Trading Systems Rankings

(All Programs)

The trading systems rankings table is currently showing all 266 trading strategies in Attain's entire database. The highlighted programs are in your watchlist. Recommended programs are in BOLD.

Our trading system rankings have developed over the years into a comprehensive tool which ranks commodity trading system and automated trading system performance across over 19 different metrics measuring performance, risk, back test versus forward test deviations, and more. The rankings are designed to measure which systems are the best across several statistics, then see which are consistently among the top ranked on each set of rankings - and therefore the best overall.

The page defaults to showing page 1 of Attain's All Programs list of 266 programs. You can view the additional pages of programs on this list by using the pagination links or 'next' arrow at the bottom of the table. To view different lists, use the Recommended or Most Searched links in the blue 'Filter By' column on the left. Click on All Programs in the same blue 'Filter By' column to view a listing of all 1 programs in our database, or use the 'search' box on the top left of the page to find a specific program.

The Watchlist link will change the table to show only those programs in saved your watchlist. To add programs to your watchlist, place a check in the box to the left of each Trading System's name, and then click the 'Add to Watchlist' button at the bottom of the table. You can also 'Compare' the checked programs, jump to your watchlist in your MyAttain screen, or Create a Portfolio with the programs you have checked.

You can also use the blue 'Filter By' column to change the period on which the performance statistics are run (12mos, 36mos, 5yrs, 10yrs, All Time), sort the table by different metrics, and filter out systems by the minimum, strategy type, or correlation with the stock market.

The statistics on this page are calculated via the combination of three hypothetical data sets: 1. Backtested, 2. Real-Time, and where available 3. Client Fills.

Backtested Performance is calculated by running a trading system backwards in time, and seeing what trades would have been done in the past when applied to backadjusted data. Real-Time performance is calculated by running the trading system forwards on data each and every day, and logging the trades as they happen in real time day after day. Client Fills performance is calculated by running the trading system on LIVE tick data for actual clients and tracking the actual buy and sell prices those clients trading the system receive in their account.
