Hi all,
I’ve been building EAs for a few years and am looking for a buddy to work with to bring some fresh ideas and innovative thinking. I can do all the system development and testing if needed, but would prefer to share the testing work. I’m only interested in working with experience traders who understand the system development lifecycle, curve fitting, performance stats, etc…, or have some reasonably mature trading strategies which could be automated.
I’m particularly interested in building simple, robust systems which are based on a defined trading edge, such as trading market noise, mean reversion, proven price patterns, or Fx pairs trading. I’m less keen on trend trading, but open to well considered strategies.
My preference is simple systems with few, if any indicators and work across multiple pairs.
I’m not interested in buying or selling anything to anyone.
A system I’m currently working on has the following backtest results on the EURUSD
2014 61% profit, 23% drawdown
2015 84% profit, 30% DD
2016 (6 months) 39% profit, 15% DD
Another system on the AUDCAD has better backtests results but seems to be curve fitted as demo trading isn’t showing the same results
2015 390% profit, 20% DD
2014 320% profit, 18% drawdown
2013 820% profit, 18% DD
I live in Australia so it would be handy if you are in a similar timezone.
Let me know if you are interested in working together, or post your ideas below for all to share.
Thanks Drew
