I can test it sure , but I’m sure it doesn’t work . Give me your criteria etc

I’m an algo trader myself and use python for my own trading but I trade in different market . But I’m sure I can do what you need , all sorts of backtest with different parameters (Keeping aside some chunk of data ) to validate that strategy is not curve fitted. once that’s done then you can...

My edge is cutting losses Early and let profits run until , momentum fades. Here is a insight that I rarely see someone discuss every stock in a long run has its own characteristics and it is highly correlated to the volatility of a stock . For example stocks with lower volatility will work...

that's why I have stop loss placed . and if my stop loss is not hit and price is against me than I add to my position . and in case my stop loss is hit , I am out of the trade.

and I am not adding to losing trades. What I am thinking is to enter small then add position to my trade (but I only add position if my stop loss is not hit).and wait for reversals to play out.

I like to take trade only if I get confirmation , but I don't usually use support/resistance level , I look for fading trends , like slowing momentum, volume is diverging from price ,but price goes on to make higher levels (almost like being overbought/oversold) then I take trade. So I have to...

I was just trying to find if there is any flaw with my system since , you always feel like you are right until you find what's wrong . So was just confirming if there was any fundamental flaw which I didn't notice.

Well most of the time my initial risk reward is 1:2, and some Times 1:3. And since it's kind of mean reverting strategy . I need to have a little bigger stop loss , so if I add to my position when it goes against me I am lossing less on that trade. If I am wrong on that trade. And increasing my...

I take short term positions. And I have strict stop loss , but it's a little bigger.So until that stoploss is hit , I add to those positions , so that if I am wrong overall I have loss of around 2-3% . And if I am right I have bigger profit , and overall my risk reward from my 1st position is...

From all replies it's now clear to me that , my description was not clear.

T That's exactly what I am trying to do . So if there is any news I am out . If it goes against me like 5% I am out , and also since I have added to my position when it moved against me , my average loss is around 2.5-3%.

I have stoploss it's just a bigger stop loss like 4-5% but until stock moves 5% against me . I am adding to my position , so that if I am right I have more profit , and I have more room for my strategy to play out.

Ok actually it's not averaging down it's like having a bigger stop loss , since I am predicting a reversal in near term. So until trend reverse I add to my position , but it's not like I am adding position forever , it's max 4 times then on that 4th position 8 have a strict stop loss , and if...

Ok here my trading system outline, look for potential reversals . wait for it to go into oversold zone. keep adding similar positions in oversold zones like 3-4 times max. Then for the last position added , put stop loss of like (.3)-(.5 )%. and if stop loss is hit then probably I am wrong...
