NEW TOP 30 COINTEGRATED STOCK PAIRS POST A BLOWOUT 11.9% PROFIT IN MARCH

April 3, 2020 3:28 pm | PairTrade Finder


PROFIT FROM VOLATILITY BY USING COINTEGRATED STOCK PAIRS

We’ll cut to the chase.  Extreme volatility juices cointegrated stock pairs
trading returns, and market crashes can bring special opportunites.  We can show
you a lot of research studies that support this assertion.

That’s why professional traders and managers are attracted to the stock pair
trading strategy.  Pair Trading, which involves simultaneously entering LONG
(i.e. BUYING) and entering SHORT (i.e. SELLING) two “paired” securities,
provides protection from market crashes, controlled risk, low correlation to the
market averages and ability to generate significant and consistent returns. 
Multiple recent research studies have demonstrated returns to be in the range of
2%-4% per month*, on a 4:1 leverage basis, over more than a decade.

Add in the use of Cointegrated Stock Pairs and the historical returns look even
stronger**.


PAIRTRADE FINDER® PRO’S TOP 30 COINTEGRATED STOCK PAIRS

But we prefer to put our money where our mouth is.  Some of you may know that
when you subscribe to PairTrade Finder® PRO under one of our periodic Special
Offers, we include our Top 30 US Equities Pairs.  We’ve arranged for these 30
cointegrated stock pairs to be auto-loaded into our platform when you boot up
PRO.

How do we find these pairs?

We analyse and over 1,800 US equities with market caps over $2 billion and daily
traded volumes of at least $2 million to find you the best cointegrated stock
pairs for you to trade.  We update this analysis on a more or less quarterly
basis to ensure these pairs stay fresh and their correlations and cointegrations
strong to offer you the highest-probability setups. All pairs must meet strict
additional fundamental correlation criteria and profitability and robustness
measures.


OUR TOP 30 PERFORMANCE FOR MARCH 2020: LIVE SIGNAL RESULTS VS. PREVIOUS
BACKTESTED RESULTS

So how did these cointegrated stock pairs perform in this 20-30% overall market
crash?

We launched these new Top 30 on 1 March 2020.  They have 63-day lookbacks and
2.70 Entry Stretches and 1.0 Exit Stretches.  So they have shorter trade
durations than the old Top 30. Here are the backtest results that led us to
select these pairs:

Top 30 BACKTEST RESULTS from 1 March 2019 to 29 Feb 2020 (Latest Twelve Months
at launch)



99% Win Rate, 3.2x Reward/Risk, profits of $33,189 in a year (at $10k/leg trade
size).  Frankly those are some pretty fantastic looking backtest results.

However, as any seasoned system trader knows, in-sample and out-of-sample
results are very different things.

So here are the:

 TOP 30 LIVE TRADING SIGNALS RESULTS (end-of-day) from 1 March -1 April 2020

(i.e. out-of-sample results that you could have traded live)



24 trades in a month, 75% Win Rate, 2.1x Reward/Risk and over $18,000 of profit
in a month ($10k/leg trade size)…that just demonstrates the extreme market
volatility we experienced in March.

It is sad and frustrating that this volatility is associated with an
unprecedented global health emergency that has been translated into a global
economic emergency.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to all affected by the
Sars-Cov-2 virus.

Nevertheless, as a pair trader, you don’t necessarily need to suffer the 20%-30%
loss that the indices delivered.  Look at the profitability effect of that
volatility on the return on imputed account equity below (as of market close 1
April 2020):



And there you have it.  Live signals from PairTrade Finder® PRO’s Top 30
Cointegrated Stock Pairs for March 2020 delivered 11.9% return on imputed
account equity, a 75% win rate and a 2.1x Reward/Risk ratio and over $18,000 in
profit ($10k/leg trade size)…all in one month.  See disclaimer below.


RELATIVE PERFORMANCE VS. S&P 500: OVER 28% ALPHA GENERATION IN ONE MONTH

Over the same month, the S&P 500 (SPY ETF) lost 16.4%.  That implies the Top 30
generated an alpha (performance relative to the index) of approx. 28.3% for the
month of March.  We find that result quite spectacular.
