Next Expiration ATM Straddle Busters

Category: Options Analysis

This template produces a report showing the 1 day % Change price of the at-the-money (ATM) next expiration straddle. If the %Change is positive it means that anybody holding the long straddle made that same % in profit and the straddle was 'busted'. The ATM next expiration straddle is considered the best estimate of stock price movement in the short term. Anybody selling a straddle will profit if the straddle price decreases. If the straddle was busted it means the underlyng 1-day price move was unexpected can be an indication that something unusual is occuring with the stock.

Expected Move For Next N Days

Category: Options Analysis

The Expected Move for the next N days in a stock is the 1 standard deviation move based on implied volatility. Implied volatility for N days is calculated from a stock's option prices for an N days to expiration option, or if an exact N days to expiration option is not available, it is calculated by interpolating from the option series either side of the expiration. Expected Move is the best guess at where the stock's price will be at some future point based on what prices traders are willing to trade the options at today. The math states that price should be within the expected move 68% of the time. This template produces a report showing expected move for one of 12 selectable periods and also shows how often that stock has historically stayed within its expected move.

More Info...

Expected Move By Next Options Expiration

Category: Options Analysis

The Expected Move for the next options expiration is the 1 standard deviation move in stock price based on next expiration options implied volatility. If a stock has weekly options expirations on a Friday, and this template is run on a Thursday, the report will show the expected move for Friday. This is the most accurate estimate of how the stock will move as it uses current day options pricing for next day stock price movement. If a stock also has an earnings report on the Friday, the expected move is the most accurate estimate of how the stock will respond to earnings. The majority of time, stock price ends up inside the Expected Move

Trade Simulation Batch Run

Category: Trade Simulation

This template runs a batch of trade simulations as specified in the Input Configuration File. You can create your own input configuration file using Excel. Use the configuration files contained in the {EdgeRater}\Configuration\TradeSimulation\System folder as an example to get started. Each row in the configuration file will produce a Trade Simulation report in the Output Folder specified. Once all configurations have been run a summary report will be shown containing information copied from each simulation report. You can override the From and To dates for the simulation. If you don't override the dates the entire symbol list snapshot is used and so the date range is based on earliest and latest date you have in the snapshot. If you override the dates and specify a From and To date, the simulation will run using your dates if they exist in the snapshot data.

Multi-Factor Trade Analysis

Category: Trade Simulation

This template takes one or more trade simulation reports (generated using the EdgeRater Trade Simulation tab or Batch Run Trade Simulation Template) and tags each trade with the tags specified in the Tag Layout File. A tag is a text element derived from either a lookup list of dates to tags or from running a script containing a technical indicator (such as Implied Volatility, %B, RSI, etc). The output of each script is then divided into range tags such as (0-10%, 10-20%, etc). A Monte Carlo simulation is then run on the entire trade list and also on various combinations of tags (customizable). The resulting report will show the performance of the entire trade list and each tag combination, allowing insight into the effectiveness of the indicator and indicator combinations applied to your trades.

Monte Carlo Analysis

Category: Trade Simulation

This template runs a Monte Carlo simulation on a Trade List. The Monte Carlo simulation constructs new trade sequences using the original returns. It does this many times to produce statistically significant distributions of expected Final Wealth and Max Drawdown. To use this template, first create a Trade List using EdgeRater entries and exits and Trade Simulation featues (or Trade Simulation Batch Run Template). Then save the trade simulation as an Excel file and choose that file as input to this template. (See Book Reference for more info on Monte Carlo Simulation).

Correlation Matrix

Category: Pro Tools

Shows the price correlation of every stock in your symbol list vs. every other stock in your symbol list in an easy to read, sortable report. You choose the time period for correlation and the template does the rest. Scroll around the report and the chart will automatically update to show the selected stock vs. other stock, correlation, alpha and beta. IMPORTANT: This template generates a true many to many matrix, meaning that the resulting number of calculations can be very large depending on the size of your selected symbol list. A symbol list containing 1000 symbols will result in 1,000,000 calculations each occupying one cell. It's okay to use a large list but beware the calculation time will also be longer.

POT/POE For Technical Event (Multiple Symbols)

Category: Pro Tools

This template analyzes price behavior following a technical event in your chosen selection of stocks. It looks at the % price move from the event day and shows two probability cones on two separate worksheets: 1. The Probability of Touch (POT) worksheet shows the probability of price touching the % levels at any point from the event date to the number of days indicated in the column header. 2. The Probability of Expiring (or Ending) (POE) worksheet shows the probability of price ending at each price level after the number of days indicated by the column header. It is commonly said in trading that the probability of touch is twice the probabiltiy of expiring as a general rule. Use this template to get the exact historical probabilities for your selected symbol list (or selected symbols) and chosen technical event. This template differs from the POTBOT and Probabiltiy of Expiring individual templates in that it shows both Probabiltiy Of Touch and Probability of Expiry in one report and more signifcantly it allows you to show the combined probabilities of an entire symbol list or selected stocks from a symbol list (use the check box next to symbols in your list to include or exclude stocks)

