# UltraAlgo Platform

The tradingview optimizer is built on our proprietary algorithmic trading platform and is designed for simplified trading. At a click of a button customers can identify the best performing combination of settings leveraging either a genetic OR grid based algorithm for optimization. Optimization outputs can be tuned either for Profit Factor (percentage of wins) or Profits (realized returns). Leverage the same features that are usually reserved for HFT (High Frequency Traders).

Speed and performance is at the core of our optimization algorithm. High performing backtests can be identified within 5 seconds on average, which is significantly faster than most comparable analytics products on the market.

Our platform now also includes brokerage intergation with TradeStation, Interactive Brokers, Alpaca, TD Ameritrade and Tier 1 providers.

We recommend following the tutorial video listed below.

# TradeStation Platform

On March 2022, TradeStation notified it's partners that the TradeStationApp store was closing down effective September 2022. This now leaves a community of subscribers and developers with a relatively short window to migrate strategies to other platforms with another language outside of EasyLanguage. One of the key features with the TradeStation platform included the extensive backtesting available with an optimizer that included a wide range of parameters.\
\
Forward to today (September 21, 2022) and the TradeStationApp Store is roughly a week away from closure. Luckily, in 2021 our development team started working on a trading platform that allows integration to various exchanges such as **TradeStation**, **Interactive Brokers**, **TD Ameritrade** and a few others. \
\
The UltraAlgo platform was designed with ease-of-use in mind, and allows customers to perform similar functions to what was available via the traditional TradeStation exchange but with far few steps. Real-time data is included with the subscription to the NYSE / NASDAQ / OTC. \
\
Our latest platform release leverages the power of genetic algorithms in combination with our robust 15-indicator script to identify patterns quickly with accuracy. Run through thousands of input combinations for a clear indication of which settings delivered optimal profitability rates or profit factor. We include both models of optimization, should a trader be focused on a high return / high risk vs lower returns / lower risk allocation strategy.

# Portfolio Allocation

Professional traders outperform the market because, mainly, they diversify their portfolios instead of concentrating their attention on a single security. Our new portfolio optimization tool allows doing exactly that. Retail investors now have the ability to create optimal portfolios across a number of securities and determine how to combine them in the most profitable way.\
\
Unlike other providers, we deliver allocation calculations on a daily basis, rather than on a monthly or yearly basis. This allows customers to rapidly respond and adapt to changing market conditions.

### **Optimal Allocation**

Start by selecting any number of securities and a period. The tool will give you the securities that correspond to three types of portfolios: Minimum Risk, Maximum Returns, and Equal Allocation. In each of these portfolios, it will also show the daily and annual returns and risks (\*).&#x20;

* Minimum Risk: Produces a portfolio with such a low risk that no other combination of the same securities can beat.
* Maximum Returns: Produces a portfolio with the highest Sharpe ratio (a favorite among investors)
* Equal Allocation: Produces a portfolio that places an equal amount of funds in each security (the simplest but usually a low-performing strategy).

### **Stock Picks**

Outperform yourself! Use returns and risk to narrow down your selection and respond to market conditions.\
\
A summary of the performance calculations are delivered using current price data. Daily and Annual returns are both included as part of this calculation.

### **Trade by Sector**

Narrow your focus by interest groups, we now have full coverage of over 20 sectors.&#x20;

* Sector View: Select from +7,000 securities.
* Sector / Size: Automatically narrow down your list of targets by market capitalization.&#x20;
* Plot prices across multiple charts instantly.
* See Returns and Prices over any period to validate back-testing.

# Is Heikin-Ashi Good?

Heikin-Ashi (Heiken-Ashi), means "average bar" in Japanese. Inn essense, it's a technique for smoothing out the chart, this way no gaps in the market data exist. The [Heikin-Ashi](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/h/heikinashi.asp) technique is used to identify general market trends and predict price movements. Great feature for novice traders trying to identify a movement. <br>

### The Problem with Heikin-Ashi

Price data from the Heikin-Ashi chart is smoothed across trading sessions, and gaps in market data. As such, the chart might demonstrate average weighted data that has been smoothed, and does not match the current price for a security. Many algorithmic trading providers recommend that their signals only be used in conjunction with Heikin-Ashi charts, however, we feel that this might be a good solution for interday trading, but not practical for intraday trading (day trading). \
\
We resolved this issue but offering the best of both worlds! The signals are based and fire off regular candle stick ticks, but the charting represents Heikin-Ashi. This way, customers received the real-time market data with a smoothed chart. \
\
Notice the 0.04 price difference between the two charts below. That's the problem with Heikin-Ashi.

# Stock Trading

{% hint style="info" %}
**Trading in securities involves a high degree of risk.** Content, news, research, tools, and securities symbols are for educational and illustrative purposes only and do not imply a recommendation or solicitation to buy or short a particular security or to engage in any particular investment strategy.

## Algorithmic Trading for Stocks

Algorithmic trading involves identifying patterns that deliver consistent returns based on multiple performance metrics. Some of the most common considerations include Profit Factor (Gross Wins divided by Gross Losses) and Profitability (Percentage of Winning Trades relative to Total Trades executed). Most technical traders are less concerned on the overall fundamentals relating to the security. Volatility is a major consideration when reviewing performance, specifically as it relates volume and potential indications of institutional support in either direction.

Search thousands of trading charts or run the analysis yourself with our one-click optimization (same tools leveraged by high-frequency traders).

## Algorithmic Trading for Stocks

Algorithmic trading across some of the best ETFs involve identifying patterns that deliver consistent returns based on multiple performance metrics. Trading across sectors allows investors to manage risk by reducing exposure to any single security. However, leverage products do carry a higher range of risk during times of volatility. It's important to consider the fees associated to holding leveraged products when calculating returns.

To generate consistent performance, we utilize backtesting across Profit Factor (Gross Wins divided by Gross Losses) and Profitability (Percentage of Winning Trades relative to Total Trades executed). Most technical traders are less concerned on the overall fundamentals relating to the security. Volatility is a major consideration when reviewing performance, specifically as it relates volume and potential indications of institutional support in either direction. Though ETFs cannot be directly manipulated since they comprise of a basket of securities, our institutional markers can pin-point general inflows and outflows of funds across the market as a whole.

## Algorithmic Trading for Forex

Algorithmic trading across some of the best currency pairs within the Forex networks involve identifying patterns that deliver consistent returns based on multiple performance metrics. Trading across this asset class allows investors to manage risk through liquidity due to the large volumes of international trades.

To generate consistent performance, we utilize backtesting across Profit Factor (Gross Wins divided by Gross Losses) and Profitability (Percentage of Winning Trades relative to Total Trades executed). Most technical traders are less concerned on the overall fundamentals relating to the security. Volatility is a major consideration when reviewing performance, specifically as it relates volume and potential indications of institutional support in either direction. Though Forex cannot be directly manipulated due to the large volume of liquidity, our institutional markers can pin-point general inflows and outflows of funds across the market as a whole.
