An algo strategy builder with full control, and no code to write

The Strategy Builder is Tradetron's full builder. A strategy is a set of rules: when to enter, what to trade, when to exit, and what to do if a leg needs repair.

You build those rules from conditions and keywords, add the legs, then backtest the strategy and deploy it to your broker.

What a strategy is made of

A sample set: its entry and exit conditions, written with keywords, and the positions it takes when the entry is true.

How it works

How a strategy comes together

  1. [ 01 ]

    Name it and pick the underlying

    Give the strategy a name and a default underlying.

  2. [ 02 ]

    Add a set

    A set is one idea with its own rules. A strategy can hold several.

  3. [ 03 ]

    Write the conditions

    Build entry, exit and repair conditions from keywords such as time, price, indicators and position values, combined with and/or.

  4. [ 04 ]

    Add the positions

    Use the position builder for each leg: instrument, buy or sell, strike, expiry and quantity.

  5. [ 05 ]

    Backtest and deploy

    Save it, backtest it on historical data, and deploy it in Live Offline or to your broker.

When to use it instead of a wizard

Use a wizard when your idea fits its questions. Use the Strategy Builder when you need indicator-based entries, several sets that act differently, repair rules, variables, or lists of instruments.

Learn the keywords

Every condition is made of keywords. The keyword documentation lists each one with what it returns and an example.

Questions

Common questions

Do I need to know how to code?
No. Conditions are built from keywords and choices. A Python editor is there if you want it, but it is optional.
Can I start from a template?
Yes. Strategy templates are listed on Tradetron; you can also start in the Option Wizard or Advanced Wizard and continue in the Strategy Builder.
What is a repair condition?
A rule for what to do with a position that needs adjusting while the strategy runs, run once or continuously.
Can I backtest before I deploy?
Yes. Backtest the strategy on historical data, and watch it in Live Offline on live prices before you trade it with money.

Build the strategy exactly the way you trade it

Illustration only, not investment advice. Trading in securities and derivatives carries risk. Check how a strategy behaves in a backtest and in Live Offline before you trade it with money.
