Automated Trading Strategy Review – Crude Oil Futures

Crude Auto Trader

Crude Oil has been sideways overall but the moves from highs to lows have been VERY nice in the sense that they are in one straight move. This has been allowing the TREND Auto Trader to really bank some solid moves with this current volatility we are seeing.

The TREND Auto Trader had a great week overall taking a few trades with the large swings in price banking us a solid $530 this past week!

Crude Performance

Crude Oil had a fantastic week all in all banking us a nice profit of $530. We didn’t take a single losing trade which  will throw the stats off a bit but these are the kinds of things we LOVE to see!

Our largest winning trade came in at $270 while the largest losing trade was a whopping $0! We had our average winning trade clock in at $176.67 as well giving us a reward vs. risk average of 176.67 and a total profit factor of our favorite, 99.00!

We are seeing a bit of a slowdown in price with these wide ranges causing the TREND to have to skip a few trades because of the stop size requirement at .60 trades per day but they are firing fast when they trigger at a hold time average of 160.0 minutes.

Crude Executions

Crude took a total of 3 trades this past week for a commission total with multiple contracts of $15. We had no losing trades this past week either which gives us a trade accuracy total of 100%!
