Trading System Logic
This post presents a discretionary trading system optimised to trade during the Regular Trading Hours (RTH) session of the Micro E-mini Nasdaq futures contract (MNQ). The entire process from development and backtesting to real-time implementation of the system includes consideration of commission costs for each trade.
The strategy is based on two key principles:
- The identification of a congestion;
- The confirmation of the break-up by closing above the levels enclosing the congestion.
A distinctive feature of this system is the total absence of technical indicators. This choice makes it possible to maintain a clean chart free of elements that could generate visual ambiguity or decision-making delays. Trading is based exclusively on price action, allowing a direct reading of the market structure and a more effective reactivity to its changes. The focus is therefore solely on price behaviour, eliminating anything that might hinder rapid and objective decision-making.
Money Management
To transform this strategy from a theoretical concept to an operational tool, all the essential technical parameters are provided in the post:
- take profit;
- stop loss;
- discretionary trailing stop option.
These elements are not mere accessories, but constitute the functional architecture of the system, allowing for rigorous and replicable application over time. The integration between the strategy’s structural logic and its quantitative component guarantees operational robustness and adherence to real market conditions. In particular, the discretionary trailing stop offers flexible position management, useful both to consolidate small profits in the event of a reversal and to quickly contain losses.
Offering these parameters means making available to the reader not just an idea, but a tested and complete system, ready to be analysed, adapted and implemented with awareness.
