This is the backtesting version of the PD Crypto Performer (Alert). The strategy assumes the same capital amount invested ($10,000) each trade. You can also see how your capital grows over time by enabling the reinvesting proceeds option. For details, please check out this tutorial. The backtesting results could be easily improved in live trading by following the recommended methods of use below.
To assist the decision-making process, the code currently references BTCUSD. As a result, it is only suitable for crypto traders. However, we are working on the stock and forex versions, and the Performer will have these compatibilities soon.
Most importantly, our signals DO NOT REPAINT!
Recommended Use:
- Time Frame: 1HR - Asset: Large cap crypto assets. For lower risk tolerance, we recommend using the indicator on ETHUSD. For maximizing profits, we recommend using the indicator on BCHUSD. - Always set stop loss according to your own risk tolerance - Take profits along the way.
Recommended Use for Advanced Traders:
- Position sizing: Larger position if the 1HR signal is in the same direction compared to the 4HR trend. Smaller position if the 1HR signal is in the opposite direction compared to the 4HR trend. - Better entry/exit points: Track the 1HR signal for the asset you are trading on other exchanges along with the BTCUSD 1HR signal. Sometimes, the signals from different exchanges occur with a 1-2 hour difference. You could use these earlier signals along with a lower time frame (eg. 15min) entry confirmation from your own exchange for better entry / exit points.
