Hi guys, I'm new to the forum. Nice place you have here!
I was wondering if some of you pros could offer me a little advice. Would it be possible, say, with NinjaTrader or some other automated trading package, to screen through all 6500+ US OTCBB stocks for certain (EOD) criteria then, once reduced to just a couple stocks, trade them according to an EOD strategy.
You see, I've developed an EOD strategy at stockfetcher.com that looks to buy into just a couple signaled stocks (the two with the highest volume out of all the stocks returned by the filter) near the close for the day, then scalp them for a few % in the follow days or exit the position if the profit targets aren't met after some time.
I've been manually trading the strategy with some success, but staying disciplined and vigilant I think would be better left to a machine. It would also free me up to work on new and better strategies.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
We used excel to do our screening in the late 90's and early 2000s. Took all night running the OTCBB and nasdaq through it. To be honest, glad I don't do that anymore. Some freakish long hours.
Have you guys seen NinjaTrader 7's Automated Trading Interface? Think that would work, if I could do the screen manually from within .NET then execute the orders or execute the a strategy on a specific stock?
