Project’s Overview
In this project, we checked risk-adjusted profitability of technical trading strategies. Details related to this project include:
- Find buy and hold returns for a passive investment strategy
- Find profitability for different technical indicators such as:
- Double moving average (DMA)
- Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA)
- Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
- Bollinger Bands (BB)
- Relative Strength Indicator (RSI)
- Application of factor model to see whether the returns generated by the above indicators are abnormal returns or a compensation for some risk factors
- We created several unique risk factors such as currency value factor, currency volatility factor, and currency momentum
- Further, for each strategy we coded to find the number of trades, total average return per trade, the average number of days in the trade, the annualized daily return, Sharpe index
- Conducted t-tests to see that the profits generated by the technical rules significantly differ from buy-and-hold strategy
Our Stata Code
We have developed easy to use yet robust codes for the above steps. The codes need just a basic understanding of Stata. Further, our comments on each line of code will surely help you in running the code as well as in understanding the process more clearly. We normally share all Stata files, the raw data files, and Stata codes with comments. The purpose is to help researchers to learn and apply these codes on their own. We also try to answer questions that might arise at a later stage when the researcher applies these codes.
Pricing
The code is available for $ $299, plus a $50 for raw data processing (in case the data is not in Stata format and variables are not already constructed). For further details, please contact us at:
