Advanced Features for Complex Strategies
- Quagensia N Edition has over 2,650 functions built in (view complete list), and Quagensia T Edition has over 1,000 functions built in (view complete list). Some functions are "action functions" that can do things like submit orders, set up money management rules, draw on the chart, or emit other kinds of output from your trading strategy such as writing information to a file, writing information to the output window of the trading platform, making sounds, displaying alerts, and more. Other functions are "expression functions" that return data from the trading platform or do calculations and return the results.
- Quagensia N Edition has complete support for "advanced managed order handling". Your strategy can submit an order that is set to be "Live Until Cancelled", and when this order is first sent to the "When OnOrderUpdate Occurs" section by the NinjaTrader platform your strategy can set a no-code Internal Variable of type “NinjaScript Order Object” to the Order. Your strategy can then monitor the order, cancel the order, or change the order's stop price, limit price, or quantity. And all of this can be done when a button is clicked or in the "When OnExecutionUpdate Occurs" or "When OnOrderUpdate Occurs" sections of your strategy to create much more powerful trading logic than can be created in the "When Bar Updates" section alone.
- Add no-code trading logic to your Quagensia N Edition Strategy that is executed when different kinds of advanced events occur by adding it to the no-code sections of your strategy whose trading logic is executed when those events occur. Advanced no-code sections include the When OnOrderUpdate Occurs, When OnExecutionUpdate Occurs, When OnPositionUpdate Occurs, When OnAccountItemUpdate Occurs, When OnMarketData Occurs, When OnMarketDepth Occurs, When OnFundamentalData Occurs, When OnConnectionStatusUpdate Occurs, When NinjaTrader® ATM Strategy Callback Occurs, and When OnOrderTrace Occurs sections.
- Create custom Quagensia Functions without programming, then call them from your Quagensia Strategies to ensure that you are using identical trading logic in all of them. You can even call Quagensia Functions from other Quagensia Functions, which allows you to build an increasingly powerful library of trading logic components that grows with you. Quagensia Functions are extremely easy to create by simply copying and pasting trading logic from a trading strategy into a Quagensia Function, or you can create them from scratch. Advanced users will also appreciate advanced capabilities like passing variables by reference, the ability to put constraints on where a function can be used or what kind of data is allowed to be passed into a given input parameter, and the ability to create a single Quagensia Function that can accept data of many different data types.
- Create different kinds of loops, and even create loops inside of loops that are inside of other loops, to execute the same trading logic multiple times. Actions such as "Exit Out of This Loop" and "Continue Back to the Loop Condition of This Loop" give you total control over loop execution.
- Create "Conditional Trading Logic (If... Else If... Else)" blocks with an unlimited number of "Else If" blocks, allowing your trading logic to execute only if a condition is true, if a condition is true and all conditions above it are false, or if all conditions in all "If" and "Else If" blocks in the entire "Conditional Trading Logic" block are false. You can even create "If... Else If... Else" blocks inside of other "If... Else If... Else" blocks that are inside of other "If... Else If... Else" blocks, create loops inside of those "If... Else If... Else" blocks, and create nested "If... Else If... Else" blocks inside of nested loops.
- Quagensia makes it easy to create and use lists, single-dimensional arrays, and multi-dimensional arrays of data of the Quagensia data types that represent a single value, such as numbers, dates, times, colors, items selected from a list of choices, text, or Booleans (true or false). You may not start out using lists and arrays on day one, but soon enough you will probably find that the use of lists and arrays is the only way to accomplish an intermediate or advanced level task, and you will realize that lack of support for lists and arrays would severely limit your ability to create advanced trading strategies.
- Quagensia N Edition's innovative Quagensia Table System makes it easy to load tables of many kinds of data, not just time series data, from tabular data files into in-memory data tables that you can query, modify, and then write back to tabular data files on disk from your strategies. If you have valuable data in Microsoft Excel files, a database such as Microsoft SQL Server, SQLite, or MySQL, if you have access to exotic data via Bloomberg® Terminal®, Refinitiv® Eikon®, or another high end institutional platform, if you have tabular data output from MATLAB® or R, or if you have access to alternative data sources on the internet, it is generally very easy to get these kinds of data into comma-delimited, semicolon-delimited, or otherwise character-delimited tabular data files. And once you do, it is easy to get all of this data, even entire databases of data, into your NinjaTrader® strategies by simply clicking choices on a screen in Quagensia N Edition. You can also create in-memory data tables and populate them with data from scratch, i.e. not from tabular data files, and then create, modify, and delete rows from these in-memory data tables. Regardless of how you create your in-memory data tables, Quagensia N Edition makes it easy to write that data to tabular data files on disk. This allows you to run a backtest or optimization of a NinjaTrader® strategy that outputs a report containing tabular data that you can load into any database, use as input data in MATLAB® or R, or load into Microsoft Excel to manipulate further and use to create visually powerful charts and graphs that answer your questions about the markets in ways that backtest performance reports cannot. All features just described work with data columns of 89 different types of data including: 10 numeric data types, 3 date/time data types, colors, Booleans (true or false), text, and 73 "lists of choices" data types such as the months of the year or the days of the week.
