can trade 24 hours a day, so it's best to set an open ended alert and enter when you can. If you are trading forex, its
best to combine this with the mean reversion strategy we offer. Once you are in a trade, you can set a stop loss 80
pips away and a take profit 300 pips away, as this is what the algorithm does each time. It also includes a time exit of
7 days, so if a trade is going nowhere after a week, feel free to sell it.
Recommended Markets: GBPJPY
Backtest Note: If you are viewing this strategy in the strategy tester to see results of historical trades you must have
deep backtesting enabled or you will only see the past few months of trade returns, since this strategy uses intraday
data. Tradingview limits the amount of intraday bars on a chart to avoid slow processing.
**DEEP BACKTESTING ENABLED**
**NO DEEP BACKTESTING**
System 6: SPY EOM Long
Description: This strategy takes advantage of a bias at the end of the month in SPY and goes long, it trades a single day of
the month and is a long only strategy. It uses no stop losses and exits after one week of being in a trade.
Live Trades: Load this system on SPY. This strategy trades only at the open of each day and on the second of each month,
so simply watch for alerts on SPY with this strategy on and once it alerts, place your orders for shares, futures, options etc

System 7: Volatility Trader
Description: This strategy takes advantage of a bias in the VIX, and can trade both long and short depending on which
stock you chose to gain exposure with. It uses no stop losses but has a reversal signal. It will exit a trade no matter what
after 60 days has passed and re-examine the market.
Live Trades: Load this system on one of the recommended markets. This strategy trades only at the open of each day, to
trade this strategy on the long side open SVXY on your tradingview chart and wait for the next long signal, then buy shares
with your desired risk exposure on your broker. If you want to use this strategy to benefit from crashing markets then open
VXX or VIXY instead of SVXY. VXX and VIXY are the reverse of SVXY and go up when SVXY goes down. If the market
crashes VXX and VIXY will sky rocket as seen in 2020 period, where the strategy was long.
Recommended Markets: SVXY, VXX, VIXY
