About this strategy

Ruby NQ100 M


For thousands of years, the ruby has been considered one of the most valuable gemstones on Earth. It has everything a precious stone should have: magnificent color, excellent hardness and outstanding brilliance. In addition to that, it is an extremely rare gemstone, especially in its finer qualities.


The Name
Ruby: a gemstone
NQ100: it trades Nasdaq-100 stocks.
M: it is designed for manual trading

What to expect
Ruby generates between 5 and 60 limit orders once a day. Positions are held at least one night and a maximum of 12 days.
While trades will be filled during the day it is possible to trade it with a one time effort per day.

WARNING: Do not trade this system if did not fully read and understand all trading instructions. Ignoring some of these instructions may cause severe losses in your trading account.

Remark: This trading system started as a testbed for automatic order entry software. We needed a good trading system to drive the tests. It turned out, that our "test system" was too good to throw it away, so we decided to keep the excellent track record on C2 and simply rename the system. This also explains, why C2s equity curve shows some "sleepy" period before March 2007. We implemented the order entry software before this date and generated mere "test orders". The "true" Ruby system runs, clearly visible, since march 2007.

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.

These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
