Strategy developer with EasyLanguage
EasyLanguage is TradeStation's proprietary scripting language for building custom indicators, strategies, and RadarScreen columns. Its syntax resembles plain English, making it accessible for traders without a programming background.
A simple moving average crossover strategy can be written in a dozen lines: define your fast and slow averages, check if fast crosses above slow (Buy signal) or below (Sell signal), and set your exit logic.
Once coded, back-test your strategy using TradeStation's Walk-Forward Optimizer to validate across different market regimes. Always review the equity curve, drawdown statistics, and trade-by-trade log before trading live.
