Infinity AT trade performance analysis?

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

Every day I save my trades from the InfinityAT platform to the hard drive in .csv format. This means I can open them in a spreadsheet program (excel, openoffice).

 

This is a nice feature and all, but the problem is I trade far too many round turns to make any sense of all the data.

 

What I want to know is whether anyone knows how to turn this raw data into some kind of summary, ala ninjatrader's performance analysis tab;

I don't need anything remotely that complicated in terms of performance analysis, but a summary of the number of trades, percentage profitable, etc would be obviously very useful.

 

I'm surprised Infinity don't offer this kind of script built into the software. Has anyone else found a solution to my question?

 

P.S. The reason I've posted this here is the forum subsection is sponsored by Infinity AT.

 

Thanks in advance

Be aware that the simulator and the real trade is different using Infinity AT. Order in the simulator are easily got filled, and you can easily make money. In my experience, it will be a new learning curve from the transition from simulator to real money. The filled and the slippage especially.

Thanks for your concern beginner, but I've already been trading a real account with Infinity for months. My experience with them has been very positive.

 

Anyone got a suggestion or solution to the original post?

 

Thank you again

If it's not possible with their platform you can only go looking for a third party tool or put something yourself together with excel or have someone write a piece of software for you.

 

I tried to spin my own tool for my old broker, got pretty far but ran into some problems.

I suppose the data you get is opening of a position, price entered, instrument, number of lots and close of position, price exited, instrument, number of lots.

 

What you'd need to add manually is the $point value per instrument and comes the difficult part. If you always have only one trade on and your money management strategy doesn't include partial profit taking all is fine and dandy. If not, it's hard to tell which lot belongs to which trade especially if you have more than one trade per instrument on at a time.

 

Gross profit/loss should be easy to calculate with an excel though.

Hope you can find some tool or at least make infinity aware of what is lacking in their software.

Another a bit drastic measure would be to switch to NT, guess it's free for trading Infinity anyway.

 

Good luck

I'm surprised Infinity does not offer something so simple in their platform. Open ECry has something like you are looking for, fyi. I would actually like more, but we'll see if TraderDNA can get off their butts and get it done...

Thanks for the fast replies chaps. :)

 

I too am surprised there isn't a summary tab built into InfinityAT to achieve what I'm asking for.

 

The only other option as Sparrow suggested is to write a 3rd party piece of software which I can import the .csv data into and calculate a summary from, similar to ninjatrader. But that's quite alot of hassle for something so simple.

 

I could switch to NT but I really like InfinityAT.

 

I highly doubt Infinity will make any changes to the software if just one client wants the performance summary, but if there's any other Infinity customers here who would like this functionality, maybe we could form some kind of petition. Strength in numbers and all that.

Stone - that is one thing I love about Open ECry - they do in fact listen to their customers and take all suggestions into consideration. And sometimes even if it's just ONE client. I am speaking from personal experience. Hard to beat that in my opinion.

Hi treadstone,

 

If they have a board mention it there, maybe people will pile on your request and they'll implement it. Shouldn't take up a huge slice of their development budget, key would be to get it near the top of their priority list, since it's no big help if something so fairly simple but so useful gets done within a year.

 

Start the riot!:fight:

    • Back in the early 2000s, Netflix mailed DVDs to subscribers.   It wasn’t sexy—but it was smart. No late fees. No driving to Blockbuster.   People subscribed because they were lazy. Investors bought the stock because they realized everyone else is lazy too.   Those who saw the future in that red envelope? They could’ve caught a 10,000%+ move.   Another story…   Back in the mid-2000s, Amazon launched Prime.   It wasn’t flashy—but it was fast.   Free two-day shipping. No minimums. No hassle.   People subscribed because they were impatient. Investors bought the stock because they realized everyone hates waiting.   Those who saw the future in that speedy little yellow button? They could’ve caught another 10,000%+ move.   Finally…   Back in 2011, Bitcoin was trading under $10.   It wasn’t regulated—but it worked.   No bank. No middleman. Just wallet to wallet.   People used it to send money. Investors bought it because they saw the potential.   Those who saw something glimmering in that strange orange coin? They could’ve caught a 100,000%+ move.   The people who made those calls weren’t fortune tellers. They just noticed something simple before others did.   A better way. A quiet shift. A small edge. An asymmetric bet.   The red envelope fixed late fees. The yellow button fixed waiting. The orange coin gave billions a choice.   Of course, these types of gains are rare. And they happen only once in a blue moon. That’s exactly why it’s important to notice when the conditions start to look familiar.   Not after the move. Not once it's on CNBC. But in the quiet build-up— before the surface breaks.   Enter the Blue Button Please read more here: https://altucherconfidential.com/posts/netflix-amazon-bitcoin-blue  Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/ 
    • What These Attacks Look Like There are several ways you could get hacked. And the threats compound by the day.   Here’s a quick rundown:   Phishing: Fake emails from your “bank.” Click the link, give your password—game over.   Ransomware: Malware that locks your files and demands crypto. Pay up, or it’s gone.   DDoS: Overwhelm a website with traffic until it crashes. Like 10,000 bots blocking the door. Often used by nations.   Man-in-the-Middle: Hackers intercept your messages on public WiFi and read or change them.   Social Engineering: Hackers pose as IT or drop infected USB drives labeled “Payroll.”   You don’t need to be “important” to be a target.   You just need to be online.   What You Can Do (Without Buying a Bunker) You don’t have to be tech-savvy.   You just need to stop being low-hanging fruit.   Here’s how:   Use a YubiKey (physical passkey device) or Authenticator app – Ditch text message 2FA. SIM swaps are real. Hackers often have people on the inside at telecom companies.   Use a password manager (with Yubikey) – One unique password per account. Stop using your dog’s name.   Update your devices – Those annoying updates patch real security holes. Use them.   Back up your files – If ransomware hits, you don’t want your important documents held hostage.   Avoid public WiFi for sensitive stuff – Or use a VPN.   Think before you click – Emails that feel “urgent” are often fake. Go to the websites manually for confirmation.   Consider Starlink in case the internet goes down – I think it’s time for me to make the leap. Don’t Panic. Prepare. (Then Invest.)   I spent an hour in that basement bar reading about cyberattacks—and watching real-world systems fall apart like dominos.   The internet going down used to be an inconvenience. Now, it’s a warning.   Cyberwar isn’t coming. It’s here.   And the next time your internet goes out, it might not just be your router.   Don’t panic. Prepare.   And maybe keep a backup plan in your back pocket. Like a local basement bar with good bourbon—and working WiFi.   As usual, we’re on the lookout for more opportunities in cybersecurity. Stay tuned.   Author: Chris Campbell (AltucherConfidential) Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
