HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE

No tricks - Performance metrics include commissions and slippage. Trades frequently. In a 7 year historical analysis the system generated over 4,000 trades for an average of 3 trades per trading day.

NinjaTrader® has two ways to backtest: Strategy Analyzer® and Market Replay®. Strategy Analyzer® is great for backtesting long periods of time. Market Replay® is very accurate but takes a long time to backtest and consequently is better for a close up look at shorter periods of time. Here's how the VX9 strategy performs in Market Replay® trading the E-mini Nasdaq-100 index futures contract. Results are for trading each contract for the full 3 months of their lives.
One, sometimes two contracts per trade. Commissions and slippage included.

The micro e-mini Nasdaq-100:

Compounding

The performance data presented assumes that the system continues to trade one (and sometimes two) contract(s) the entire time even though there's enough equity built over time to trade more contracts. Instead of always using the same number of contracts we can take advantage of account growth by allocating more contracts to trades.

How many contracts should we add for growth?

As the index increases the risk of holding contracts increases. A 1% correction in the calendar year 2010 would be 1% of a NASDAQ index valued at 2,000, 20 points at $20 a point which translates to $400 for the NQ. But in the year 2021 a 1% move in the NASDAQ index valued at 15,000 is 150 points at $20 a point which translates to $3,000 for the NQ. Because of this we would not want to add contracts for a fixed increase of equity gained. A 1% move in 2010 would have been $400 and in 2021 its $3,000.  We also want to take into consideration the value of the index when considering how many contracts to add so that we avoid over allocating the account. This formula is more conservative in adding contracts to the progression as it respects this risk.

This simulation is designed to take the price of the index into consideration when using equity build up to determine additional contracts.

Small Accounts

Small accounts can trade the MNQ (the micro E-mini Nasdaq) using the VX9.  Below we see results trading 1 sometimes 2 MNQ contracts. Slippage and commission included.

The best way to grow a small account is by reinvesting the gains back into the system.  In the example below the system started with a single MNQ contract per trade and added a MNQ contract for every $5,000 of equity the system returned in profits.  For the drawdown periods, the number of contracts traded is drawn down with it.  Trading beginning May 2019, when the MNQ was introduced. Slippage and commission included.

The VX9 has 2 possible entries, but in the example above we set the 2nd entry to zero contracts and never take the 2nd, even better, trade entry. 

Monthly Income

The VX9 can be run in a conservative mode that focuses on monthly returns.  In these examples we'll continue to use the micro contract, the MNQ contract that specifies a $2 point value.
Here we see the AtsVX9 setup with a monthly PnL template (VX9_MNQ_MPnL2.xml included) trading "5 plus 5" MNQ contracts. 5 contracts for entry 1, and 5 for entry 2. Slippage and commission included.

MPnL 5+5:

The AtsVX9_MNQ_MPnLID template (included) is a more aggressive version that goes for more trades... and gets more profit while still returning a profit every month.
MPnLID 5+5.  Slippage and commission included.

Another way to go is start trading with 5 MNQ contracts and add a contract when the equity grows by an amount equal to 15% of the current contract price. For example, if the contract is trading at 10,000 then when we gain $1,500 in equity we add a contract. 
AtsVX9_MNQ_MPnLID: 5 contracts. Compound progressively at 15%: Slippage and commission included.

There's no minimum contract requirement. You can trade as few as one contract.
