Agenda
Artificial Intelligence
for Traders
What is “Artificial Intelligence?”
What is Artificial Intelligence?
‘A computer algorithm that combines Inputs to find Profitable Combinations as Outputs (Signals)’
How it Works
We start with a good Strategy.
We identify INPUTS -- Systems, Indicators, and Measurements that we think have the potential to improve performance if used in the right combination.
Measurements on Charts
How it Works
We add an A.I. Component into our Strategy. Next, our Inputs are added -- Indicators, Systems, and True/False Values (or Booleans.)
How it Works
We then TRAIN the A.I. Component on the Inputs to determine conditions that improve profitability by scoring MILLIONS of combinations. The result is a TRAINED COMPONENT that allows only the most profitable Signals to be used.
ARM5 has 3 A.I. Strategy Components
• Neural Network
• Genetic Algorithm
• Consensus Block
Neural Network
The Neural Network combines a SMALL group of inputs by assigning “weights” that identify a profitable outcome. Excellent for “Smooth” Relationships, like Volatility vs. Price Change vs. Volume Change.
NN Score
Genetic Algorithm
The Genetic Algorithm combines MANY inputs (called “Genes”) to form “Chromosomes” which are tested for profitability. The GA is excellent for finding Profitable Rules formed by specific combinations of Inputs from a large number of possible combinations.
GA Signals
Consensus Block
The Consensus Block determines how profitable indicators are in combination with other indicators. Useful for “Data Mining” and understanding key relationships.

ARM5: Breakthroughs
on the Genetic Algorithm
Enhancing the GA
In 2016, we focused on our Genetic Algorithm and added numerous MAJOR enhancements.
For example...
Improvements to the GA
Embedded Filters FILTERS can be specified so training happens ONLY when certain conditions are True, making the GA more specialized.
Train in the up-trend
zones.
Filters in the GA limit training to specific conditions
Improvements to the GA
Incremental Training The GA can now run “Incremental Training” so all results we see are in “Out of Sample Data.”
As a result of these improvements, we are seeing results that are better than any we have ever seen before.

Improving the Secret Sauce
We applied the GA to our Secret Sauce Heikin Ashi 2 Strategy, using: 10 Year Training (10/05 – 10/15) 1 Year Forward Test (10/15 – 10/16) The Improvement is ASTOUNDING. PPT went from -0.25 to +1.77. Hit Rate and Profit per Trade are almost IDENTICAL in the Forward Test (out-of-sample) data compared to the Back Test.
Training Period
A GA for Liquid Stocks
We trained this GA on 20 very liquid stocks.
Forward Test Results: 84.6% Accuracy and 3.27% Profit per Trade.
This is VERY close to our UTM goal (that you will learn about shortly).
RTM Performance
• These RTM Strategies use an RSI and MA FILTER in the GA.
• It’s Monthly Incremental, so everything is out of sample!
• The 1st Strategy generates 20% a year.
• The 2nd Strategy uses a specialized Trade Plan and generates 30% a year, again, in out of sample data.
All out of sample due to monthly
incremental training.
Average Return: 30% per Year

ARM5 Indicators!
ARM5 Indicators can be plotted just like any OmniTrader (or VisualTrader) indicator.
Neural Network Indicators
Our A.I. indicators can be used for...
• Visual Confirmation
• Filters in Strategies
• Focus List Sorting
Neural Network Indicators provide Smooth indication of ideal entry points.
High Probability of a “Reversion” to
the upside.
Just Released!
Genetic Algorithm Indicators identify the probability of movement using Rules found in the GA process.

Curved Trend Lines
The Valid Trend Line System was inspired by the work of the late J.M. Hurst. It’s a Nirvana Club exclusive in OmniTrader and VisualTrader.
VTL-B Signals identified nearly every turn.
