CQG Trading System Package

The CQG Trading System Package includes these features:

  • Entry Signal Evaluator: Use the Entry Signal Evaluator to analyze the conjunction of a buy-sell signal (created as conditions) with a specific time frame applied to a commodity. Evaluate the effectiveness of buy and sell conditions. This easy-to-use tool helps traders and analysts take the guesswork out of trading signals.

  • Trade System: Define parameters for the entry signal, exit signal, and more by creating a trade system over any time frame. Traders can also set up CQG Alerts to open and close positions in real time when a notification is triggered.

  • Trade System Optimizer: Optimize your workflow by using the Trade System Optimizer, a valuable trading tool that tests the results of trading systems running different settings and the combination of parameters included in trade signals. By analyzing the results, traders can determine which set of user-defined parameter values yielded the best result on a specific trading system applied to defined historical chart data.
