Ironman

What is it? how it does it? And how to use it:

i) Ironman is a multifaceted strategy builder, which uses coloured candles which represent certain customisable inputs being in confluence with one another and the set scenario.

ii) There are 7 customised technical indicators which can be input as a basis for the analytical review.

iii) Determine a primary indicator which dictates a bullish or bearish trend (and colour) and then optionally add up to 6 other indicators to be required to be in confluence which adds another colour to be represented.

An example might be two moving averages crossing as the main trend determination. The primary determinant is dictated as the trend being “bullish or bearish” and the added confluence adds an additional layer being “very bullish or very bearish”

iv) Users select which conditions they wish to enter and exit trades on using the Bullish / Very Bullish and Bearish / Very Bearish settings. This can be combined with other timeframes.

v) The selected inputs for each indicator will show in a table contained in the bottom right-hand corner. Active indicators within the system will be highlighted.

vi) Ironman is built to include various take profit and stop loss options such as trailing stops, and fixed percentage targets which can be included in the strategy. Different timeframes can be used to determine the stop if users wish to do so.

vii) Users can require that there is also confluence with a differing time period or choose long and short-only options which can be dictated independently or based upon filtering criteria using moving averages.

viii) Using the strategy settings, users are also able to choose backtesting periods.

ix) Position label settings allow users to show various backtesting options such as profit by position, total backtesting results and results for the active position.

x) Ironman enables users to automate trading easily using the input boxes under Alert messages which also allows connection to a third party which can conduct execution. Always make sure to thoroughly test the strategy if it is being automated.

xi) To get the best out of Ironman, build up a strategy for the timeframe and asset you are looking at and back-test outcomes as variables are layered in. Ensure to backtest over a suitable length of time.

xii) When optimising input variables, it can sometimes visually assist in having the underlying inputs on the screen via the standard indicators.

xiii) There are many boxes of information in the input variables, which explain how to use each part. Users can also add features such as a marker showing on the chart where all indicators are bullish/bearish, or where RSI is overbought / over sold.

xiv) Users can further customise the style of the tool under the style tab in the indicator settings.