Probability Of Touch Based On Technicals (POTBOT)

Category: Pro Tools

This template analyzes price behavior following a technical event in your chosen stock. It looks at the % price move from the event day and shows the probability of touching each price level based on prior history. This is extremely useful for options traders, where option strikes have an associated probability of touching as determined by the current price of that option. In essence the option's probability of touching is a forward looking consensus of all participating traders. The POTBOT shows the probability of touching based on historical technical events. Probability of Touching (POT) and Probability Of Expiring (POE) are terms used in options pricing. Knowing the historical probabilities will give you more insight into your options trades and how stocks move in the presence of technical events.

More Info...

Probability Of Expiring (POE)

Category: Pro Tools

This template analyzes price behavior following a technical event in your chosen stock. It looks at the % price move from the event day and shows the probability of price expiring (closing) at each price based on prior history. Use this in combination with the Probability Of Touching template. You will often find that the probability of touching is roughly twice the probability of expiring. Probability of Touching (POT) and Probability Of Expiring (POE) are terms used in options pricing. Knowing the historical probabilities will give you more insight into your options trades and how stocks move in the presence of technical events.

Price Predictor Template

Category: Pro Tools

This template analyzes historical price changes in a stock after a specified event has occurred and shows a summary of the average % change. The summary is given for multiple time periods after the event. The average % change is the 'Price Prediction'. Test your favorite entry signals and see a report showing every stock in your symbol list on one screen. You can select an individual cell in the report and choose to 'Open Linked Document' which will show the complete trade list and simulation details for that combination of stock, entry signal and days held. WARNING: Running this template on a large list of stocks over a long time-frame can take a while to process. For instance, 1000 stocks, reporting 10 intervals will generate 10,000 individual trade simulation reports before the summary is shown. it is recommended to test with a small list at first until you know you have things set-up correctly and then get your computer to run the template on a larger list and longer time-frame while you take a break.

%B Bucket Migration

Category: Pro Tools

This template produces a report that shows how many stocks from your selected list are in each %B bucket. You can scroll forward and back day by day to see how the buckets change. In addition, the Inflows and Outflows section shows graphically which buckets the stocks are moving between. For example, if a stock was previously in the %B > 1 bucket and now is in the %B = 0.8 bucket, the >1 Outflow bar chart will include that move in addition to the 0.8 Inflow chart. This helps to answer questions such as "What tends to happen to stocks that are above their upper Bollinger Band" or "What's the distribution of movement of stocks that are at their mid Bollinger Band" as well as many others.

Linear Regression Standard Deviation Channel Analysis

Category: Hot Topics

This template shows the daily linear regression line and standard deviation channels along with annualized % slope values for a selection of periods (5 days through 1 Year). The 2 standard deviation channel upper and lower values are calculated along with a value indicating where the close price is in relation to the bands. The Annualized slope % is a value which shows where the linear regression line will be in 1 year if it continues on its current trajectory. By annualizing this value it is possible to compare stocks to show which are increasing or decreasing at a greater rates. Also by showing a selection of different periods for linear regression slopes side-by-side it is possible to see which timeframes have the steepest slopes. Therefore this template can be used to uncover a lot of different scenarios. For instance if you want to see stocks that have an upward slope over a 1 year period, a downward slope over a 3 month period and an upward slope over a 10 day period it is easy to do by sorting the columns in the appropriate order. By default the results are sorted by the 252 Day (1 Year) slope of the linear regression line in descending order which means that stocks that have the best trajectory in the longer time frame rise to the top of the list.

%B Buckets Per Symbol

Category: Hot Topics

This template produces a report showing the %B Bucket numbers for each symbol in your selected symbol list. The report show the last 6 Daily, Weekly and Monthly values allowing you to easily sort and filter to find the desired stocks. For instance Filter the Weekly buckets to show only stocks that are in the upper portion of the Weekly Bollinger Bands, then sort the daily buckets to show improving bucket progress.

Stocks In-Play during the last N days

Category: Hot Topics

This template produce a report showing which stocks have been In-Play during your chosen time period. Not necessarily the stocks that have gained the most from the beginning to the end of the period but the stocks that moved the most during the period. The Max Play % is that maximum gain that you could have achieved if you bought at the low of the period and sold at the high or shorted at the high and covered at the low. All of the indicators used in this template are based on Lowest Low and Highest High. In addition you can see which stocks had the highest % gain/loss from beginning to end and where the current price is in relation to the highest high and low and how many days it has been since the high or the low. Stocks that are going to move in the immediate future are likely to have also moved in the immediate past and this template will alert you to those opportunities. You can run this template intraday using a 1 day lookback to find which stocks are moving today.

