trading this strategy would require starting capital of $11,000 usd to operate on the mnq contract. all the reports start in 201901 and go up to 202502.

this is a trend following level 3 strategy that will generate ~1 trade per day on average and will liquidate all positions before the close every friday. the strategy will decide to take no action or sell or buy based on 4 components i have developed myself. this strategy includes a module for risk management. the strategy will be able to profit from practically all 1 - 2% trends on the nq over one or more sessions and will instead suffer losses when the nq is deflated (or inflated) by ~1% and then rapidly made to reverse during the same session.
