Transcript:
That’s right, guys. You have a trading strategy and you want to test it on many coins because you want to make sure that it is a robust strategy. That means you need to go through many coins and capture the data. But how do you do that? Because until today, you have to go to the strategy tester and you have to go to the list of trades and then download all of the CSVs and then somehow consolidate them.
It’s not fun, okay? So I came up with a better solution. I have created a Chrome extension that captures the data while you’re clicking through the charts. Much better, right? This is how it works. You have your strategy on the screen.
You open the strategy tester and you make sure you are in the performance summary because that’s where all the numbers are that the plugin will read for you. Now you click on the plugin, you click start, and as you can see, it starts collecting data. So I press the space bar and every time I press the space bar and every time I press the space bar trading view will go to the next chart but also at the same time my extension the plugin here will capture the data so every time I press space it will capture the data how the strategy performs on that coin and then once I’m done I can click here I can
click stop copy the data go to your spreadsheet and paste the data. And ta-da, now you have all the data you need to analyze the performance of your strategy on all of these coins and more. It really only depends on how many coins you wanna go through, but there is no limit. Isn’t that nice, guys? Because now we can run many strategies on the same coins and we can compare the strategies with each other and we can pick the one that is most robust meaning that it works on many coins not just a couple of them
and back in your spreadsheet you can have one tab for each strategy and you can calculate the numbers that you care about and see which strategy is the best one overall amazing but how do you get started well by watching this video until the end because there are a lot of details you must know so that you can fix all of the small issues if they happen.
Okay, so I’m going to show you where to find the extension, how to use it, how to react if TradingView changes the user interface, because there are selectors, so it knows where the data is. You can change that. The plugin has features for that. And also how to get in touch with me and the community in case you have ideas on how to improve this extension because i’m here to make people better with trading strategies which is why it’s so important to collect the data on multiple coins and assets so you can create a good strategy right
so that’s why this tool is very very important in the process okay if you have great ideas come to the community and i might even implement your ideas because i’m here to help everybody right having said all of that i I’m not a financial advisor. This is not a financial advice video. And crypto is risky.
You can lose all of your money, right? You can lose all of your money, but that is why you subscribe to this freaking channel. You watch every video because then your chances of success are at an all-time high. But you know all of that already if you’re a subscriber. So with all of that in mind, let’s get started.
Okay, first thing we need to know is where to find the extension well in the chrome extension store problem is only that is not yet approved because i just added it today and i was not aware that this process takes time i thought it’s very quick some ai will look at it but it will look something like this the icon will be like this there will be a link down below this video and then you click on add to chrome to add it to your extensions click the puzzle piece and then click on the pin because you need it to be up there because you need to be able to click on it and use all the buttons that
it has okay so that’s how you add it to your chrome by the time you’re watching this video it might already be approved okay just click the link down below and add it to chrome let’s go to the next step okay now we have the extension in Chrome, but how to use it? Very simple. And I’m going to give you a couple of pro tips as well when it comes to TradingView.
So make sure to open your watch list over here with this icon, and then make sure to create a new list. If you have the subscription for that, definitely helps because you want to have a list of symbols that is for the testing purposes and that list should be quite strictly managed because you want all the strategies to be tested on the same coins right so my list is called strategy testing list and these coins have been added by me because they are important but also because they have some edge cases like trx or
pepe right So I want to have everything there, right? From meme coins to big coins to new coins, everything. So you’re making a list, you’re checking it twice, and you’re adding coins that are naughty and nice. So that I can see that my strategy is robust on all of these coins. Now, how do you add coins to this list? You simply click on the plus icon here and you search for the one that you want and you click the plus icon here and then they will appear on the right side. So make sure to create your list with the coins that you want to test with.
Okay, once you have the list of coins, then turn on your strategy. Make sure you have only one strategy turned on. Click on the show button and automatically TradingView will open the strategy tester. Make sure to go to the performance summary because this is where the plugin will take the numbers from and now you’re ready to collect the data now click on the extension and if you open this for the first time then make sure to click on save selectors because otherwise you might run into some issues just for the first time ever otherwise Otherwise, you don’t have to do that. So if you open this the second time, the third, the hundredth time,
then simply click on it and click on start. And you can see it already collected one data point and click here. And now click space or press space, right? And you always wait until the number goes up. You see, I press space. It says three. I press space. It says four. I press space. It says five.
