Our Autotrading Bot, whom we call "MATT" (Managed Algorithmic Technical Trading), is designed to work with the Futures Contract "NQ" due to the price action it commonly provides. Variations for other instruments are being developed.

​

MATT is adaptive. It monitors market activity throughout the day and around the trades to adjust entries, targets, and stops automatically, based on the current price action - so you don't have to. This is greatly beneficial since market volatility and structure change throughout the trading day. (i.e. market open vs. midday vs. overnight sessions)

​

MATT is "managed auto". Although it finds, enters and exits trades automatically, it is actively managed by humans and can easily be turned on, off, or paused should there be an anticipated event that may interfere with MATT's logic. For example, a news release such as a political announcement. However, when it is on, it trades automatically based purely on technical analysis.

​

MATT is simple. It follows the principles of Occam's Razor where "the idea that the most likely explanation for an event is usually the simplest explanation." In trading, that means we use a simpler strategy, with less variables, rather than a more complex one because it tends to be more testable.

​

This system is risk-averse. It is designed to exit trades that do not go in its favor. It does not hold on to losing trades hoping they will turn around and it does not add to losing trades to "average down". It takes about 30 trades per day and averages about 10 minutes per trade.