Guppy Multiple Moving Average Template

Category: Hot Topics

This template uses the ideas presented in the book "Trend Trading: A Seven Step Approach To Success" by Daryl Guppy and provides a report that shows the current state of the Guppy Multiple Moving Average (GMMA). Users are encouraged to read the book to get details such as how to use the GMMA to determine trend behavior for a mid-trend entry. The book identifies 3 types of ongoing trend: 1. Fast moving steep trend 2. Longer term steady trend with limited trading activity 3. Long term trend with consistend trading activity The GMMA can also be used to determine entries during price weakness: 1. Timing entry into relatively minor pullbacks in strong momentum trends 2. Rebound entries after a significant collapse in prices 3. Safe trend entries when other tools have signalled a false trend collapse. This also touches on the way the GMMA is used to more effectively mange exits and to avoid exits on false trend breaks. At the heart of the GMMA is the idea of "Investors" vs. "Traders". Investors are the longer term group and traders the shorter term group. It is the way these two groups interact that helps to navigate trend trading successfully.

VPA Signals

Category: Hot Topics

VPA stands for Volume Price Analysis and is a term coined by Anna Coulling and described in her trading book "A Complete Guide to Volume Price Analysis". It is similar in concept to Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) and based on the ideas documented by Richard Wyckoff and Jesse Livermore in the 1920s. The idea is to forecast future price movements based on an analysis of current volume in combination with price action. Using these techniques it is possible to determine supply and demand in the market. VPA works in all time frames and accross all markets. The report produced by this template identifies all current VPA signals in your selected list of tickers. In addition a special VPA chart is linked to the report which contains colored symbols identifying the past and present VPA signals. The VPA code that this template uses has been ported from Karthik Marar's open source code.

Someone Knows Something (Daily)

Category: Hot Topics

This template detects stocks that are in a period of low volatility and have seen volume bursts come in during that period. Low volatility is detected using the squeeze (Bollinger bands inside Keltner Channels) and volume bursts are detected using Pocket Pivots (Morales & Kacher) in both up and down configurations. The count of pocket pivots during the squeeze is calculated and shown as a percentage of the overall squeeze length. The Up - Down count is also calculated to show the bias of volume bursts. These are stocks that have been recently ignored by traders after being previously actively traded. The volume bursts signal that someone is accumulating or distributing shares.

Free Parking

Category: Hot Topics

Free Parking is a term coined by the late great market analyst and good friend Ian Woodward that refers to a stock that pulls back to and holds near its 50 day SMA. Dave Steckler of etfroundup.com took this concept further to include stocks or ETFs holding near their 20 day EMA (or 17 day SMA). In this template you can choose the Moving Average and also define a Moving Average Slope annual % threshold that is used to trigger MA Trend notifications. You can also choose how close the price should be to the moving average to be considered 'Free Parking'. Examples of acceptable moving Average definitions are: MA(50), EMA(20), EMA(17). You can also define a 10 week moving average like so: MA(10)#WEEK1. Free parking is just one part of the equation, this template also gives indications as to whether free parking will hold and the stock will continue in the direction of the moving average or break through. ADX and RSI are used for this. (See reference).

Heikin Ashi Red-Green

Category: Hot Topics

Heikin Ashi Candles represent the 'Average Bar' and allow a trader to visually see a trend more easily than by using regular candlesticks. The Red or Green color of a Heikin Ashi candle tends to stay Red or Green as a trend develops and doesn't change color on minor retracements. This template creates a report that show the last 10 colors of the Heikin Ashi candle for each stock. The columns can be sorted by clicking on the column headers so that you can find stocks that are either starting a new trend, continuing a trend or ending a trend. In addition to sorting via clicking on the individual prior bar headers there are two 'custom' sorts that will bring to the top of the list stocks that have a new color where the previous 9 colors were the opposite color. Use these sorts find stocks that have had strong trends that might be ending.

The current stock price is above both the 150-day (30-week) and the 200-day (40-week) moving average price lines. 2. The 150-day moving average is above the 200-day moving average. 3. The 200-day moving average line is trending up for at least 1 month (preferably 4–5 months minimum in most cases). 4. The 50-day (10-week) moving average is above both the 150-day and 200-day moving averages. 5. The current stock price is trading above the 50-day moving average. 6. The current stock price is at least 30 percent above its 52-week low. (Many of the best selections will be 100 percent, 300 percent, or greater above their 52-week low before they emerge from a solid consolidation period and mount a large scale advance.) 7. The current stock price is within at least 25 percent of its 52-week high (the closer to a new high the better). 8. The Relative Strength rating is no less than 70 and preferably above 80 or 90

Category: George Lea

The CCI (Commodity Channel Index) is a versatile indicator that can be used for many different types of trading. This template focuses on two applications of CCI as taught by George Lea and learned from market timer and mentor David Elliott. The first use is the Trend Trade which is indicated by the stock entering the Zoom Zone. The second use is resumption of trend indicated by the Snapback. For more details about these trading techniques see the 'More Info' link below. This template produces a comprehensive Daily, Weekly and Monthly report of symbols that are in the Zoom Zone as well as symbols that are in 'Snapback' ready and fire states.