I don’t press space too quickly three i press space it says four i press space it says five i don’t press space too quickly because then it doesn’t have enough time to gather the data here from the performance summary if you press too quickly it will end up in not having those numbers it’s not the end of the world and i will show you what happens and how to fix it but it’s just waste of time right so if i click too quickly here then it might not have captured the data yet because it needs some time to load here right so let’s click on the plugin again and click stop and now click on copy data that will copy to the clipboard and now when you go to a google sheet
and you just open a new tab you can paste the data and as you can see i have an issue with the render line item because i press space too quickly but i can fix that very fast simply click on render right to have it open then go to the extension click start click stop click copy data because when you click start it already collects the one that is open in the moment right go back to the sheet and paste the data and as you can see here this is the line item that i just need to replace and now i have a full list of numbers that I can use for my analysis.
Okay. And this list can be as long as you like. Okay. Like you can go bananas. You can have hundreds of coins. Yes, you have to click the space bar, but it’s still faster than any other method before this. So far, so good. But what happens if the user interface of TradingView somehow changes and the plugin doesn’t know where to get the data from first of all click save selectors if you forgot to do that because that could be the issue right but second of all you can change these selectors here which are obviously given by design by
default by me and by the way once trading view changes this i will update the plugin most likely but if you don’t want to wait for me okay and you want to make sure that all of this data is captured for you at any point in time you have control over this you can simply say okay where is the ticker symbol right where is the net profit where is the total trades and so on and i want to copy the selector so that the plugin knows what to do so it’s quite simple you go to chrome and let’s say you want this number to be captured right then you right
click on it and then you click on inspect, okay? And then it will open up the inspector. And as you can see, this is the element where the number is, right? So right click on it, go to copy and click on copy selector, okay? Copy selector. And then you can go here and you can replace this selector. This was net profit, right? Put it here and then click on save selectors, okay? And you can do the exact same thing with all the other metrics that the extension is collecting.
Of course, it’s not collecting all the numbers in the performance summary, but the ones that you see here, they will be collected. For example, max drawdown is somewhere here and this is the one, right? Inspect it, then you hover over it here.
You see that the one right click copy copy selector go here replace this selector here click on save selectors right and from that moment on it will use that as the selector now you can see why this is very powerful because even if trading view changes the interface somehow you can always find the numbers by just updating the selector okay but how do i analyze these numbers now that I have them, what do I look at, right? Well, I can tell you a couple of things, but of course, this is up to you to be creative. So you have all of these numbers, right? But you need to somehow come up with an
idea of how to look at these numbers so that you can decide for yourself, right? What is better? Okay, is this better, this, this or this, right? And so how do you do that? Well, I look at the drawdown. I really care about the drawdown a lot, okay? Because I have quite some funds in crypto and I don’t want to lose my money, right? I don’t want to suddenly end up having less than before, right? That’s not the plan.
So even if I make less profit than I could, I protect my money as much as I can, right? You might be different, okay? You might want to take more risk, okay? So really that’s why these metrics that I will show you now are not the same for everybody right so what i do right i go through this list and i say okay is it above 50 drawdown then i would not trade that coin i would not even put my money into this asset okay so i would not trade with the gaussian channel strategy i would not trade ethereum for example right i will not trade with the Gaussian channel strategy. I would not trade Ethereum, for example, right?
I would not trade Fetch.ai with this strategy, right? I would not trade Dogecoin, right? So I then say, okay, if I trade the rest of the coins, how much money can I make when it comes to the risk-adjusted way to calculate this, right? So I have another metric here where I basically say, if I put, you know, a thousand bucks in each coin and then I multiply with the net profit and then I make sure to subtract the risk and so on then you know some number comes out and then I make sure to compare the strategies like that. But you might want to
do other things right so if I go to the super trend you can see also there are a couple of coins that have higher than 50% drawdown okay so those coins I shall not invest in but the others I can invest in right so the others I can invest in, right? So the others can produce this profit that you see here with the risk that you see here, right? So you can come up with something that helps you.
