It is a tool that can both apply and be used to optimize equity-curve trading rules.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, maybe you want a TradeStation strategy to stop trading once it has broken its lowest equity level of the most recent 5 equity points (recorded bar-by-bar, per exit trade, or for each trade). Then you want it to start trading again once its simulated performance has made a new high for the most recent 3 recorded equity points. This can be accomplished with the EquityCurveOptimizer without any special modifications of strategy code (EquityCurveOptimizer is a companion strategy that runs side-by-side with your strategies). EquityCurveOptimizer can be further used with the TradeStation strategy optimizing utility to find ideal equity-curve settings. Perhaps instead of the 5 and 3 settings example above, 10 and 7 would perform better. EquityCurveOptimizer can pinpoint such settings.<\/p>\n<p>A classic automation problem for good systems is to know when to stop trading, since losing periods can be protracted. It may be that a systems stops working for a while, or that it stops working permanently. This can happen when the reasons that once made a strategy work, are overwhelmed by other forces, cease to exist or cease to impact markets as they once did.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at the video by clicking on the image below, to see how the EquityCurveOptimizer can be used to cease trading in a system that has continued to make equity lows. The demonstration explains how a strategy can be operated in a long-history chart, to disable trading based on equity performance. Then this equity performance history can be extended into a short-history chart that would not have enough history on its own to disabled trading.<\/p>\n<p>So in addition to illustrating equity-curve rules disabling a strategy, we also illustrate a technical feature of EquityCurveOptimizer that allows you to run your strategies with minimal cpu and memory resources, which can be important to power users.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1124\" style=\"width: 898px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/qclsolutions.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/EquityCurveOptimizer_EqCrvExtending_2012-11-14_0903.swf\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1124\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/qclsolutions.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/EquityCurveOptimizer_EqCrvExtending_11-14-2012-9-06-21-AM_888.png\" alt=\"EquityCurveOptimizer EqCrvExtending\" title=\"EquityCurveOptimizer Equity Curve Extending\" width=\"888\" height=\"644\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1124\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qclsolutions.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/EquityCurveOptimizer_EqCrvExtending_11-14-2012-9-06-21-AM_888.png 888w, https:\/\/qclsolutions.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/EquityCurveOptimizer_EqCrvExtending_11-14-2012-9-06-21-AM_888-300x217.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 888px) 100vw, 888px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1124\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">EquityCurveOptimizer Equity Curve Extending<\/p><\/div>\n<p><b><u><a href=\"https:\/\/qclsolutions.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/EquityCurveOptimizer_EqCrvExtending_2012-11-14_0903.swf\">EquityCurveOptimizer Equity Curve Extending<\/a><\/u><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Please let us know if you have any questions by contacting us at <a href=\"mailto:Support@QCLsolutions.com\">Support@QCLsolutions.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The TicketManager system available through the TradeStation Strategy Network is provided with the EquityCurveOptimizer.
