  1. Template:StrategyTable

The `Template:StrategyTable` is a powerful and versatile tool within the MediaWiki environment, specifically designed for presenting trading and investment strategies in a clear, organized, and easily digestible format. This article provides a comprehensive guide to using this template, geared towards beginners with little to no prior experience with MediaWiki or strategy documentation. We will cover its purpose, structure, parameters, examples, advanced usage, troubleshooting, and best practices. Understanding and utilizing this template effectively will significantly enhance the quality and readability of strategy articles on this wiki.

Purpose and Benefits

The primary goal of `Template:StrategyTable` is to standardize the presentation of trading strategies. Before this template, strategy descriptions often varied wildly in format, making it difficult for readers to quickly grasp the key elements of each strategy. This inconsistency hindered comparison and understanding. The `StrategyTable` template addresses this problem by providing a structured framework.

Here are the key benefits of using this template:

  • **Standardization:** Ensures all strategies are presented with the same core information.
  • **Readability:** A consistent layout improves comprehension and allows readers to quickly locate specific details.
  • **Comparability:** Makes it easier to compare different strategies side-by-side.
  • **Maintainability:** Simplifies updates and modifications to strategy documentation.
  • **Professional Appearance:** Enhances the overall quality and credibility of the wiki.
  • **Searchability:** Consistent parameters improve the ability to search for specific strategy characteristics.

Template Structure and Parameters

The `Template:StrategyTable` is built around a set of named parameters that define the different aspects of a strategy. These parameters are used to populate the table with relevant information. Here's a breakdown of each parameter:

  • `StrategyName`: (Required) The name of the trading strategy. This should be concise and descriptive. Examples: "Moving Average Crossover", "Fibonacci Retracement", "Bollinger Band Squeeze".
  • `StrategyType`: (Required) Categorizes the strategy. Possible values include: "Trend Following", "Mean Reversion", "Breakout", "Scalping", "Swing Trading", "Position Trading", "Arbitrage", "Momentum Trading". Trading Styles
  • `TimeFrame`: (Required) The recommended time frame for applying the strategy. Examples: "5-minute", "15-minute", "1-hour", "Daily", "Weekly". Time Frames in Trading
  • `AssetClass`: (Required) The type of asset the strategy is best suited for. Examples: "Forex", "Stocks", "Cryptocurrencies", "Commodities", "Indices". Asset Classes
  • `Indicators`: (Required) A comma-separated list of technical indicators used in the strategy. Examples: "Moving Averages, RSI, MACD", "Fibonacci Retracements, Support and Resistance". Technical Indicators
  • `EntryRules`: (Required) A detailed description of the criteria for entering a trade. Be specific and include conditions.
  • `ExitRules`: (Required) A detailed description of the criteria for exiting a trade, including both profit targets and stop-loss levels.
  • `RiskRewardRatio`: (Optional) The typical risk-reward ratio associated with the strategy. Example: "1:2", "1:3". Risk Management
  • `WinRate`: (Optional) The expected win rate of the strategy (expressed as a percentage). Example: "60%", "55%".
  • `CapitalRequired`: (Optional) The minimum capital required to effectively use the strategy. Example: "$1000", "$500". Capital Allocation
  • `BacktestResults`: (Optional) A summary of backtesting results, including the period tested and the overall performance. Backtesting
  • `Notes`: (Optional) Any additional notes or considerations regarding the strategy. This can include potential drawbacks, variations, or optimization tips.
  • `Image`: (Optional) A URL to an image illustrating the strategy. This could be a chart example.
  • `Link`: (Optional) A URL to an external resource providing more information about the strategy.

Basic Usage Example

Here's a simple example of how to use the `Template:StrategyTable` to document a basic Moving Average Crossover strategy:

```wiki Template loop detected: Template:StrategyTable ```

This code will render a neatly formatted table displaying the information provided.

Advanced Usage and Customization

The `Template:StrategyTable` can be further customized to meet specific needs.

  • **Multiple Indicators:** Use a comma-separated list to include multiple indicators in the `Indicators` parameter. For example: `Indicators = RSI, MACD, Volume`.
  • **Detailed Rules:** Provide highly detailed and specific entry and exit rules. Use bullet points or numbered lists within the `EntryRules` and `ExitRules` parameters for clarity.
  • **Image Integration:** Use the `Image` parameter to include a relevant chart or diagram. Ensure the image is properly licensed and linked.
  • **External Links:** Use the `Link` parameter to provide links to external resources, such as articles, videos, or software tools.
  • **Conditional Formatting (Limited):** While the template doesn’t directly support complex conditional formatting, you can use wiki markup within the `Notes` or `BacktestResults` parameters to highlight important information.

Example: Fibonacci Retracement Strategy

```wiki Template loop detected: Template:StrategyTable ```

Troubleshooting and Common Issues

  • **Template Not Rendering:** Double-check the spelling of the template name (`Template:StrategyTable`). Ensure you are using the correct syntax for calling the template.
  • **Missing Parameters:** The `StrategyName`, `StrategyType`, `TimeFrame`, `AssetClass`, `Indicators`, `EntryRules`, and `ExitRules` parameters are *required*. If any of these are missing, the template will not render correctly.
  • **Incorrect Parameter Values:** Ensure the values you provide for each parameter are appropriate and formatted correctly. For example, the `WinRate` should be a percentage.
  • **Formatting Issues:** Use standard wiki markup for formatting text within the parameters. Avoid using HTML tags.
  • **Image Not Displaying:** Verify that the image URL is correct and that the image is accessible. Ensure the image is properly licensed for use on the wiki.
  • **Table Alignment:** The table width is automatically adjusted. If you encounter alignment issues, consider adjusting the content within the parameters.

Best Practices

  • **Be Concise:** Keep descriptions brief and to the point. Use clear and concise language.
  • **Be Specific:** Provide detailed entry and exit rules. Avoid vague or ambiguous statements.
  • **Use Consistent Terminology:** Use consistent terminology throughout the strategy description.
  • **Backtest Your Strategies:** Always backtest your strategies before using them in live trading. Include the backtesting results in the `BacktestResults` parameter.
  • **Manage Risk:** Always use a stop-loss order to limit your potential losses. Include stop-loss levels in the `ExitRules` parameter.
  • **Update Regularly:** Keep your strategy documentation up-to-date. Revise the template as needed to reflect changes in the strategy.
  • **Cross-Reference:** Link to other relevant pages on the wiki, such as Candlestick Patterns, Chart Patterns, Market Sentiment, and Trading Psychology.
  • **Cite Sources:** If you are referencing external sources, be sure to cite them appropriately.
  • **Consider variations:** Document any common variations or adaptations of the strategy within the `Notes` section.
  • **Understand Market Conditions:** Specify the market conditions where the strategy performs best (e.g., trending, ranging, volatile). Market Analysis
  • **Factor in trading costs**: Mention if the strategy accounts for spread, commission and slippage. Trading Costs
  • **Don't promise results.** Strategies are not guaranteed to be profitable. Indicate that past performance is not indicative of future results.