Now, for example, the improved Gaussian channel strategy has a bit less of these over 50% drawdowns, which is quite nice. So I can only, I have to only ignore these coins, right? And I can invest in the rest of them. So it looks like it’s a better strategy overall than the normal Gaussian channel version, right? And I can invest in the rest of them.
So it looks like it’s a better strategy overall than the normal Gaussian channel version, right? And if you’re not sure what I’m freaking talking about, then watch the video that I will put up here right now because it’s where I use AI to improve an existing strategy by adding another indicator to it and telling it how to use it. It’s very nice, okay? You will love that video as well.
But you see what I’m saying, right? So I don’t wanna completely tell like do exactly like this because everyone is different. You might want to take more risk or you really care about the profit factor, or you really care about having a lot of winning trades because it’s psychologically important often to have that, or you don’t care about that, but you care about having more trades or God knows.
Okay. And again, if you need more numbers, let me know. I might be able to add them to the extension. But that is how I kind of think about it. And then what I do is I take the number, whichever number I came up with, right, to analyze this and I sort these tabs, right? So for example, this is the highest number.
So I put it at the beginning, right? Then this is the second highest number, right? So now I know based on whichever metric you have chosen to go for, right, or combination of metrics, then you have a sorting and you say, okay, this is the best strategy based on the numbers, right? This is the second best, this is the third best, okay? And this way you can pick the best strategy that you have available, okay? For yourself based on the metrics that you’ve been looking at. And it’s not that hard, okay? Like now that you have the easy way to collect the data and
put it in a spreadsheet, can get creative right and that is why i wanted to post this video as fast as possible because a lot of you have this problem and you need to capture this data from multiple coins so now you can go bananas right you can use my videos to create a strategy from an indicator to improve the strategy but then to also test the strategy on a lot of coins and then have variations of the strategy and see which one is better right because sometimes you have strategies that come with some parameters. Like for example,
the Gaussian channel has a couple of parameters. And if you change those parameters, right? You make this happen, for example, HL2 and you put number two here, then it becomes a bit better, it has a bit better numbers, but is it better just on Bitcoin or is it also better on all the other coins right and now you know why this is so powerful because now i can run the numbers right and i can see which one is better based on my metrics what i care about okay and i care about risk management i really don’t
like to lose my money okay and so it depends are you on the super risky side you want to make as much money as possible no matter how high the risk is, then you would calculate differently, right? Are you on the other side, like me, where you want to protect your money as much as possible and make the money that results from that, right? Or are you somewhere in the middle, right? And that’s what will determine how you calculate these numbers for yourself in your own sheet, okay? I want to give you a template for that and it’s linked down below.
And the simple reason for that is it’s linked down below and the simple reason for that is because if you don’t set this to the us american standard then the dot will not be interpreted as a comma but it should be right so i want to make sure you’re using exactly this template and you can copy it and you can use it for yourself you do not need to click on access rights okay you don’t need access rights the only thing you need to do is click on file, click on make a copy, and then you have your own version and you can play with that, okay?
Do not click on give me access rights because I will not give you access rights and you don’t need it also, okay? I got hundreds and hundreds of emails from Google that people want access rights to my AI templates and everything, but you don’t need it. Just copy it, okay? Like it’s easy. Okay, having said all of that, I hope you see how powerful it is, what I’m showing you in this video.
And now you have all the tools you need to make it happen, guys, okay? You can create a strategy, there is a video. You can improve the strategy, there is a video. You can analyze the strategy with this video, okay? And you can automate the freaking strategy with the video I’m putting at the end of this one, okay? Guys, it doesn’t get much easier than that.
I mean, the only way it could get easier is if you’re part of the auto trading masterclass. But the problem is, mate, it’s very expensive and it’s only for people who have larger portfolio, blah, blah, blah, okay? You don’t need it until you need it, okay? Use all the free information, watch all of my videos you’ll be fine unless you want to have access to my knowledge to my process to my strategies to my community to my templates for analyzing strategies building portfolios to the community to me you get the idea right then
fine apply it’s good but don’t apply if your portfolio is below 25k because you will need that to build a proper risk adjusted portfolio okay with. With all of that in mind, I want you to also know that you can take a strategy from TradingView and you can fully automatically execute it.
