NightTrader ES

An automated trading strategy for the Tradestation, NinjaTrader 8, and MultiCharts platforms, that takes advantage of the tendency for smooth night time trends on the long side. This strategy provides diversity to day trading since there are many days where the market will chop intra-day or move down and the long trades that exited at the end of the day may have done really well if held overnight.

 

The day trade session can be seen as a "traffic jam". Margins are lower and liquidity is higher. At night, the "road clears" and the trends can be smoother. Initial entries for this strategy are taken during the evening session and can hold positions for several days. This strategy can work on all stock indexes but has the smoothest equity curve on the E-mini S&P and E-mini Dow. This strategy was developed in mid 2018 based on this observable pattern since 2016 and tests will since 2009.
