alGROWithm Premium - Strategy TesterThe alGROWithm Strategy Tester is a supplement to the original alGROWithm indicator.
Use this strategy to do your own back testing and find the best settings that work for your asset of choice.
█ WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT
Different assets require different settings for optimal results. This strategy script will allow you back test different settings for alGROWithm in order to analyze key metrics such as win rate and P/L. TradingView functionality also enables you to view a high level performance summary and even see every single individual trade made by the algo.
█ BEST PRACTICES
Depending on the asset you are testing, it is very important to update the settings as needed. For example, if you are back testing on US30, you will likely need to increase the starting capital. For other assets, you may also need to change the order size to use the Contracts option.
It is important to decide for yourself which back testing parameter you will weigh more heavily in terms of importance. For example, a day trader may want to use a setting that maximizes win rate rather than profit % since we are humans and not computers. Further, it is highly recommended to utilize all of the rich features that TradingView provides with regards to back testing. For example, using the List of Trades tab, go back to find a failed trade and analyze the trade to see if you actually would have taken it in the moment.
After finding the best sensitivity for your asset, it is important to set that sensitivity value on the non-strategy version of alGROWithm for usage. Changing settings on this version will not carry over to the non-strategy version.
