a market maker bot / virtual ATM that makes me 1 tick a day on the ES regardless the number of contracts i trade, everyday, forever.
 
If you want to find out about the better strategies, you need to list the full range.

Here is a basic one that does not use price in its inner workings, either manual or as an ATS.

The category would be: "staying on the right side of the market"

when trading over 500 contracts, partial fills are required for each turn. What is showing is an entry, 8 reversals, and a cover at the end of the day.

Entry/exit trading is not a possibility when it comes to mastered trading. To me it looks like some of your choices are entry/exit oriented.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Too low of turnover. But I picked timing market bottoms because those trades are the ones that will make you a mint in a matter of days when the market recovers (assuming hypothetically that you are somehow able to pick the exact bottom of every crash). If you knew exactly where to buy, you could just go full margin each time and become a billionaire compounding the profits.
 
Quote from atticus:

None of the above. Turnover is far too low.

That's like saying a high-turnover strategy is bad because the profit-per trade is too low. You can't judge a strategy purely by turnover.
