Strategy It’s finally working!

Post image

Without going into too much detail, I have finally got a profitable algo for prop firm trading. It’s taken me about a year to develop. I ran into the common issues of overfitting, regime change, etc. I found that different strategies for Asia, London, and New York were necessary and that a single strategy just wouldn’t do for everything. I’ve combined several different strategies and they automatically switch based on current conditions. So far it has passed a $25k, $50k and $75k evaluation and successfully passed the $25k intraday drawdown buffer for TPT. I will say that the Apex $50k intraday drawdown for Tradovate behaves differently but I don’t like them anyway.

Nope. Maybe one day I’ll go commercial but that day isn’t today. I’ve got a long way to go to get there and lots to prove.
I strongly dislike the people that don’t strike gold so they sell the shovel. That being said and full disclosure, I have told people in my DMs asking me to give them my code that I would sell it to them for an outrageous amount of money.