Red-Green Continuation Plays

Category: George Lea

George Lea uses this template to alert to possible continuation plays. It works as follows: Your selected list of stocks is scanned over the specified time period (Default: 10 days) and an primary direction is determined based on the highest high and lowest low of that period. If the Highest High occurred after the lowest low, the primary direction is up. If the Lowest Low occurred after the highest high the primary direction is down. The annualized % growth based on the linear regression line over the time period is shown. The current retracement % from the highest high or lowest low of the primary direction is calculated. The time period is scanned to see if there were any 52 Week Highs, Lows, Abnormal Volume or Pocket Pivots and a 'Yes' in the respective column is shown if so. Finally the current bar's color is shown as 'Red' or 'Green', alerting to a possible continuation play in the primary direction. For example, if the primary direction is up, look for shallow retracements (less than 50%) followed by a green bar. If you are trading intraday you might not need the green bar, instead you can place an entry stop limit order using your favorite technique (such as opening range breakout).

Gil Morales: Undercut and Rally

Category: Morales & Kacher

At our Pacific Northwest Trading Workshop, Gil Morales gave a presentation explaining one of his 'Ugly Duckling' setups called 'Undercut and Rally'. You can view the recording of that session via link below. This template is in response to that presentation to help locate stocks that have undercut prior lows. The template detects 3 categories of prior low, each with a different granularity. Category 1 is a low that has seen a subsequent move up greater than 1%, Category 2 a subsequent 5% move and Category 3 a subsequent 10% move. The report also gives information regarding the 50 SMA so that it is possible to sort and filter stocks in uptrends or downtrends. The default sort for the report is stocks that have undercut at least one of the lows and then sorted by % distance that the stock is above its 50 SMA.

Jeffrey Scott: Low Jump Buy / High Jump Sell

Category: Jeffrey Scott

One of the techniques Jeffrey uses is to locate overbought and oversold stocks that have reversal signals. He uses the High Jump (an indicator developed by Ian Woodward) as the overbought/oversold indication. The high jump adds the distances between the closing price and the 17, 50 and 200 day moving averages. Jeffrey has developed a High Jump Oscillator which shows how close the current high jump is to the max high jump level acheived over the last N lookback bars. A reading of +100 indicates that the current high jump is at the max level. A reading of -100 indicates that the current high jump is at the min level. This template allows the user to choose a high jump threshold to give overbought/oversold stocks. The template also shows bullish and bearish potential reversal signals.

Jeffrey Scott: Shorting

Category: Jeffrey Scott

"Shorting stocks is as much an art as science. Gil Morales has recently written an excellent book about shorting which has stimulated my interest in finding stocks to short. One of the things that I learned from Gil was to look for stocks that were leaders and now failed. In addition to various chart patterns such as Head and Shoulder, often these stocks fail at major moving averages. Couple this with the finding years ago by Chris Wilson, an active particpant in the HGSI community, that on a weekly chart, when leaders rolled over you often found that this was accompanied by a relative underperformance (RS) of the issue vs the SP500. Lastly, as part of the gang of 5, we created a timing indicator called BONGO that often gave a sell signal on a weekly view as stocks became shortable. For this template, I have asked Chris to help me scan for these key findings on a daily or weekly chart --> RS underperformance vs SP500, failure at major moving averages, BONGO weekly turning to sell signal. My hope is to find shortable candidates early after they have topped and turned to the darkside" - Jeffrey Scott

In earlier days they used the distance from the index to the 17 DMA, 50 DMA and 200 DMA but have since found that just using the 200 DMA is sufficient and keeps it simple. This template has been designed to give a feel for where the market stands now using the past history. It is only meant as a guide. The 5 highest peaks in the High Jump are calculated and shown in the template along with the current value so that you can immediately see how far you are away from past targets. One caution is that you can't keep going forever as greed can become too much greed. Use the accompanying High Jump chart to look for divergences.

Convert Warehouse HTML To Spreadsheet

Category: HGSI

This template converts a saved HGSI warehouse html file to a spreadsheet for use within EdgeRater and Excel. The spreadsheet is saved to the {Documents}\EdgeRater\HGSI\Warehouse Archives folder. The first part of the spreadsheet filename is the date of the latest data contained in the warehouse html file. The Warehouse index generation template automatically creates the spreadsheet as part of the processing and so if you run that template on a daily basis you may not need to run this one. However here you can select any warehouse html file and do a direct conversion.
