Free ninjatrader strategies - getting started

Originally from ticket #2454.

Hi,

I downloaded the Free NinjaTrade Strategies and tested them out with the symbol "SPY" on different time frames including 1, 2, 3, and 5 minute charts for a total of 7 months period. When I run the performance summery and view the equity curve , all the strategies have a declining curve and EVERY SINGLE strategy losses money over the 7 month period.

Am I doing something wrong here because none of these strategies make money over time??? I'ts funny because if I take any one of the strategies and do exactly the opposite when I get a signal, then I would definitely make money and see a rising equity curve over the 7 months period..... Very confused!

Thanks
Bijan

you can always chose to fade the signal - using the Fade Signal Parameter.

Please start here with signals indicators:

Then look at the MT Easy Trader parameterts

Then look at something like the MT Open Range Strategy
So you can see all the parameters from the signals indicator and the trade engine in one place
