Stockpicker Template: N-day high (Donchian) – Time Exit

StrategyQuantTemplatesStocks

Stockpicker (D1) Builder template: close above the highest high of the last n days. The Builder searches the free parameters and conditions; variant: no regime filter, time exit (exit after N bars).

Stockpicker Template: N-day high (Donchian) – Time Exit

A StrategyQuant X Builder template for the AlgoCloud Stockpicker engine (daily bars, stock groups such as the Dow Jones, S&P 100 or Nasdaq 100). The template fixes the Stockpicker skeleton and one entry idea: close above the highest high of the last n days. The Builder then searches the free parts, so every run produces different strategies.

What the template fixes

• Entry idea: N-day high (Donchian) (close above the highest high of the last n days).
• A market order and a time exit; there is no regime filter.
• Long side only, Stockpicker rules with a position score and a maximum number of open positions.

What the Builder searches

• The parameters of the entry idea, the number of bars to hold (2-30) and the position-score formula.

How to use

1. Builder > Full settings > Data: engine AlgoCloud Stockpicker, a stock group, timeframe D1, in-sample and out-of-sample dates.
2. Full settings > What to build > Strategy from template > choose this template.
3. Start the build, then check the results out of sample and on other groups before any live use.

Tested

Tested in StrategyQuant X 145.3205 with the AlgoCloud Stockpicker engine on the Dow Jones group D1.

Requirements

StrategyQuant X 145.3205 or newer with the AlgoCloud Stockpicker engine and stock-group data in the Data Manager. No custom blocks or random groups are needed.
