Slicing Fundamental Data with a Quant Knife

Our development pipeline is an open book found on the “What’s New” page of our site. We recently added a new complement of fundamental filters that add balance and flexibility in designing trade set-ups.

Our What’s New page displays the new fundamental filters

What type of data yields the best results for investing and trading: fundamental or technical? It’s not even a trick question anymore. Designing a profitable approach to the markets requires technical and fundamental parameters. It’s just that simple.

The market, as a remarkably efficient mechanism,  discounts both types of data. At times the market is focused on fundamental data, other times the market shifts focus to price action.

Instead of guessing what is important at any given time, Trade Ideas studies which parameters in a set-up contribute the most towards the profit of a given trading plan.  The indicator is sometimes price related e.g., position relative to a moving average, other times it’s volume related or even social and fundamental data. Often it is a cluster of 2 – 3 indicators that are clear determinants of a trading plan’s rate of return.

That is why it is important to have all the arrows in your quiver. Trade Ideas recently added the following fundamental data points to help find even more interesting alpha generating signals.  To some clients adding more options for designing trading set-ups can add more complexity.  That’s what makes our Execution Consulting business the most exciting business opportunity in the last several years.  We assess a customer’s trading preferences with a short questionnaire and transparently build a custom set-up and trading plan based on how a customer expects to invest in the market.
