  Coming up with a "Strategy"-strategy
Posted by: wilbertvdl - 01-13-2019, 11:43 PM - Forum: Automated Trading - Replies (14)

Hi all,

I'm wondering: how do you guys define which strategy you are eventually going to use in live trading?

I've been doing a fair bit of backtesting, with both manual parameters setting and bruteforce/gekkoga results. Both on various strategies like MACD, RSI_BULL_BEAR(_ADX), RSI, etc. And of course on various timeframes.

With all these combinations I obviously get very mixed results. One strategy with a certain set of parameters perform better on certain timeframes and other strategies better on other timeframes.

As far as I can see it there are a couple of steps involved in defining what strategy you're going to use:
Determine which asset/currency you're going to trade;
BTC/USDT, ETH/BTC, XRP/ETH, etc.

What timeframe would you like to cover in your upcoming trade-periode;
Are you looking for shortterm (few weeks, a month) or longer term (months, year) trade-period?

What timeframe in the history would resemble your upcoming trade-periode (I guess this requires some feeling for the market);
Do you expect your upcoming trade-periode to be overall bullish or bearish?
Was there a time-span in history with a comparable trend?

What is the actual trade strategy you're going to use?
Do you base that on trying out a couple of strategies? Do you have a go-to strategy?

Finding the right parameters
(brutforce/gekkoga)backtesting?

To papertrade or not to papertrade?
Once you have your tradeperiod, strategy and parameters, do you actually start papertrading or do you start live-trading based on your research so far?

To be honest, I'm quite struggling with these steps. Perhaps my aproach is faulty or my knowledge lacking.

How did you come up with the set-up you're using for live-trading and which strategy are you using?

I would love to read it!


  Parameter optimization of Neural strategies
Posted by: Bychance - 01-13-2019, 05:27 AM - Forum: Strategy Development - Replies (19)

Hi friends,
Is there any guide on how to optimize the parameters for neural strategies? I found several posts about using the genetic algorithm to optimize the parameters. I did not see any information if it can be used for neural strategies as well. However, I could not run the genetic algorithm and appreciate if anybody could help. The steps mentioned by Gekko warez did not work for me. I found some others had the same problem with running the genetic algorithm.
Thanks,


  Multiple assets trading
Posted by: Bychance - 01-13-2019, 05:21 AM - Forum: Strategy Development - Replies (3)

Hi friends, 
I started using Gekko currently. I'm using Linux commandline to run gekko. I added several alts and started trading based on BNB. Is there any way to limit the buy and sell of each coin based on its balance? Because I noticed that the trading bot used my total BNB balance just for one coin. It will be ideal if the trading bot just could buy and sell based on each coin's balance and add each profit (if any!) for further trading of that coin.
Thanks


  I can not start the web interface

I installed gekko in docker in a virtual machine without nginx. When I try to access it from the host machine, I see this popup:



Disconnected

Something happened to either Gekko or the connection. Please check the terminal where Gekko is running or your network connection.

Posted by: informaster - 01-11-2019, 02:15 PM - Forum: Strategy Development - No Replies

I made a strategy where every time they cross the middle, buy or sell.

I'm working with binance ...

What is certain is that theft opens but then closes soon.

Can someone explain what I'm doing wrong?

Code:
/ GTR
var strat = {};

// Prepare everything our strat needs
strat.init = function() {
 this.name = 'GTR';
 this.trend = 'none';

 this.requiredHistory = this.tradingAdvisor.historySize;


 this.addTulipIndicator('slow', 'ema', {
   optInTimePeriod: this.settings.slow
 });

 this.addTulipIndicator('fast', 'ema', {
   optInTimePeriod: this.settings.fast
 });


}

// What happens on every new candle?
strat.update = function(candle) {

}

strat.log = function(candle) {
 // nothing!
}


strat.check = function(candle) {

 const ema1 = this.tulipIndicators.slow.result.result;
 const ema2 = this.tulipIndicators.fast.result.result;
 var   priceclose = candle.close;
 //console.dir(ema1)


   if (ema1 > ema2){
       this.trend = 'Compra';
       this.advice('long');

       console.dir(this.trend)
   }

   if (ema1 < ema2){
     this.trend = 'Venda';
     this.advice('short');

     console.dir(this.trend)
   }    


}

module.exports = strat;