- Quagensia N Edition and Quagensia T Edition make it easy to create, modify, and delete the equivalent of rows of data using the equivalent of in-memory data tables by using multiple parallel arrays or lists and then writing that data to data files on disk. This allows you to run a backtest or optimization of a NinjaTrader® or TradeStation® strategy that outputs a report containing tabular data that you can load into any database, use as input data in MATLAB® or R, or load into Microsoft Excel to manipulate further and use to create visually powerful charts and graphs that answer your questions about the markets in ways that backtest performance reports cannot.
- Quagensia has excellent time series support. Create your own "Editable Time Series" whose data you set in the "When Bar Updates" event of your Quagensia Strategy. Use "Read-Only Time Series" in Quagensia T Edition to gain access to TradeStation®'s indicators and primary and secondary price bar data. Use "Indicator Time Series" in Quagensia N Edition to gain access to NinjaTrader®'s built-in indicators, both those with a single plot and multiple plots, and gain access to third-party indicators from within Quagensia N Edition by quickly and easily creating a connection to them. Use "Secondary Price Bars" internal variables in Quagensia N Edition to set up and gain access to NinjaTrader®'s secondary price bar time series. Plot time series data on the charts to which your trading strategy is attached, loop through many items in any kind of time series using Quagensia loop actions to calculate a numeric value or determine if a complex chart pattern occurred, or pass any kind of time series into any Quagensia Function's input parameter whose type is "Read-Only Time Series".
- Quagensia Strategies allow you to create many kinds of advanced input parameters that can be set from within the NinjaTrader® or TradeStation® user interface, allowing your trading strategy to behave in more than a single hard-coded way and also to be optimized and used in walk-forward tests.
- Quagensia Strategies allow you to create many kinds of advanced internal variables used to store values that are part of the internal logic of your strategy. You can set a variable on one bar or tick and then use the value stored in that variable on a future bar or tick.
- Quagensia makes it easy to create advanced conditions and combine them into a set of conditions that returns true or false as a group based on the interplay between what each condition returns and how the conditions are combined with ANDs, ORs, and parentheses. You can even use an advanced condition or set of conditions to set a Boolean (true or false) variable or pass the complex set of conditions into the input parameter of a Quagensia Function.
- Quagensia supports all of the core numeric data types that its target trading platforms support, not just standard whole numbers and standard decimal numbers. It also has a sophisticated user interface to add, subtract, multiply, or divide many simple or complex numeric expressions together, including the ability to use parentheses to ensure that the simple or complex expressions are added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided in a different order than the standard arithmetic "order of operations".
- You are not limited to entering values in text boxes and checking check boxes. For instance, if a location in your Quagensia Algo expects a number, that location can contain something as simple as a text box with a number in it, or it can contain a very complex expression made up of many nested expressions. Each of those nested expressions can have input parameters filled with other expressions whose input parameters are made up of even more nested expressions, and where each expression can actually be a complex arithmetic combination of many terms, such as the most complicated mathematical formulas in any advanced math textbook. This ability to create incredibly complex expressions at a location where a single expression of a certain data type is expected works on all simple data types such as dates, text, and Booleans. It also works on time series, and on individual items in time series, lists, and arrays, not just on numbers.
- If you have access to actual raw TradeStation® EasyLanguage® or NinjaTrader® NinjaScript® code or know how to program, you can use the Quagensia "Raw Code Output (Single or Multiple Statements)" action or the Quagensia "Raw Code Output" expression to embed actual raw code at a given location in your trading strategy, then insert your Quagensia Algo's input parameters or internal variables into the raw code.
- Quagensia has many built-in data types that can be represented as lists of named choices, such as the list of instrument types or bar period types supported by a trading platform.
