IntroductionHi, I’m Chris White, founder and CEO of EdgeRater LLC, a trading toolssoftware development company based in Seattle.Several years ago I wrote a software program called the ETF TradingBandit with the sole aim to provide its users with actionable highprobability trading signals every day. The signals were derived fromformulas contained in the book ‘High Probability ETF Trading’ byLarry Connors and Cesar Alvarez.In this report I will explain the background behind the software, the strategies and where they camefrom and show which strategy has had an over 85% win rate in each of the last 7 years.The Reference BookAll of the strategies discussed in this document have formulas that were published in the book ‘HighProbability ETF Trading’ by Larry Connors and Cesar Alvarez. The book is available on Amazon, there’seven a Kindle edition available for only 10. The reference book is a recommended read for anyone whodecides to trade the strategies. Not only do the authors give the formulas for the strategies but they alsodiscuss how best to trade them and what to do in various situations, for example what to do if morethan one ticker is signaling a buy.A Brief HistoryAt the time the book was published I had already written a backtesting program called EdgeRater PROand was looking for strategies to test. The strategies in this book were a good fit because:1.2.3.4.The rules are clearly explainedThe strategies use only technical analysis (no fundamentals)The strategies had already been backtested by the authors over a 16-year periodThe strategies have quantifiable/verifiable resultshttps://www.EdgeRater.com

The Strategy RulesThe 7 strategies in the book are named as follows:1.2.3.4.5.6.7.The 3-Day High/Low MethodRSI25 & RSI75R3 StrategyThe %b StrategyMultiple Days Up (MDU) and Multiple Days Down (MDD) StrategyRSI 10/6 & RSI 90/94 StrategyTime-Price-Scale-inEach strategy has a long and a short version. The theme for the long strategies it is to buy long termstrength on a pullback and for the short strategies it is to sell long term weakness on a rally.The long term strength or weakness criteria are the same for all strategies. An ETF is assumed to havelong term strength if it has a daily close above its 200 Day Simple Moving Average and it is assumed tohave long term weakness if it has a daily close below its 200 Day Simple Moving Average.Each strategy determines the short term pullback or rally as described in the following tableStrategyShort term pullback criteriaShort term rally criteria3-Day High/LowConsecutive Lower highs andlower lows*4 period Wilder’s RSI below 25Consecutive higher highs andhigher lows*4 period Wilder’s RSI above 75Consecutive 2 period Wilder’s RSIlowerConsecutive Bollinger’s %B under.2Lower close for 4 out of past 5days*1st unit: 2 period Wilder’s RSIunder 10Consecutive 2 period Wilder’s RSIhigherConsecutive Bollinger’s %B over .81st unit: 2 period Wilder’s RSIunder 251st unit: 2 period Wilder’s RSI over75RSI25 & RSI75R3%bMDU &MDDRSI 10/6 & RSI 90/94**Time-Price-Scale in**Higher close for 4 out of 5 days*1st unit: 2 period Wilder’s RSI over90Notes:* These criteria have an additional 5 period Simple Moving Average condition.** These strategies involve scaling in or averaging down – the short term pullback criteria are only listedfor the first unit.https://www.EdgeRater.com

The Initial ResultsWhen I initially tested these strategies with EdgeRater I was able to verify that my results usingEdgeRater matched the results published in the book. This gave me confidence that I was testing using agood methodology and data set.I then used the same methodology on data that was released after the book was published in order tosee how the strategies continued to perform. The results were impressive:January 1st 2009 to December 31st 2013StrategyEntry/Exit On CloseEntry/Exit Next OpenBasic VersionTradesP/L%Hold%WinTradesP/L%Hold%Win3 Day Hi/Lo Long3 Day Hi/Lo ShortRSI 25 LongRSI 75 ShortR3 LongR3 Short%B Long%B ShortMDD LongMDU ssive %67.00%76.37%65.16%82.28%73.47%3 Day Hi/Lo Long5020.61% 5.380.68%3 Day Hi/Lo Short3170.93% 5.272.87%RSI 25 Long5941.30% 6.984.68%RSI 75 Short2721.24% 9.073.16%R3 Long5051.14% 5.884.55%R3 Short2781.30% 7.275.54%%B Long7280.79% 5.182.28%%B Short3821.15% 5.973.56%MDD Long7490.67% 4.780.91%MDU Short3981.12% 5.174.12%RSI 10/6 Long7660.77% 4.881.98%RSI 90/94 Short3771.07% 5.372.15%TPS Long8071.30% 5.789.59%TPS Short4271.57% 6.580.80%BACKTESTED RESULTS FOR THE PERIOD 1/1/2009-12/31/2013https://www.EdgeRater.com

Note that the book only tested entering and exiting at the close of the day butthat I have tested entering the next open and closing the next open after theentry/exit signals are generated. Both sets of results are shown in the repor ttables.All of the strategies showed good statistics but one in particular, TPS outperformed all the others withan 89% win rate on the long side and an 80% win rate on the short side.ETF Trading Bandit users were able to see the signals for all the strategies each and every day and thenplace trades in their brokerage accounts. At the time, the majority of users were using ThinkOrSwim astheir brokerage but also many were using TradeStation. Because ETF Trading Bandit only gives signals, itdoesn’t matter what brokerage is being used, the thing to focus on is reducing commission costs.The Interview with Steve AlexanderA few months after I released the ETF Trading Bandit, I interviewed one useronline where he shared his real money results from trading the strategies in a 10,000 account. In just one short month he was able to cover the cost of thesoftware. This is a big deal because the software is permanently licensed to auser, meaning there is a one-time payment and the user can keep and use theprogram forever. Also, all the data comes from free online sources so once theinitial payment has been made, the ongoing costs are zero .forever!See my online interview with Steve Alexander here:Watch The InterviewThe Last 7 YearsThe above tables show the 2009-2013 combined results.
