Vix

Hi All,

I’m not a programmer in any way but I was wondering if it’s possible to use the Vix index as part of the trading entries. It would read the Vix index from an external website and if it’s above / below a certain value, will trade or not trade. Does anyone know how to do this in the most simple way for a non programmer?

Many thanks

there is some implementation to add also custom data, but i can see only function how to add data from only the indicators from the trading platform…

dont know exactly if there is implemented if we want to import the data for example from CSV itself – like COT report, etc.

Hello,

basically you have 2 options now:

if you have an indicator that can use COT data to provide some signaling output you can use this data (not directly VIX) to import it into SQX and build systems based on that “indicator” and its data export into CSV. Check https://strategyquant.com/doc/strategyquant/custom-data-indicators/
In case of VIX you have also an option to import VIX data (like for any other instrument) into SQX and build multi-timeframe strategies. It will reference VIX data to create signals for your main trading instrument

Let me know if any questions

Risk Disclosure:
Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure:
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