- Quagensia Function authors with more advanced skills who work with lists, arrays, and time series will appreciate the ability to create a Quagensia Function with input parameters of data type "Wildcard (Any Simple Data Type)" and input parameters that are lists, arrays, or time series with the data type of their individual elements set to "Wildcard (Any Simple Data Type)". This makes it possible to create a single Quagensia Function that can accept data of many different data types which can then be used in a way similar to generic methods in C# and template functions in C++.
Decreases Strategy Development Time
- Build your strategy directly on the workspace without cascading windows constantly popping up and without having to tab through a bunch of tabs to locate a piece of trading logic. All of your trading strategy's logic is displayed on a single workspace with scroll bars. You can quickly read any Quagensia Strategy from top to bottom as you would read an article on the web or a Microsoft Word document. You can quickly change the trading logic of a Quagensia Algo at a location by clicking on that location. Quagensia will display a context-sensitive context menu showing only the trading logic that is valid at that location. The Quagensia user interface gets out of your way allowing you to build a trading strategy without having to constantly stop and think about how to use the Quagensia Desktop Application.
- The Quagensia user interface is better than "drag and drop." Instead of dragging and dropping a trading logic component from a toolbox of unfiltered choices on one part of the screen to your trading strategy on another part of the screen, Quagensia lets you add a trading logic component to your algo by simply clicking the location where you want to add it then choosing a valid trading logic component from a highly filtered context-sensitive context menu showing only the trading logic components allowed at the location you clicked. One major problem with "drag and drop" software is that the toolbox contains an unfiltered list of every trading logic component that the application supports, including those that are not valid at the location you want to place the component. This makes the list very long and slow to browse through, and gives a false indication of what all can be done at a certain location which is a common source of errors. Another major problem with "drag and drop" user interfaces is that you can never really get into the flow of your work. Being able to simply click on a location and pick from valid choices is much faster, protects you from creating invalid code, and allows you to focus on the location and trading logic components that are valid there.
- The Quagensia validation error system is highly advanced. It doesn't just protect you from generating bad code. It prevents you from creating many kinds of invalid trading logic in the first place. When you click on a location in your Quagensia Algo, the validation error system filters out all of the expressions or actions that are invalid at that location. So rather than letting you do invalid things and then displaying validation errors when you attempt to generate the code, the validation error system does everything it can to save you from making mistakes in the first place. It does this so well in fact, that the vast majority of validation errors programmed into the Quagensia validation error system will never be seen by a user unless they attempt to copy and paste trading logic from a valid location to an invalid location, ignoring the warning dialog box that tells them that the item is invalid at the new location. And even then, the validation error system will not allow the code to be generated. Instead, it will display the validation errors in a grid with rows explaining why the trading logic is invalid. When a row with an error is clicked, the location of the validation error in the algo scrolls into view.
- The Quagensia multi-tab, multi-"tab group" user interface makes it easy to work with multiple Quagensia Algos at the same time. You can open as many algo tabs as you want in the initial "tab group" in which the Start Page is open, and you also have the ability to create seven more tab groups in up to four columns and two rows. Use multiple tab groups to make it even easier to copy and paste trading logic between Quagensia Algos, visually compare multiple versions of the same Quagensia Algo side by side, or help you learn Quagensia interactively by opening an algo that you want to learn how to create in a tab group to the right of the main tab group so you can attempt to recreate it in the main tab group.
- Find the functions or strategies you are looking for with highly advanced search. Find a function, indicator, or keyword by all or part of its popular name or all or part of its representation in the code output when you see some code and want to locate the corresponding Quagensia Function in the Algo Explorer tree. You can even find all of the Quagensia Strategies and Quagensia Functions that use a Quagensia Function, even if that function is not called by the Quagensia Strategy or Quagensia Function directly. Search for only functions or only strategies. Search for only your own algos or only algos from Quagensia that are on your computer. Search all algos or restrict your search to only the Quagensia Functions allowed at a certain location in your Quagensia Strategy or Quagensia Function. You can even search the Quagensia.com website using the Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, You.com, and Brave search engines from within Quagensia.
Perfect for Sharing
- Quagensia Strategies and Quagensia Functions are easy to share. They are standard Windows files that you can email, post in forums, or share via a shared drive in the cloud.
- The "Export Algo as Image" window allows you to export an image of a Quagensia Algo to a file on disk or to the clipboard. You can post these images to your website and social media channels, pages and feeds either exactly as they are exported or after editing the images in any image editing software. The exported image of a Quagensia Algo looks the same as it does when loaded inside of Quagensia, so images of Quagensia Algos posted on the web are just as easy to understand as they are when loaded in the Quagensia Desktop Application.
