Amibroker Trading Strategies Code For 100+ Profitable Ideas

Amibroker Trading Strategies: Code For 100+ Profitable Ideas

ByOddmund Groette Amibroker

Are you looking for Amibroker trading strategies? Are you looking for Amibroker code to make profitable trading strategies?

If so, we might have exactly what you are looking for!

Since we started this website back in 2012, we have published a “ton” of ideas and strategies – FOR FREE!

(But we also have a subscription service called Monthly Trading Edges.)

However, the articles don’t come with Amibroker code.

Because of this, we decided to make an inexpensive product that compiled the logic in plain English AND Amibroker code in a systematic way so you don’t have to scroll through the hundreds of articles to find what you are looking for.

The strategies are listed one by one – not as a zip file. Some of the strategies have even been slightly improved and changed. The strategies are taken from our list of trading strategies.

Obviously, to make Amibroker trading strategies you need to learn Amibroker. Why use Amibroker?

Why do we use Amibroker?

We are a two-man team and we use both Amibroker and Tradestation. Tradestation might not need any further description as it’s arguably the most used trading platform on the market.

However, Amibroker is 100% customizable and inexpensive. To our knowledge, it’s the cheapest platform you can buy to backtest your ideas. You can take the leap from backtesting to live trading by adding a little code to execute your strategies. We have made an Amibroker course where you can learn both to backtest and trade live with Amibroker and Interactive Brokers.

Amibroker might require a bit more time to learn, but as soon you get the hang of it the options are literally endless and only constrained by your imagination.

Moreover, you can even download the free version to test Amibroker before you buy a lifetime license to use all capabilities.

We have written a more extensive review and summary of Amibroker in this article:
