Quanttrading
Are you a victim of your emotions ruining your trading?Emotions... They are the reason why over 90% of traders fail. Emotions always get in the way. Technical analysis helps to measure the psychology of the market but its still very hard to trade using technical analysis without getting the emotions involved and even harder to automate trading using technical analysis.
This is the biggest reasons why quants are popular and becoming even more popular. Quants take emotions out of trading. Unfortunately, quants are mostly used by Wall Street right now.
The Wall Street Journal has a multi-story piece about quants with catchy titles like "Meet the New Kings of Wall Street" and "The Quants Run Wall Street Now."
We think this needs to change and that quants should be available to the masses. This is why we started Quant Engine, our goal is to provide everyone access to quants.
We think trading should be automated using scientifically proven trading models.
With that said, we want to introduce you to our first strategy model that we are providing to the public. This is only the beginning and it shows the possibilities.
This models is for BTCUSD 1 Day resolution.

Bovie Medical Corporation made me 61.49% profit.This is the second stock this year that made me a 61% profit. AMEX:BVX . Previously it was Nevsun (check out this post). The system gave a buy signal for this stock on 24th Apr 2018 and a position was entered at 3.50. It was held for about 6 months.
The price actually soared to 7.00++ and then it came down recently as the market declines. Today it was sold at 5.65, a whopping 61.49% profit. The only disappointing thing is that it didn't become my multibaggar for the year. It was, for a short moment in September when the price hovered above 7. Anyway with market DJ:DJI getting beaten down due to the ongoing trade war and treasury yield spike, I am doubtful I can see a multibaggar this year.
Nailed it! Lundin and Zijin takeover made me 61.17% profitThis fella AMEX:NSU becomes my third most profitable stock so far in my US portfolio. 61.17% profit!! Initially entered on 19th Apr at 2.73. Anyway the story is that Nevsun had a few takeover attempts by Lundin but failed due to the unfavourable offer price of C$4.75 in July. The takeover news had already bump up the price to around USD3.50. The recent takeover by Zijin Mining Group that offers C$6.00 per share sent the stock price to USD4.40. Awesome!

Quantitative Model to calculate "When Lambo" in bitcoin This is not a target, merely using an indicator I have developed based around the ideas of quantifying risk through volatility and using that to paint a support/resistance/probability cone into the future. Using this model it can be concluded that bitcoin reaching $1,000,000 by the end of 2020 (John McAfee prediction) is possible, ONLY IF bitcoin remains on an upwards trend with similar volatility. This indicator is not biased to a trend at all, it merely paints future barrier that price is unlikely to pass based on volatility up/down, which is why it paints bitcoin $20 with the same probability as $1,000,000.
In my opinion it would be good to accumulate bitcoin at $5,000 and below and hodl just because of the amazing risk reward ratio.
S&P 500: Very last chance for bulls to get back in controlThe extreme selling has stopped this Friday, which increases the odds that the selling climax has been reached and shorts are getting closed before the week ends. Thereby increasing the likelyhood that next week is more bullish again. There is also a quant analysis which favors the bullish side on the Nasdaq in the next trading days, which would help the "S&P 500" to stabilize: biiwii.com
I'm only going long if the "S&P 500" moves back above 2667. If that happens I'm going to use a stop loss at 2638 and a target above the upper range of the open gap at 2725. This trading idea offers a risk/reward of 2.

Momentum inside hammer in August.
Inside week 9/11/17. Tried to go higher in
September, long upper shadow. Rev Strat
Weekly Down Under 79.68. We will see what
December brings. 4 consecutive bearish months.
Has not made a lower low since 01/01/16 at 68.33.
Rob Smith - smithintheblack - Quant Edge learning11/26/17 – November, outside month up, bullish month.
2 inside bullish months within September. There is no
argument that this currency is going up. Railroad tracking
the 20 & 40 up since June 2016. Timeframe continuity.
There is no actionable signal to believe the price is headed
down. With a continued bullish move we can expect target
areas of 132.50-136 to 144. Higher highs and higher
lows since 03-06-17, 9 months
Rob Smith - smithintheblack - Quant Edge learning11/26/17 – November, outside month up, bullish month.
Timeframe continuity to the upside. Outside month,
week, and day up, we will see what new actionable
signals December brings. There is no argument that
the price is not moving up. A sustained December
move above 86.38 is bullish to the top of the triangle
with a target area of 89ish. Then we can potentially
get into the 88, 89, 92, and 95 and 97ish areas.
Rob Smith - smithintheblack - Quant Edge learning11/26/17 – November, outside month and weeks down, bearish sentiment.
Full timeframe continuity. Possibly going to bottom end of triangle,
91ish area. We will see what the beginning of December brings but
there will be a lot of work required to make it back up to top end of
triangle. There is no argument that the price is moving downward.
Rob Smith - smithintheblack - Quant Edge learning11/26/17 – Bias: Neutral. Conflicted with inside month
of November, inside month up, and outside up week.
4 inside weeks within the bearish month
of August. Week of 11/20, Outside week up. We will
must wait and see what actionable signals December
Brings. A move over 77.86, I would be bullish, and a break
Below 76.90 and then 76.37, I would be more bearish than
bullish.
Bearish Head and Shoulders forming on SPYA combination of lukewarm earnings for Q1 and talks of an impending Federal Reserve interest rate hike seem to be slowing down the bullish recovery we've seen in the S&P the past several weeks.
On the technical side, notice the failure to attain a new high. In fact SPY has consistently been unable to break new highs going back to May 2015, when the bear market truly began. Further, note the bearish head and shoulders pattern forming, Heikin Ashi candles with longer wicks to the downside, and somewhat strong resistance from above via the Ichi Moku Cloud.
Recommendations for a short trade: wait for the price to decisively break the neckline with a strong bar. The next fibonacci level serves as a decent profit target at about $200. Note that there is a relative vacuum between the hypothesized entry point and this value, aside from one level of support indicated by the dashed red line. For a stop loss, consider the apex of the right shoulder.
