Creating An ETF Trading System
There are many options available when a person is looking for an effective ETF trading system. There are many website companies that offer services related to trading systems. They may offer alerts, updates, training, information, etc., to make using a system easier. However, the longer that a person is a trader, the more likely it is that they will develop their own effective system.
The terms "trading system" and "trading strategy" mean two different things. These terms are often interchanged by individuals who are not clear on the difference and have not been involved in ETF trading. When reading advertising by someone who says they "know" ETF trading, this is a good indicator of what they actually know.
Without adding the technical jargon that will make your head explode, an ETF trading system is a group of specific rules to determine your entry and exit points for your ETF. Points are sometimes referred to as signals. So, the alerts that a person is getting from their service is the result of lights going off at the entry and exit points after a program has been fed the rules for your particular ETF.
The analytical tools used to set up those rules are pretty ordinary also. The most common tools used are the Stochastic, Oscillators, Bollinger Bands, Relative Strength, and Moving Averages. The details and information that these programs spit out is called "indicators." When you use at least two indicates from one or more of the tools, you have yourself a system.
The next logical question is what indicators are going to make the most effective system. These is where the expertise of long time traders can be very helpful. The indicators that form the effective system are different for different sectors. This is partly due to the fact that they are used for different sectors and different indicators are more relative to specific sectors.
Many people don't have the time or patience to create their own system. This is where the web services come in handy. Most create programs using the indicators most often pulled from the analytical tools. That doesn't mean that they are more effective, but it does give you a head start with a system. The web service creates the rules that fit specific sectors and the user picks the sector and gets the right indicators for that sector.
Doing the work on one's own will require the same attention to detail and a lot of experimentation. There are however, some rules for the system that should help reduce the risks that are involved in creating your own system. First, the system must consistently have positive returns. Translation, it must make money. When the system has negative returns ten times in a row then you will need to take a hard look at the system and strategy that is being used.
Having a plan in place to reduce risk and limit losses is also important when starting a system. Sticking to the buy and sell limits that the analytical tools have indicated are appropriate will take the personalization out of the trading process and allow a safety net from extreme loss. The system must have stable parameters. Some vectors have very hard to identify patterns, you will want to be aware of the kinds of indicators that appear when there is going to be a drastic reverse. - 23226