Additional Features
- You can use Quagensia on a PC, on a Mac using Parallels Desktop or VMware Fusion, on a virtual private server (VPS), or in your own private cloud.
- Your trading strategies are private to you. They stay on your computer. Learn More
- Quagensia Functions allow you to work with programmers on your Quagensia Strategy without them seeing any part of your Quagensia Strategy's trading logic except the code they created based on your specifications. For example, you can pay a programmer to write 500 lines of code inside of a function written in TradeStation®'s EasyLanguage® programming language or NinjaTrader®'s NinjaScript® programming language that returns a Boolean (true or false) to indicate if an extremely complicated chart pattern has occurred. The programmer can then email you that code with instructions on how to quickly and easily get it into the trading platform. Then either you or the programmer can quickly and easily create a very simple Quagensia Function that uses the function containing the 500 lines of code. You can use that Quagensia Function visually and codelessly with just two clicks on your Quagensia Algo's workspace. This can all be done without the programmer having access to any of your trading logic other than the chart pattern that they programmed, and without the need for you to program anything yourself.
- With the exception of Quagensia N Edition strategies that use the innovative Quagensia N Edition "Tables of Data" and "Control Panels" features, which require separate Quagensia Runtime Dlls, Quagensia generates the complete code in plain text format for its Quagensia Strategies. This trading strategy code works as-is from within your trading platform, even on computers without a Quagensia installation. This makes Quagensia Strategies easy to deploy. No need to worry about installing the Quagensia Desktop Application or other components such as dlls or Windows libraries on any computers on which you will be using the trading strategies from within your trading platform. This also allows 100% of the trading logic to be readable and hand-editable by you or a programmer working for you. It also makes it easy to ask questions about the trading strategy code in the NinjaTrader® and TradeStation® programming forums since you have the actual code that programmers will need to read to be able to help you. If your trading strategy isn't behaving as you would expect, no one has to worry about the problem being hidden in some Quagensia executable, dll, or Windows library. In contrast, if your trading strategy relies on some other executable code whose source you don't have access to because it is compiled in an executable, dll, or Windows library, then neither you nor the talented people in the forums will always be able to find the code that was causing the problem. The NinjaTrader® and TradeStation® programming forums are great places to get free help with your trading strategies from highly talented programmers as long as you can show them 100% of the code with which you need help. Finally, since Quagensia provides you with the complete code for your strategy in plain text format, this also allows you to compare versions of your trading strategy code, either manually by reading the plain text files or automatically by using a "version control" (also called "source control") system that any programmer can help you set up.
- Quagensia Strategy files are a better way to store a trading strategy than storing only the plain text code for a trading strategy because Quagensia Strategy files are self-repairing, unlike loose code files. "Self-repairing" means that the code that a future version of Quagensia generates for a trading strategy stored as a Quagensia Strategy file can be better than the code generated from the current version of Quagensia. For example, if a new version of NinjaTrader® or TradeStation® comes out and the release notes for the new version recommend doing something in a different way due to changes in the platform, a new version of the Quagensia Desktop Application can be created that you can download and use to regenerate your trading strategy's code so that it follows the new recommendations from the release notes for the trading platform's new version. Furthermore, the Quagensia validation error system can be improved in new versions of Quagensia so that you can be alerted that a part of your trading logic that wasn't considered dangerous or wrong by an older version of Quagensia is now considered dangerous or wrong. Since Quagensia outputs a plain text code file, you can always compare the newly generated code with your older code and ask questions in a Quagensia forum or the NinjaTrader® or TradeStation® programming forums to confirm that the newer version of the code is actually better.
- Quagensia protects your hard work in multiple ways. First, the undo/redo feature allows you to undo mistakes as it allows you to go back through many versions of your Quagensia Algo and pick the correct one. Second, the Quagensia "Manage Backups" window allows you to back up either your "My Algos" folder or your entire Quagensia User Folder. Finally, since each Quagensia Algo file and each of the code files that Quagensia generates are simple Windows files rather than being lumped together with all of your algos in a single database, this provides two major advantages: First, it makes it very easy to revert an individual Quagensia Algo file or individual code file to an earlier state by restoring just that one file from a nightly file system backup that can be easily configured in Microsoft Windows. Second, advanced users can set up a "version control" system that makes it easy to revert to an older version of a single Quagensia Algo file or generated code file from within the version control system.
- And many more features that you will continue to discover as you progress on your journey with Quagensia.
