  1. Template:StrategyTemplate

Template:StrategyTemplate is a standardized template used on this wiki to document and present trading strategies in a clear, concise, and consistent manner. This ensures that all strategy articles follow a uniform structure, making it easier for users to understand, evaluate, and implement different approaches to financial markets. This article details the purpose of the template, its various parameters, how to use it, and best practices for creating high-quality strategy documentation. It is aimed at beginner and intermediate wiki contributors, as well as traders looking to understand how strategies are presented on this platform. Understanding this template is crucial for both contributing new strategies and effectively utilizing the information available on this wiki.

Purpose

The primary goal of the `StrategyTemplate` is to standardize strategy documentation. Without a consistent format, strategy articles can become disorganized, difficult to navigate, and lack crucial information. This template addresses these issues by providing a pre-defined structure that prompts contributors to include essential details about a strategy, such as its underlying principles, entry and exit rules, risk management guidelines, and performance characteristics. Standardization enhances readability and allows for easier comparison between different strategies. It also facilitates the development of tools and features that can automatically analyze and categorize strategies based on their documented parameters. Ultimately, this leads to a more valuable and user-friendly resource for the trading community. Think of it as a blueprint for presenting a well-defined trading system.

Template Parameters

The `StrategyTemplate` utilizes a range of parameters, each designed to capture a specific aspect of the trading strategy. These parameters are entered into the template when creating or editing a strategy article. Here's a detailed breakdown of each parameter:

  • Name (Required): The official name of the trading strategy. This should be concise and descriptive. Example: "Moving Average Crossover".
  • Image (Optional): A visual representation of the strategy, such as a chart illustrating the entry and exit points. Use a relevant and clear image. File names should be descriptive (e.g., "MovingAverageCrossover.png").
  • ImageCaption (Optional): A brief caption explaining the image.
  • Type (Required): Categorizes the strategy based on its core approach. Common values include: Trend Following, Mean Reversion, Breakout, Scalping, Swing Trading, Position Trading, Arbitrage, Momentum Trading, Counter-Trend Trading. Choose the most appropriate category.

  • ExitRules (Required): A detailed description of the conditions that trigger the closing of a trade (i.e., exiting the market). This should cover both profit-taking and stop-loss levels. Include specific rules for both.
