Hello, I go by TradeQuantiX online and I am a multi-country equities systematic trader actively managing my personal stock portfolio. My passion for the markets was sparked when I was a young teenager; my father had me open a brokerage account with a small sum of money to teach me the value and importance of investing. By 2020, I was tired of achieving only average market returns through passive investing and yearned for more. Realizing that a life in the corporate world wasn't for me, I aimed to consistently outperform market average returns, seeking financial freedom sooner. With my engineering and science background, systematic trading emerged as the ideal approach. The systematic trading methodology is a data and research-driven approach, which matches my personality and allows me to focus on mastering the financial markets. I've dedicated years and thousands of hours to coding, development, and research working towards mastering systematic trading. This journey has been rewarding in numerous ways, and I look forward to continuing to learn from the markets in the coming years.

The mission of TradeQuantiX Systematic Trading Solutions is to empower aspiring systematic traders to seize control of their financial futures. I am dedicated to demystifying the complexities of systematic trading through a range of services including consulting, trading strategy development & evaluation, and a systematic trading newsletter. My goal is to bridge the divide from novice to expert, guiding individuals from having no idea where to start to managing a fully operational systematic trading portfolio. This commitment aims to unlock the full potential of systematic trading for everyone, as I firmly believe systematic trading is an essential component to everyone’s investment portfolio.
My personal systematic trading portfolio consists of over 25 individual strategies, and that number continues to grow over time. These strategies span multiple global stock markets and employ a variety of techniques to identify the best stocks to hold at any given moment. On their own, none of these strategies are exceptional. The real strength emerges when multiple uncorrelated strategies are blended together into a single portfolio, which produces a far more compelling outcome. See the plot for my backtested systematic trading portfolio equity curve.
Portfolio Equity Curve
Drawdown Plot
In the portfolio equity curve, the blue line represents the backtested returns of the entire portfolio, while the numerous lines at the bottom show the contributions of the individual strategies. The portfolio’s equity growth is compelling, but it’s not without its challenges—drawdowns still occur. During tough market conditions, my portfolio has historically experienced drawdowns of up to 21%. This level of risk aligns with my personal risk tolerance and portfolio objectives. The underwater drawdown plot illustrates this in more detail.
The goal of this portfolio is to outperform the broader market while maintaining lower drawdowns and less volatility than the market average. Historically, day-to-day portfolio value changes have been 1% or less a majority of the time, with only rare instances of larger swings exceeding 3%. This low volatility suits me well—it keeps my stress levels in check and prevents sleepless nights over sudden, dramatic shifts in portfolio value.
