Strategy Backtester
Backtesting: One Percent a Week
Author: Glitch
This strategy runs on daily TQQQ data, attempting to capture a one percent gain per week. Since it legally "peeks" into the future to determine if the next bar is the end or beginning of the week, it doesn't produce alerts. Additionally, it peeks at Monday's open price, and places a limit buy order 1% below the open. So, if you trade this, keep that in mind and watch the Monday open, quickly placing your limit buy 1% below the open. The next day, place a 1% profit target GTC, and if the position profit goes below 0.5%, make this a breakeven exit. Finally, if the position is open by end of week exit it at Friday's close.
