In this course, we will teach AmiBroker users how to generate — and semi or fully automate — buy and sell signals for multi-strategy, multi-system and portfolio-level trading and investing. The approach covered in this course is really designed for simpler trade automation and active trading or investing system diversification for anyone.

The major objective of this Systematic Investors Group course is to train users of the AmiBroker platform into how they can integrate AmiBroker with a new and unique tool, called Alera Portfolio Manager or APM for short.

APM allows users to remove the complexities of broker integration for semi and fully automated, multi-strategy and especially portfolio-level trading and investing. By removing the broker complexities, users are free to concentrate their efforts on developing strategies (or using already developed strategies) without having to worry about much else.

In this course we will explore how relatively easy it is to generate and process multiple independent trading strategies or investing strategy signals while using only one brokerage account, allowing us to manage and diversify portfolios and to reduce the effort and time spent daily. All of this can be accomplished while considerably minimizing or eliminating potential order entry errors on the order entry and exit workflow process side.

(Two trading strategy implementation examples along with code are provided for instructional purposes only, within the course – RSI-2 Reversion Strategy using limit orders, and, a Simple MACD Strategy using MOC/MOO orders).
